Almonds

Almonds are totally safe while breastfeeding and are a wonderful snack! They're packed with calcium, vitamin E, and healthy fats — all great for nursing moms.

Tree nut allergies are a concern for some families, but the current guidance is that you don't need to avoid them unless your baby has been diagnosed with a tree nut allergy. Almonds are actually among the most nutritious snacks you can choose while nursing, providing calcium, magnesium, and protein.
