Patient's question:
I am 26 years old, and my child is getting bigger. I feel that breastfeeding is no longer meeting his physical growth needs, so I want to wean. Is water chestnut good for weaning or increasing milk supply?Doctor's answer:
Lotus root is actually a food that promotes milk production. The rich vitamins, proteins, and various minerals in lotus root have the effects of detoxifying, preventing and treating constipation, and promoting milk production. Lotus root, pig trotters, and fig leaves are often cooked together and eaten for their good milk-producing effects.Methods for weaning mainly include: drinking water cooked with roasted malt to enhance the weaning effect. If the mother can breastfeed the baby every day, has a surplus of milk, or has breast conditions, she can drink weaning soup to reduce milk production.
