It makes childbirth safe and wonderfully easy. It is highly beneficial for all uterine complaints and is most effective as a female regulator. In labor it is reputed by some herbalists to be better than red raspberry leaves ( these two herbs make a good combination). " Squaw Vine has very valuable diuretic, tonic and alterative properties, resembling those in prince's pine or pipsissewa (Chimaphila umbellata) and black haw (Viburnum prunifolium), for which it is often substituted, or used in combination.

Here is the complete quote from the file. This formula was promoting the use of Squaw Vine which along with the cohoshes we got knowledge of from the Native Americans."This great herb is another legacy from our American Indians, who held it in high esteem as a uterine tonic during pregnancy, and as an aid during parturition.It makes childbirth safe and wonderfully easy.
