Raspberry benefits

Medicinal Properties:

Despite the variety of folk applications, raspberry's most extensive use is to alleviate menstrual discomfort and facilitate childbirth. The little research conducted on the plant in these regards is contradictory. Some studies say that it can either relax or stimulate uterine muscles. Other experiments have found that it relaxes the uterus only during pregnancy. Still other studies show a uterine influence regardless of pregnancy. In pregnancy, the extract apparently normalizes uterine contractions and reduces their frequency. Scientists have isolated one substance in the extract that arouses smooth muscles, particularly those in the uterus, and another substance that quells uterine spasms.

Other phytochemicals in raspberry, notably the tannins, are astringent and help control some viruses and bacteria.
