Make a fine tonic for women

The strawberry leaves, which taste cool and strawberry-like in an herbal tea, make a fine tonic for women, and it promotes the functioning of the body's systems, maintains health etc.

--- Does it mean that from the leaves one can make a fine tonic for women and that this tonic (or maybe the leaves themselves) promotes the functioning of the body's systems etc. ?

Hi The leaves, as I understand it, must be made into a tea. I don't think you could take them otherwise Once infused, they are a healthy drink - a tonic That's probably good for everyone, but it seems to be especially good for women, especially if they are pregnant or are breast-feeding their baby Dave

OK. Got it. I asked because I didn't see anything in the original post about pregnancy, etc.
