Tea & Honey FAQ for Expecting Moms
What Teas are Safe to Drink During Pregnancy?
Finding a safe tea or tisane to drink during pregnancy can sometimes feel daunting. There's a significant lack of information around what is an is not safe to consume during pregnancy outside the obvious offenders like alcohol, soft cheese, sushi, and deli meats. A quick google often leads down a rabbit hole of asterisks and warnings and equivocation that can leave moms-to-be feeling even less sure than they were before they started.
We of course recommend consulting with your doctor or a trained herbalist / nutritionist before starting to regularly drink any tea or herbal tisane, but the good news is lots of teas and tisanes are safe for most expectant mothers during pregnancy in moderation.
It is also important to note that there is a difference between a 3-5 minute steep and a long extraction meant to provide medical benefit. While many herbs may not be recommended at medicinal levels during pregnancy, the occasional cup of hibiscus tea, for example, is not likely to cause harm. We also recommend that you pay attention to blend compositions - a long extraction of pure red raspberry leaf early in the third trimester could potentially cause complications, but as part of a blend with other nutritive herbs it is safe and even beneficial during the third trimester and may be increased over time.
