Chasteberry tea is traditionally used for menstrual and hormonal concerns, but evidence that the brewed tea helps is limited. Most research has studied specific chasteberry extracts, which are not interchangeable with tea.
Make chasteberry tea by steeping dried chaste tree berries in hot water. Lightly crushing the berries can help release their flavor; follow the package directions because the cut and strength of products vary.
Chasteberry products have been studied for premenstrual symptoms, but there is not strong evidence that chasteberry tea relieves PMS. Research on extracts does not establish that a homemade or packaged infusion has the same effect.
Chasteberry tea has not been proven to balance hormones. The plant may affect hormone-related pathways, but findings are limited and largely concern particular extracts rather than a cup of tea.
There is no reliable evidence that chasteberry tea improves fertility. It should not be used as a fertility treatment, and its possible effects on reproductive hormones make it unsuitable to start while trying to conceive without medical advice.
Chasteberry tea is not considered established as safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and its effects in these situations are unclear. Avoid using it unless your doctor advises you to do so.
There is no proven best time to drink chasteberry tea. It is naturally caffeine-free, so it is unlikely to disrupt sleep for that reason; follow the product directions rather than assuming that more frequent use works better.
Chasteberry tea may cause nausea, stomach upset, headache, or an itchy rash in some people. Stop drinking it if you develop a noticeable reaction; the likelihood of side effects from tea specifically is not well established.
The safety of combining chasteberry tea with hormonal birth control is unclear, and an interaction is possible. Ask your doctor or pharmacist before using it regularly if you take birth control or other hormone-related medication.
No, chasteberry tea is naturally caffeine-free because it is an herbal infusion, not a tea made from the Camellia sinensis plant. Its flavor is typically earthy, herbal, and somewhat bitter.

Chasteberry tea is an herbal infusion made by steeping the dried fruits of the chaste tree, a Mediterranean and western Asian shrub, in hot water. It has a gently bitter, earthy, herbal flavour and is usually strained before serving. Some people drink it plain; a little lemon or honey can soften its sharper notes.
It is caffeine-free and, as a brewed drink, consists mostly of water with very little energy. You can enjoy it as an alternative to black tea or coffee, though it has a distinct herbal taste. If you prefer a milder cup, steep it for less time. Anyone taking medication or considering frequent use may wish to check with a healthcare professional.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
