Nettle Leaf

Category:

Nettle has traditionally been combined with raspberry leaf for nutrition and is a great source of iron, vitamin C, and other nourishing nutrients, so women would use it to strengthen their systems. Nettle was particularly prized by women who wanted to restore and replenish themselves after giving birth. These traditional applications are still resonant among women today.
Nutritious nettle is safe and helpful for people of any age, including kids. For women, I recommend combining nettle and raspberry leaf and brewing this mixture as a tea to get the most from these supportive herbs. (drlowdog.com)
Nettle may help flush harmful bacteria from the urinary tract. This can benefit people who have urinary conditions, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
Nettle may also help support any medications you’re taking for infections or conditions related to the urinary tract. Talk to your doctor first about any possible interactions between herbal remedies and medications you take.
Nettle can relieve Arthritic pain
It has historically been used to treat pain and sore muscles, especially related to arthritis. The Arthritis Foundation suggests that nettle tea may also reduce the inflammation and pain association with osteoarthritis.
Blood sugar management
Nettle has shown some promising effects on blood glucose levels. It may help the pancreas make or release more insulin, the hormone that lowers blood sugar. In a 2013 Study Trusted Source, nettle leaf extract lowered blood glucose and A1C in a group of people with type 2 diabetes who were taking insulin as well as oral diabetes medications.
Precautions:
Ora Well recommends that you check with your healthcare practitioner before taking Tisanes if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medications. Keep out of reach of children.
