Citric Acid (Food Additive)

Citric acid is perfectly safe while breastfeeding. While it sounds 'chemical,' it's the same acid naturally found in lemons and oranges. As a food additive, it's used as a preservative and flavor enhancer in countless products. It's one of the most thoroughly studied food additives with an excellent safety record.

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