Frequently Asked Questions

+ Are your products vegan?

Always

+ Are your products cruelty free?

Always

+ Are your products fragrance free?

Yes. There are lots of opinions on the use of essential oils during and after pregnancy. Highly concentrated, strong smelling substances can be upsetting to mom or baby during the first few months after birth. Ebi believes it’s extremely important not to interfere with the natural smells that are so crucial to proper biological functioning in the first weeks after birth. A baby recognizes his mother’s scent, including the smell of her milk. Similarly, mothers use their sense of smell to detect when something might be wrong with baby (e.g. yeast infections, digestive issues, etc).

+ Is Ebi eco-friendly? Is your packaging zero waste?

Every element of our packaging and shipping is recyclable. We source our packaging from an eco-friendly supplier, the bag your Ebi kit is sent in is made of ethically sourced cotton, and Ebi only sources organic ingredients, the bulk of which come from small family operated farms in the Northeast.

+ What does organic mean to Ebi?

We only use whole organic plants that are completely raw and unrefined. They are sourced from suppliers that meet our standards for growing and processing, and practice sustainable farming methods.

+ Do you have a re-use program?

Ebi doesn’t currently have a re-use program for our bottles but encourage our customers to recycle or up-cyce their Ebi bottles for other uses.

+ Is The Tisane safe to drink during pregnancy?

Yes. The Tisane is made with nettle leaf, which is generally deemed safe during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. Please drink with caution, if at all, during the first trimester, as nettle has been shown to have stimulating effects on the uterus in some cases. If you have concerns about drinking nettle leaf tea during pregnancy, please consult your local medical or herbal practitioner.

Chamomile is generally regarded as safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you have allergies to plants in the Asteraceae family, you may want to speak with a medical professional prior to consumption.
