This nutritive and beneficial tea is made with:
Nettles: one of my FAVORITE nutritive herbs for tea and food, nettles is full of iron, potassium, magnesium and copper. It can help balance electrolytes, keep anemia at bay, and aid in the absorption assimilation of other micronutrients. It also helps to nourish the blood with Vitamins A, C, K + B.
Oatstraw: loaded with iron, magnesium, and calcium as well as Vitamin D and E. It is often used to nourish the nervous system, it adds a rich and nutty flavor to the tea, and is very moistening which helps to offset the dryness of the nettles.
Red Raspberry Leaf: Red Raspberry Leaf is touted traditionally by herbalists and midwives to have many uterine benefits for pregnant and soon-to-be postpartum moms. It is rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants + it strengthens the uterus and is both anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial.
Rosehips: one of nature's richest sources of Vitamin C and antioxidants, rosehips add a nice flavor to the tea and help boost your immune system keeping you healthy during pregnancy and postpartum.
Mint: As a gentle and tasty digestive, mint can work great at easing digestion, nausea, heartburn & bloating.
I drank a version of this throughout my pregnancy, postpartum, and even now because it makes me feel so good and helps me fill some nutritional gaps in my diet.
