Mama’s Milk Tea

Fenugreek seed:
One of the best and strongest herbs for increasing milk production.

Fennel seed:
This herb is great for increasing breast milk production, and at the same time is also extremely helpful in relieving symptoms of gas or upset stomach. It is the perfect herb to take in conjunction with Fenugreek, when gas is a problem.

Red raspberry leaf:
It not only helps to increase breast milk production, but it also will help the uterus recover after birth, as it is a uterine toner. Red Raspberry Leaf is incredibly high in vitamins and minerals especially iron.

Nettle leaf:
Stinging nettle is a nutritious, dark, leafy green plant. It is high in iron and packed with vitamins and minerals. When taken after childbirth, stinging nettle is believed to treat anaemia, fight fatigue and increase the supply of breast milk.

Blessed thistle:
Blessed thistle is often combined with Fenugreek to increase a low breast milk supply. It is known as "Our Lady's Milk Thistle". It increases breast milk while helping to alleviate mild forms of postpartum depression. It is a bitter herb (known as a digestive bitter), which is healthful for the liver and digestion.

Alfalfa leaf:
A great herb for increasing breast milk production while providing the body with lots of good vitamins and minerals.

Chamomile flowers:
A calming herb that will help soothe your baby's digestion and ease colic.
