ParticipantRe: Budget101.com : raspberry leaves
Making teas.. just a note, you don’t have to dry out raspberry leaves to
make tea. Actually, with most herbs you can make teas, tisanes with fresh
herb. Just crush or bruise the leaves before adding your hot water, allow it
to steep.Now, if you’re really out to get the best Medicinal benefit, consider using
an Infusion.Infusions- which are made by allowing the herb to steep for long periods of
time (4-10 hours) are best made with Dried herbs. (Why? Because the minerals
and other phytochemicals are more accessible after drying.)Here’s an example that I’ve written down in my herbal book… 1 cup of
nettle TEA contains 5-10 mg of calcium. 1 c. of Nettle Infusions contains up
to 500 mg of calcium.If you have troubles finding herbs, try these legit companies:
