raspberry leaf

rubus idaeus

Astringent herbs eradicate excess moisture, bolstering the tone & structure of tissues throughout the body to that they can retain optimal fluid levels & transport them efficiently through the body’s systems. So yes, they are technically drying, but in a way that helps to maintain ideal, balanced moisture presence in all the right places.

This astringent quality helps tighten up the intestinal permeability associated with leaky gut, so that toxins & bacteria can be processed correctly rather than escaping into the bloodstream to wreak havoc in the body.

By toning our veins, this astringent quality lends itself to healthy circulation with a particular affinity for the uterus. Raspberry leaf tones the uterus, so that it is in optimal muscular shape. A strong uterus means more efficient, effective & comfortable muscle contractions; this makes a monumental difference when it comes to menstrual cramps as well as CHILDBIRTH & post-partum recovery.

Look to raspberry leaf as support when navigating endometriosis, and to reduce pregnancy complications & to set up for an efficient birth.

Rich in flavonoids, iron & vitamins C & E, raspberry leaf is a reputable, tonic nutritive, and a great addition to a prenatal routine.

We harvest ours in the wild in Northern Vermont.*
