Good for all seasons. Hot in winter. Cold in summer. And good for women of all ages. Supports a healthy uterus for your whole life. Increases fertility in women. Prevents miscarriage and postpartum hemorrhage. Supports labor and after birth.
Can be enjoyed during the whole pregnancy. Ease nausea, and is supportive of reducing leg cramp's (magnesium and potassium, phosphorous and calcium). 

As a cold drink it is more like having juice. It was the first 'juice' my son had when he was little. The natural sweetness makes it a better choice for a drink for the little people in your life rather than heavy sugared drinks.

The list of articles on the wonderfully supportive raspberry leaf tea is long. Here is just a few to have a look at.

February 2016, I participated in the most amazing health supporting course. Visceral Manipulation with the Barral Institute. WOW!!! What an amazing experience. I had no idea that I had such restrictions. I have probably saved myself from gallbladder and liver and many other visceral complications. 

Visceral work is not painful and is direct work to the organs. I am liking the feed back from the people on the table. I have heard both ends of the scale on this one. "Didn't notice any difference." " That was amazing, let's do that again." " Everything moved." "It was the best thing to get my bowels and whole body moving again." "Can't put in words how I feel, it just feels better"

What I noticed in my own body when I took the program was that my body now feels more flexible. There is a freeing of and the release of pressure to many areas of the body. What I thought was a bra line pressure from the wrong size bra, was actually a liver immobility issue. The restrictions with my right knee and left shoulder are gone from the release of bowel related ligaments and organ specific work. The body is wonderfully made and complicated with interconnections deep within.
