Can you eat brown rice during breastfeeding?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am a young woman, 27 years old. I am a nursing mother. Recently, I feel very sad about what I eat, afraid it will affect my milk. Can I eat brown rice during breastfeeding?

Doctor's answer:

Breastfeeding mothers can consume brown rice. Brown rice contains nutrients such as protein, dietary fiber, vitamins, amino acids, and inorganic salts, etc. During breastfeeding, mothers often need to change diapers, which can deplete their nutrients. Eating brown rice can help digest these nutrients, strengthen the body, and contribute to ensuring the healthy and nutritious composition of breast milk, thereby promoting the healthy growth and development of the baby after breastfeeding.
Regarding this condition, patients should, in addition to necessary treatments, also pay attention to their daily care to maintain a good lifestyle. This will help them recover more quickly.
