"Mum's the word" today! ? And new/ nursing mothers - we have a tea just for you in our Breast Friend Tea. ??TCM Dr @natkringoudis explains, "From a Chinese Medicine standpoint, breast milk is seen as an ‘extension’ of blood. With this in mind, if the quality and volume is depleted, the breast milk can’t flow. There are many things that will influence the cycles of breast milk, when the milk ‘comes in’ a few days post partum, how much the mother produces and how long she produces for." Nat breaks down some of the ingredients in this tea, "Ground rice is unique in its ability to really tonify the gut and very gently support healthy gut function. Chinese Angelica is a well-known TCM herb that is included for its very powerful ability to nourish blood. By nourishing blood, we can begin to directly supplement the quality and quantity of breast milk. What’s more, the mother herself will benefit as her body is replenished postpartum. This means that Chinese Angelica will also aid digestion, in supplementing the body, it helps recover from fatigue, aches, pain, bowel issues and is a general all round tonic that is very safe for both mother and child. The next herb; Fructus Liquidambaris is an important tonic that helps to replenish fluids, generate healing (great news for sore nipples and any battle scars from birth!) and help to treat other imbalances that come with motherhood like swelling and bloating. Fructus Liquidambaris is an important part of this blend for its overall ability to supplement breast milk quantity." ? Have you tried this blend?
