Blessed Thistle

Blessed thistle is often paired with fenugreek as a galactagogue. It's generally considered low-risk when used as a tea, but evidence for effectiveness is limited.

📈Traditionally used to stimulate milk production, often combined with fenugreek.
Often sold in combination supplements with fenugreek. There is very little clinical research on its efficacy or safety during breastfeeding. High doses may cause GI irritation. Consult a lactation consultant before use, especially as a concentrated supplement.

Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
