Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Raspberry (Rubus idaeus), especially in the form of raspberry leaf tea, has a long history of traditional use for various women's health conditions, including nausea and vomiting, particularly during pregnancy. Historical and ethnobotanical records suggest that raspberry leaf was commonly recommended by herbalists and midwives as a remedy for morning sickness and to tone the uterus. However, scientific studies specifically evaluating the effectiveness of raspberry or raspberry leaf for nausea and vomiting are extremely limited and generally of low quality. Most modern research on raspberry leaf has focused on its potential role in labor and delivery, not on gastrointestinal symptoms. The available scientific literature does not provide robust evidence to support its efficacy for nausea and vomiting. Its traditional use is primarily anecdotal and based on historical texts rather than rigorous clinical trials. As a result, while raspberry has a traditional reputation for supporting nausea and vomiting, especially in the context of pregnancy, this is not validated by high-quality scientific research, and it should not be relied upon as a primary treatment without consulting a healthcare professional.
