Patient's question:
I am 23 years old, and I just had a baby recently. Because I am quite thin and weak, my milk supply is not very sufficient. My mother said that I should eat more foods that can boost milk production. I don't have much experience, so I'm asking: does pepper help with milk production or milk suppression?Doctor's answer:
In any case, you are not able to eat right now. During the postpartum period, you should avoid eating pepper. You can many fish, pork, lamb, etc., and drink plenty of various nutritious soups, which is beneficial for gradual recovery. Avoid eating extremely cold and spicy foods in your diet, and consider other activities after your body has gradually recovered. After giving birth, your body is relatively weak, so don't eat indiscriminately.
