Let's break it down! 

Nettles: 

• Full of iron, potassium, calcium, magnesium and copper. These helps balance electrolytes, support fetal growth, ease leg cramps, assist with better sleep, keep anemia at bay, prevent postpartum hemorrhage, and aid in the absorption assimilation of other micronutrients.

• It also boasts a heft amount of vitamin A, C, K + B which nourish the blood and growing baby, improve blood vessel strength and elasticity, support energy metabolism and immune health.

• Lastly, Chlorophyll and beta carotene that are essential for blood volume expansion, getting optimal oxygenated blood to your developing baby, balance blood sugar and support normal lactation.

Oatstraw: 

• It is loaded with important minerals and vitamins like iron, magnesium + calcium that double up some of the same benefits of nettles while especially nourishing the nervous system

• Impressive levels of vitamin D + E nourish the thyroid, pancreas and liver, aid in hormone balance and prevent circulation discomforts like hemorrhoids and varicose veins (pile on that oatsraw, lady! I can feeeeel the relief of this one!)

Red Raspberry Leaf: 

• Rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, raspberry strengthens the uterus to make contractions more effective and prevent hemorrhage, and is both anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial. A toned uterus is more able to create a coordinated labor pattern and circulate blood flow.

Alfalfa: 

Our organic NORA tea blend is sent to you with enough loose leaf herbs to make about 20 quarts of infused deliciousness, if following our directions.

This comes out roughly to about 80 cups! 

Be prepared for our version of pressing "The Easy Button!" 

These loose leaf herbs will come pre-blended and with instructions on how to brew to perfection. In order to make a therapeutic dose each time, you'll basically "set it and forget it" -- one of my favorite things about making herbal infusions! 

You may also find, like we have over time, that infusing loose leaf herbs is made infinitely easier with an infuser carafe like this one, too. A second "Easy Button" - it keeps getting better!

Of course you CAN, but we're all friends here, right? Friends don't let friends go crazy OR broke trying to get four and a half boxes of tea brewed everyday!! Therapeutic dosing with herbs is best done with loose leaf herbs-- for simplicity and price point and cleanest options! 

You can drink NORA in any season of your lady life! 

For fertility: You can enjoy all the nutritive and nourishing benefits of this herbal tea for many months leading up to trying to conceive. What a gift it would be to the health of your baby and overall pregnancy to go into early motherhood with mineral and vitamin stores at an all time high! Once you get a positive pregnancy test, wait to continue enjoying your NORA Tea until after you are 16 weeks

In pregnancy: Like we mentioned, after 16 weeks of pregnancy you can drink a quart of NORA pregnancy tea 5 or more times a week. It is quite a sweet little rhythm and ritual to get into, and you may enjoy it every single day of your second and third trimester. The recommendation to wait until Week 16 has to do with the impact Red Raspberry Leaf can have on uterine toning at the beginning of pregnancy.

In postpartum: It's touted as a pregnancy tea for sure, but this heavy hitter can benefit women in all stages of motherhood- especially the notoriously depleted stage of postpartum and birth recovery. If you are struggling with fatigue, nutrient density, blood loss, mood swings, blood pressure or blood sugar imbalances- this tea can only help! Enjoy all 4 of the ingredients and as often as you can brew it. Aim for at least 1 cup per day, but an entire quart each day would do wonders for your recovery and milk supply.

In any other season: Like you have seen above, it's delicious and has an insane mineral and nutrient profile...so feel confident as you drink up any time!
