Ladies, please listen up.

Raspberry Leaf should be your new best friend.

Here’s why...

If you are having periods and bleeding every single month, you are potentially loosing a fair amount of iron.

Iron is a trace mineral that is needed for many jobs within our body’s to function efficiently.

Inadequate consumption or absorption of iron can lead to devastatingly low energy levels, headaches, poor sleep and general lack of energy. I know, I think I’ve been Anaemic most of my life.

Obviously, there is fine line between too little and too much. The later can also be just as much of an issue and be toxic for the body. Causing Hemochromatosis which leads to joint pain, general weakness, weight loss and stomach pain.

But I want to talk to my ladies that are still having periods, are you are the ones at most risk. Time and time again I see women in my clinic with fatigue and 95% of the time it’s iron that is the issue.

Do not fear, I have the answer. A natural remedy for it too.

I’m not talking about the old fashioned iron tablets the doctors prescribe that make your stools go black and constipate you. I’m talking about a natural leaf.

Red Raspberry Leaf.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m no purest, but I do eat as cleanly as I can these days. Mainly carb and sugar free. HOWEVER if I am going to have a treat, I’ll consciously choose, but first I check in with my body.

Am I symptom free at the moment? ✔

How is my energy? ✔

How are my bowels? ✔

Am I filling the bowl? ✔

Am I feeling good emotionally? ✔

When my answers are in alignment with my health, I’ll have a treat and these days I am lucky enough to be able to choose.

What's your biggest stressy struggle, or maybe you've overcome symptoms with natural remedies too? 

If so, I'd love to hear from you!
