Raspberry is also known as a woman's herb - has been researched for years and it has demonstrated a strong list of health benefits when it comes to women's health. Teacurry Red Raspberry tea is made from the leaves of the raspberry plant known by the botanical name Rubus idaeus. Teacurry Raspberry leaves are procured from the Himalayas - the Uttarakhand region. Raspberry leaves are characterized by a slightly silver lining that features delicate hairs. This tea can be brewed using the dried raspberry elves from our 100 per cent natural packs. You can find both loose leaf tea packages and tea bags to make brewing simpler and faster. The flavour of raspberry tea is similar to a fruity black tea such as Earl Grey. It boasts a full body and notes of fruity and earthy tastes. This herbal tisane features a flavour profile similar to rose hips and hibiscus tea. It is slightly sweeter and bolder than chamomile tea. - Packed With Nutrients - Red raspberry tea contains vitamins and minerals that are beneficial to human health, the immune system, and cellular processes. Red raspberry leaves contain vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, and B vitamins. These vitamins help support health by preventing oxidative stress and improving cellular processes such as energy expenditure. The leaves also contain calcium, magnesium, and potassium. These minerals help to promote healthy digestion and strong bones. In addition, raspberry tea contains antioxidants, which help protect against free radicals that can cause oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is the human body's form of rust and can cause a host of issues from increased risk of serious disease to premature ageing. - Reduces Menstrual Cramps - Red raspberry leaves are chock full of fragrance — a compound that is known to inhibit uterine activity. This can be beneficial for people who have difficulty controlling bowel movements and urination. In particular, the herb is used by pregnant women to reduce the frequent urge to urinate. A study published in Planta Medica found that ingredients in red raspberry including fragrance help to tighten muscles in the pelvic region. This can result in a decreased sensation of cramps and the urge to pee. Researchers also found that plants may help to alleviate other menstrual symptoms including nausea. - Raspberry leaves also contain iron, which may have benefits during menstruation. Women who experience heavy periods are more susceptible to anaemia. Increasing iron intake can combat this increased risk and prevent side effects such as fatigue and irritability. - Shortens Labour -Midwives and alternative health practitioners use raspberry tea to shorten the duration of labour. The idea is that compounds such as fragrance help to strengthen the pelvic area and lead to an easier labour. Research published in the Austrian College of Midwives Incorporated Journal examined the impacts of red raspberry on labour. The study consisted of a total of 108 mothers who were divided into two groups: an experimental group that took a red raspberry and a control group. Researchers found that the participants who took raspberry had a decreased risk of artificial rupture of their membranes and were less likely to require a C-section. Additionally, the results showed a decrease in preterm labour and a shorter labour duration overall. A second study published in the Journal of Midwifery and Women's Health found that red raspberry tea did not decrease the time of first-stage labour. It had some moderate improvements in shortening the duration of second-stage labour. The researchers concluded that more studies are needed to investigate and establish the benefits of this tea on labour duration. - Decreases Childbirth Risks - Some research shows that drinking red raspberry tea may help to decrease complications during childbirth. The uterine tonic works to strengthen uterine muscles and may help prevent complications such as eclampsia. Research shows that taking red raspberry leaves may reduce the risk of needing forceps during childbirth. Overall, the tea may also reduce the risk of interventions during the childbirth process. This allows for a more natural birth and decreases the chance of serious problems such as excessive bleeding.
