Does eating braised meat during lactation cause milk to decrease?

Patient's question:

I am a 23-year-old woman, and I have been breastfeeding my child since birth. Therefore, I would like to know if eating braised meat products during lactation can cause a decrease in milk supply.

Doctor's answer:

It seems I haven't heard of any connection between eating marinated dishes and milk suppression, but I do think it's best to avoid them during breastfeeding. After all, marinated dishes aren't very fresh, and they contain a lot of seasonings, which could be harmful to your baby if they consume your milk after you eat them. I suggest maintaining a regular routine, eating light and soft foods, and drinking plenty of warm water. I hope this explanation is helpful to you, and wish you a speedy recovery!
