GALACTOGOGUES WE USE
We use 5 main galactogogues (milk making ingredients) in our cookies.
BREWERS YEAST
Contains iron, B vitamins, protein, selenium, chromium and various other minerals. Well known for its use in the production of beer. Along with promoting milk supply, brewers yeast may also help battle fatigue and postpartum depression.
WHEAT GERM
Wheat Germ is an essential ingredient. This wonder food contains zinc which is extremely beneficial when it come to breastfeeding. Zinc is a great mineral which helps protect cracked nipples; extremely common while breastfeeding. It aids the immune system and is also believed to help with postpartum depression.
COCONUT OIL
Packed with large amounts of Lauric Acid, coconut oil provides a powerful anti-microbial fatty acid that protects the immune system of a baby. It provides energy through medium-chain fatty acids which helps the baby grow and develop properly. 1 tablespoon of Coconut Oil into your diet is enough to boost a mother’s breast milk supply for the next three days with the maximum increase occurring during the first 10 hours.
FLAXSEED
Flaxseeds have enzymes and essential fatty acids, which are very important to help increase the fat content of your breast milk.
OATS
Another wonder food while breastfeeding. Oats are extremely high in iron, protein and complex carbohydrates. Did you know that low levels of iron in the body can reduce milk supply?
