Bio Health Raspberry Leaf is traditionally used during the last trimester of pregnancy to strengthen and tone the uterine and pelvic muscles and during labour to assist contractions and to check a haemorrhage. It's believed that the alkaloid fragarine is responsible for these properties.
Raspberry leaf contains high amounts of tannins, so the resulting astringent action makes it a beneficial herb in treating heavy or irregular periods as well as diarrhoea and irritable bowel conditions. The calcium and magnesium content of the leaves may also help alleviate muscle spasms and PMS cramps.
Rich in nutrients, it can also enrich and encourage the flow of breast milk.
A cooling herb, raspberry leaf tea, can help to reduce fever, and an infusion of the herb may be used as a gargle for tonsillitis or as an eyewash in conjunctivitis.
