Red Raspberry Leaf
At every stage of life, Red Raspberry Leaf is an absolute must-have for any woman. It is a classic uterine tonic, supporting the uterus in pregnancy and helping to prepare for birth. It is also a rich source of iron and calcium, both of which are essential for pregnancy.
Nettle
is a supreme nourisher, providing the body with a bioavailable form of iron, protein, calcium, vitamins A, D, C, and K, and chlorophyll, as well as trace minerals such as selenium, sulfur, zinc, chromium, and boron. The presence of vitamin K makes nettle an anti-hemorrhagic plant, supporting the healthy clotting of blood. This is especially relevant when pregnant. Nettle when drunk regularly in the third trimester, can support healthy levels of vitamin K in the body and help prevent postpartum hemorrhage while also deeply supporting the pregnant body's supply of iron and other necessary minerals. Nettle also strengthens blood vessels which can help prevent hemorrhoids.
Oatstraw
is rich in both calcium and magnesium. Calcium and magnesium work together in the body, with calcium stimulating muscles to contract and magnesium relaxing them. In this way, it's thought by herbalists and midwives that oatstraw can be particularly valuable for pregnant women. Calcium tones the muscles and the cardiovascular system, and improving circulation both in the mother's body and, naturally, to her baby as well. Magnesium then, by contrast, helps those muscles to relax, easing cramps, restless legs, as well as improving sleep.
Alfalfa
a highly nourishing herb for all body organs with its high level of nutrient content that is readily bioavailable. Alfalfa has a large variety of minerals and rare elements. Silicon, phosphorous, chlorine, sodium, potassium, calcium, iron, and magnesium are just a few of the many minerals present in it. A number of vitamins are present in the herb as well, such as vitamin K, E, and C. The proportion of vitamin K is the highest, which makes it quite beneficial in helping the blood to coagulate and preventing haemorrhage.
Lemon Balm
gives this pregnancy tea delightful, mellow lemon-like flavor. Lemon Balm is a cheerful herb that aims to spread joy and happiness everywhere possible. Its hefty antioxidant content along with nerve-calming properties makes it perfect for pregnancy. In traditional, folk medicine, lemon balm is also used for digestive upset, and headaches.
Rose Hip
bring a light and pleasant tartness to the tea. Rosehips are rich in bioflavonoids and vitamin C, and it's that vitamin C that works synergistically with iron to help your body with absorbtion.
Rose Buds
have a relaxing effect, helping to lower stress levels and encourage sleep. They can improve digestion, are high in antioxidents and reduces inflammation. Rose buds also bring pleasant floral notes and a lovely feminine energy to the tea.
This tea is suitable from second trimester of pregnancy, and can be enjoyed hot or cold
