Labor

Raspberry Leaf

Red raspberry leaf is a beloved herbal remedy traditionally used in the final weeks of pregnancy to help the body prepare for labor. Packed with essential nutrients like iron, calcium, and vitamins A, C, and E, its standout benefit is its ability to tone and strengthen the uterine muscles. This gentle toning action may help the uterus contract more effectively during labor, supporting a smoother and potentially shorter birthing process. Beyond labor support, red raspberry leaf is also thought to promote hormonal balance and reduce the risk of certain complications during childbirth. Many midwives and herbalists recommend sipping red raspberry leaf tea as a natural way to nurture and strengthen the body in the weeks leading up to delivery.

Tip: Best used after 35 weeks of pregnancy.
