Raspberry Reverie: The Gentle Power of a Soft Superfruit
A Berry with a Story of Strength & Softness
Raspberries may look delicate, but don’t let their soft texture fool you—they’re among nature’s most powerful little fruits. Bursting with antioxidants, vitamins, and subtle sweetness, raspberries offer a quiet kind of nourishment. That’s why we’ve included them in LUMI, our skin-loving tea blend crafted to help you glow from the inside out.
From their support of radiant skin to their rich polyphenol content, raspberries are a beautiful way to weave daily wellness into your ritual.
The Benefits of Raspberry: A Closer Look
1. Rich in Antioxidants That Protect & Restore
Raspberries are packed with flavonoids, especially quercetin and ellagic acid, which help combat oxidative stress. These antioxidants protect your cells, reduce inflammation, and support long-term wellness.
2. Supports Radiant, Clear Skin
Raspberries contain Vitamin C, an essential nutrient for collagen production and skin repair. They also help detoxify and soothe the body from within, which may support clearer, more luminous skin.
3. Naturally Anti-Inflammatory
Chronic inflammation is often at the root of many modern health issues, including fatigue and skin dullness. The anti-inflammatory properties of raspberries work gently to help the body find balance—without harsh effects or overstimulation.
4. Balances Blood Sugar Naturally
Raspberries are low on the glycemic index and contain fiber, which may help regulate blood sugar levels. This makes them an ideal ingredient in herbal teas for those seeking calm, sustained energy.
5. Softly Supports the Heart
The anthocyanins in raspberries (those pigments that give them their beautiful red color) are also known for supporting cardiovascular health. They encourage good circulation and may reduce the risk of oxidative damage to blood vessels.
