Raspberry Leaves

Botanical name: (Rubus idaeus)

Also Known As: Blackcap, whinberry, myrtle blueberry

Raspberry leaves are employed for their astringent and stimulant properties. Supporters recommend a strong infusion (tea) as a gargle or mouthwash for sore mouth and inflammation of the mucous membrane of the throat, as well as for various wounds and ulcers when applied locally to them. The moistened leaves may also be applied externally as a poultice. Drinking cold raspberry leaf tea as a remedy for diarrhea is said to give immediate relief to that and to various stomach ailments.

Raspberry leaves are the most famous of all herbs used during pregnancy. They have both relaxing and toning or astringent actions, with a particular affinity for the uterus. Their astringent and stimulating properties help to strengthen and tone up the uterine and pelvic muscles, while the relaxing and more soothing properties relax the uterus at the same time.

Raspberry leaves also tone the mucous membranes throughout the body, soothe the kidneys and urinary tract and are useful for allaying diarrhea and stopping hemorrhage. They have digestive properties which are effective in quelling nausea in pregnancy and are also sedative and relaxant. Throughout history, raspberry leaves have been used principally to encourage a safe, easy and speedy childbirth, as well as afterwards to stimulate milk production and to speed recovery from the birth. Their tonic and relaxant actions on the smooth muscle of the uterus act to reduce the pain of uterine contractions during childbirth and also make the contractions more effective and productive, thereby easing and shortening the duration of the birth.

Raspberry leaves are best taken as a warm infusion. From the third month onwards you can take a cupful once a day, and from the sixth month, three times daily. When the birth is imminent, one teaspoon of composition essence can be added to each cup of tea, and, once contractions begin, it should be taken one cupful an hour while you can. Once the digestive system shuts down, sips of the tea, or a few drops on the tongue taken as often as possible will be helpful. Continue with this mixture after the birth, once to three times daily, to tone and strengthen the pelvic tissues.
