I used to get horrible cramps, to the point I couldn't even get out of bed. This tea helped me get through that. I was even taking it before it became a licensed health product and it helped me then. This tea helped me so much, so I could actually get up out of bed on those bad cramp days. I have since gotten an IUD, which has helped a lot but I still get some cramps so I make this tea and it always helps.
