For our last stop on the Natural Product Quest Blog Series, we\u2019re checking out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/other-products\/cramp-tea\">natural remedy for cramps<\/a>. I\u2019m a seriously heavy cramper. On any given month, you can usually find me reaching for that bottle of extra strength pain relievers before you can say, \u201cOuch!\u201d However, the older I get, the more conscious I become of how my choices affect my body and the earth. I try to avoid taking medicine, and instead choose to supplement with essential oils or natural remedies whenever possible. Still, when Aunt Flow arrives, I often find myself wishing I could just take a pill to make the discomfort go away. Because of this, I was super curious to try the Cramp Tea from Be Prepared Period. Was it possible that a natural remedy could help to alleviate my monthly woes? I was willing to give it a shot.\n\nWhen it first arrived, I was pleasantly surprised. First off, the packaging is super adorable. The tea comes with a fun heart-shaped steeping tool and detailed instructions on how much and how often to use the tea. It just <em>looked<\/em> like it was going to make you feel better. I was ready to see what, if any, affects the tea had on my symptoms.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;]I steeped my first cup, and followed the instructions to cover the tea as it brewed to create a stronger mix. Since I didn\u2019t have anything that would cover the cup, I punched a hole in a paper plate and laid it on top of the mug.\n\nUpon my first sip, I was surprised by how tasty it was! Whether it was going to help with my cramps or not, I was so happy to find that the tea was super pleasant to drink. I could see myself switching my second cup of coffee up for this each day. But since I wasn\u2019t reviewing the tea on taste alone, I kept sipping, anxious to see if the results held true for my body.\n\nI drank my first cup on my last day before my period. When I woke up, I had that unpleasant feeling in my lady parts \u2013 not quite pain yet, but definitely enough for me to reach for the pain relievers. I sipped my first cup at 10:15 am, after eating breakfast and before my first cup of joe. (I know, I\u2019m supposed to avoid caffeine around my period \u2013 but it\u2019s just so delicious!) It was pleasant to drink, but I didn\u2019t notice a huge impact at first. At the same time,  I didn\u2019t reach for the Tylenol, either. So it\u2019s safe to say my level 4 cramps met their match![\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Cramp-Tea-steeping.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;]I started my period the next afternoon, and decided to give the tea another go. This time, I went for the stronger \u201cdose\u201d of dried tea, as the instructions suggest. I had several cups of warm tea, and did notice that the more I sipped, the more my side effects seemed to dissipate. It seemed like the act of warming the water, brewing the tea, and sipping from the mug was a much healthier ritual than walking to the medicine cabinet and opening up a pill bottle.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243; text_text_color=&#8221;#75c043&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;27px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||12px||false|false&#8221;]The Final Rundown[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;]My experience sold me on Cramp Tea, and I\u2019m happy to know that I\u2019m making a healthy switch that\u2019s good for my body. The tea helped me to tune into my body, listen to what it needed, and handle the discomfort naturally. I\u2019ve found that if I sip the tea all day, that it continually helps to reduce my cramping. Pro tip: brew a pitcher full of tea in the morning and take it with you to work or school! Since the tea is formulated exclusively with herbs meant to help balance your hormones, it is also recommended that you drink it daily 1-2 weeks before menstruating to help with your hormonal balance. I look forward to giving this aspect of the Cramp Tea a try!\n\nWhile I was still aware of my cramping, the discomfort was mostly gone, and I was able to handle it without any medication. This was a huge win for me! Overall, I was very pleased to find a natural alternative to my normal monthly routine. Be Prepared Period\u2019s Cramp Tea is a wonderful natural remedy, and one that I\u2019ll be incorporating into my life from now on.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Cramp-Tea-Button.png&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/other-products\/cramp-tea&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; use_overlay=&#8221;on&#8221; overlay_icon_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0)&#8221; hover_overlay_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.4)&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;]Here\u2019s to a better period,\n\nKD and the BPP team[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|800||||||#ffffff|&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#ec2288&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#404040&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px|&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||10px|false|false&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;9px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#404040&#8243; text_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221;] <span style=\"font-size: large;\">RELATED RESOURCES<\/span>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;QUIZ: ARE YOU A PERIOD PRO?&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/bepreparedperiod.outgrow.us\/are-you-a-period-pro&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ARE-YOU-A-PERIOD-PRO-QUIZ.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; header_text_color=&#8221;#ec2288&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#404040&#8243; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px|&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;20px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#404040&#8243;]Whether you\u2019ve just gotten your period, or you\u2019ve been menstruating for a while, there\u2019s a lot to learn about your body.

