Raspberry Leaf Tea As A General Ailment Aid?

Do any of you drink Raspberry Leaf Tea?

I read it, like chamomile, is helpful in healing celiacs.

Whether it's for healthy skin, menstrual aid, mood managment, vitimins, anything else, does it work for you?

Is it considered safe for those of us who have naturally lower blood sugar and pressure?

Raspberry leaf is one of the few substances that's actually recommended for pregnant women (it's supposed to "tone" your uterus and make contractions more efficient). I tried it... I can't really say that I noticed much of a difference... but it's certainly safe to consume as a supplement or tea.

I adore raspberry leaf tea! Not only is it free of caffeine, it tastes delicious and helps boost fertility, tone female organs, and of course is used to help pregnant women. I haven't noticed any negative side effects from it - I stopped drinking it for a while because I've been on a rollercoaster of feeling great and then miserable lately and I'm trying to narrow down why I feel that way.

I haven't heard of any reason not to drink it - my mom started giving it to me to help my cramps when I was just a kid.

You will get a laugh out of this but our holistic vet recommends it for females in the breeding cycle..... I'm passed that cycle so I don't buy it much any more!!!!!

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
