Quick Facts

Vitamart's Take

Red raspberry leaf is one of the best-known herbs for late pregnancy, and this tincture is a simple, certified organic way to take it. The important thing is timing: the label is clear that it is only for the final 8–10 weeks of pregnancy, so talk to your midwife, doctor or naturopath about when to begin. Taking a few drops in a little water is far easier for many women than drinking several cups of tea a day.

How St. Francis Red Raspberry Leaf Compares

Tincture vs. raspberry leaf tea

Tea is the traditional way to take raspberry leaf but takes time to brew. The tincture gives a measured dose in a few drops of liquid.

Red raspberry vs. Menstrual Tonic

St. Francis Menstrual Tonic (formerly Dong Quai Combo) is a uterine tonic for menstrual pain, not a late-pregnancy herb. Red raspberry leaf is the herb aimed at late pregnancy and childbirth.

Red raspberry vs. Crampbark

St. Francis Crampbark is a traditional antispasmodic herb used for menstrual cramps. Red raspberry leaf is a uterine tonic used before childbirth.
