- Can assist in recovery from birth, help prevent postpartum hair loss, maintain healthy breast milk supply, reduce sleep deprivation, assist in hormone health, and help other various health concerns. As always, please remember, this is not medical advice nor should it be taken as such. It is simply a comprehensive breakdown of important nutrients recommended through the ACOG, APA, AAP, and OBGYNs. Also, please consult with your doctor before beginning supplementation of any kind if nursing!
- Vitamin A- unfortunately many mothers are deficient in many vitamins, with vitamin A being one of them. There’s a fairly new study that proves a mother supplementing with Vitamin A or consuming a high amount, has a higher retinol concentration in breastmilk.
- Vitamin C- a normal component of breastmilk and a key milk antioxidant. The RDA for a nursing mother is 120mg per day of Vitamin C (more if you are battling an illness). An additional benefit of getting enough Vitamin C if you are breastfeeding, based on a study, proved that women getting an adequate amount of Vitamin C passed it to the infants and those infants had increased biochemical markers of milk antioxidant activity.
- Vitamin D- As Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin, it is stored in your body fat, which allows you to consume more of the RDA to ensure you are getting enough during the day. It is especially important in women who live in cold climates that don’t get out in the sun for the better half of the year.
- Vitamin E- an important antioxidant that, in lactating women, increases the daily requirement to 19mg to compensate for what is secreted into the breastmilk. Babies are born with low stores of Vitamin E so it’s vital they receive their daily dosage from breastmilk or fortified formula. Has also been proven to reduce postpartum hair loss when pumpkin seeds are consumed.
