US nutrition researchers have collaborated on a new study that pours cold water on the claim that lactation cookies boost breast milk production.
A randomized controlled trial comparing breastfeeding parents who ate the 'milk-stimulating' cookies daily with those who did not found no evidence that consumption has the advertised effect.
"Despite being a physician and nutrition scientist focused on early-life nutrition, I still remember how difficult breastfeeding was for me with both of my children,""Purchasing lactation cookies to increase milk production may pose an unnecessary cost and may have additional implications for parents, such as limiting post-pregnancy weight loss and reducing consumption of healthier foods.
."A variety of commercially available products claim to improve lactation and maternal/infant health; however, little evidence supports the purported benefits."
