Biology:Red raspberry leaf
From HandWiki
The red raspberry leaf (Rubus idaeus), also known as garden raspberry leaf, is produced by the deciduous raspberry plant and used in folk remedies.[1]
Use in pregnancy
Traditional lore suggests that pregnant women use raspberry leaf tea, especially as an aid in delivery.[2] However, scientific research has found little to no evidence to support this claim.[3] Most of the evidence available is anecdotal, and a 2009 review article stressed concern at the lack of evidence for safety and efficacy and called recommendations of its use "questionable".[3]