For our last stop on the Natural Product Quest Blog Series, we\u2019re checking out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/other-products\/cramp-tea\">natural remedy for cramps<\/a>. I\u2019m a seriously heavy cramper. On any given month, you can usually find me reaching for that bottle of extra strength pain relievers before you can say, \u201cOuch!\u201d However, the older I get, the more conscious I become of how my choices affect my body and the earth. I try to avoid taking medicine, and instead choose to supplement with essential oils or natural remedies whenever possible. Still, when Aunt Flow arrives, I often find myself wishing I could just take a pill to make the discomfort go away. Because of this, I was super curious to try the Cramp Tea from Be Prepared Period. Was it possible that a natural remedy could help to alleviate my monthly woes? I was willing to give it a shot.\n\nWhen it first arrived, I was pleasantly surprised. First off, the packaging is super adorable. The tea comes with a fun heart-shaped steeping tool and detailed instructions on how much and how often to use the tea. It just <em>looked<\/em> like it was going to make you feel better. I was ready to see what, if any, affects the tea had on my symptoms.\n\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner column_structure=\"1_2,1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" hover_enabled=\"0\" custom_margin=\"0px||||false|false\" custom_padding=\"0px||||false|false\" use_custom_gutter=\"on\" gutter_width=\"2\"][et_pb_column_inner type=\"1_2\" saved_specialty_column_type=\"2_3\" _builder_version=\"4.0.11\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" hover_enabled=\"0\"]I steeped my first cup, and followed the instructions to cover the tea as it brewed to create a stronger mix. Since I didn\u2019t have anything that would cover the cup, I punched a hole in a paper plate and laid it on top of the mug.\n\nUpon my first sip, I was surprised by how tasty it was! Whether it was going to help with my cramps or not, I was so happy to find that the tea was super pleasant to drink. I could see myself switching my second cup of coffee up for this each day. But since I wasn\u2019t reviewing the tea on taste alone, I kept sipping, anxious to see if the results held true for my body.\n\nI drank my first cup on my last day before my period. When I woke up, I had that unpleasant feeling in my lady parts \u2013 not quite pain yet, but definitely enough for me to reach for the pain relievers. I sipped my first cup at 10:15 am, after eating breakfast and before my first cup of joe. (I know, I\u2019m supposed to avoid caffeine around my period \u2013 but it\u2019s just so delicious!) It was pleasant to drink, but I didn\u2019t notice a huge impact at first. At the same time,  I didn\u2019t reach for the Tylenol, either. So it\u2019s safe to say my level 4 cramps met their match![\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=\"1_2\" saved_specialty_column_type=\"2_3\" _builder_version=\"4.0.11\"][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Cramp-Tea-steeping.png\" _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" hover_enabled=\"0\"][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" custom_margin=\"0px||||false|false\" custom_padding=\"0px||||false|false\"][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=\"2_3\" _builder_version=\"4.0.11\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" hover_enabled=\"0\"]I started my period the next afternoon, and decided to give the tea another go. This time, I went for the stronger \u201cdose\u201d of dried tea, as the instructions suggest. I had several cups of warm tea, and did notice that the more I sipped, the more my side effects seemed to dissipate. It seemed like the act of warming the water, brewing the tea, and sipping from the mug was a much healthier ritual than walking to the medicine cabinet and opening up a pill bottle.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" text_text_color=\"#75c043\" text_font_size=\"27px\" custom_margin=\"||12px||false|false\" hover_enabled=\"0\"]The Final Rundown[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" hover_enabled=\"0\"]My experience sold me on Cramp Tea, and I\u2019m happy to know that I\u2019m making a healthy switch that\u2019s good for my body. The tea helped me to tune into my body, listen to what it needed, and handle the discomfort naturally. I\u2019ve found that if I sip the tea all day, that it continually helps to reduce my cramping. Pro tip: brew a pitcher full of tea in the morning and take it with you to work or school! Since the tea is formulated exclusively with herbs meant to help balance your hormones, it is also recommended that you drink it daily 1-2 weeks before menstruating to help with your hormonal balance. I look forward to giving this aspect of the Cramp Tea a try!\n\nWhile I was still aware of my cramping, the discomfort was mostly gone, and I was able to handle it without any medication. This was a huge win for me! Overall, I was very pleased to find a natural alternative to my normal monthly routine. Be Prepared Period\u2019s Cramp Tea is a wonderful natural remedy, and one that I\u2019ll be incorporating into my life from now on.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Cramp-Tea-Button.png\" _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" url=\"https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/other-products\/cramp-tea\" url_new_window=\"on\" align=\"center\" hover_enabled=\"0\" use_overlay=\"on\" overlay_icon_color=\"rgba(0,0,0,0)\" hover_overlay_color=\"rgba(0,0,0,0.4)\"][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" hover_enabled=\"0\"]Here\u2019s to a better period,\n\nKD and the BPP team[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_3\" _builder_version=\"3.25\" custom_padding=\"|||\" custom_padding__hover=\"|||\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.0.11\" text_font=\"|800||||||#ffffff|\" text_text_color=\"#ffffff\" text_line_height=\"1.8em\" header_text_color=\"#ec2288\" background_color=\"#404040\" custom_margin=\"0px||0px|\" custom_margin_tablet=\"\" custom_margin_phone=\"\" custom_margin_last_edited=\"on|desktop\" custom_padding=\"|||10px|false|false\" border_width_all=\"9px\" border_color_all=\"#404040\" text_text_align=\"center\"] <span style=\"font-size: large;\">RELATED RESOURCES<\/span>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=\"QUIZ: ARE YOU A PERIOD PRO?\" url=\"https:\/\/bepreparedperiod.outgrow.us\/are-you-a-period-pro\" url_new_window=\"on\" image=\"https:\/\/www.bepreparedperiod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ARE-YOU-A-PERIOD-PRO-QUIZ.jpg\" _builder_version=\"3.15\" header_text_color=\"#ec2288\" background_color=\"#404040\" background_layout=\"dark\" custom_margin=\"0px||0px|\" custom_margin_tablet=\"\" custom_margin_phone=\"\" custom_margin_last_edited=\"on|desktop\" border_width_all=\"20px\" border_color_all=\"#404040\"]Whether you\u2019ve just gotten your period, or you\u2019ve been menstruating for a while, there\u2019s a lot to learn about your body.
