IMPORTANT NOTE BY LACTATION CONSULTANT:
Perception
of Insufficient Milk Supply is reported by 50% of breastfeeding mothers. It
is the most common cause of weaning. These problems are falsely perceived
because it is found that only 5% of women will not produce adequate amounts
of milk for their baby due to very rare conditions. Please make sure that you
have been assessed by a Lactation Consultant or health professional with
training in lactation management and have been diagnosed as having low milk
supply before you take any form of galactagogue (milk booster). REMEMBER: Don’t fix something that is
not broken else you’ll end up with another problem. More importantly, Milk
production is DEMAND driven NOT product driven!!

NOTE:
This
product contains Shatavari, which is commonly used
in Ayurvedic tradition of healing. Also known as
“hundred husbands” for its beneficial effects in women and reproductive
function, shatavari is also very popular as a galactogogue in India and China. Shatavari
is considered to rejuvenate female function and is used for infertility. One
older study found that shatavari “increased the
weight of mammary tissue and milk yield in estrogen-primed rats” while
inhibiting involution of glandular tissue and maintaining milk secretion,(1)
while another found shatavari to increase milk
production in buffaloes.(2)
In contrast, a more recent human study reached the conclusion that it had no
real effect (baseline prolactin levels in both
groups declined at the same postpartum rate) even though the mothers using shatavari had a greater decrease in necessary
supplemental milk for their babies at the end of the study than did mothers
who took a placebo.
(3)
Another study using an alcoholic extract of shatavari
found that it caused an increase in serum prolactin
levels.
Multiple anecdotal reports
have attributed milk production increase to shatavari.
(4)
The mechanism for increasing milk production seems to parallel that of metoclopramide. Shatavari has
also been used for gastric problems and has even been tested against metoclopramide, where it was found to have a comparable
ability to accelerate gastric emptying.
