Common Uses
Midwifes have used Raspberry Leaf since ancient times as a uterine tonic, in particular throughout the last trimester of pregnancy where it is used to prepare the uterus for childbirth. This toning herb is also traditionally used in Western Herbal Medicine for the relief of heavy, painful periods (dysmenorrhoea) due to its antispasmodic properties.
It is thought Raspberry Leaf contains a constituent named ‘fragarine’ which has been shown to have a relaxing effect on the pregnant uterus. Studies suggest that raspberry leaf may regulate the action of the uterine muscle, facilitating labour.
