Guar Gum

Guar gum is a natural thickener and stabilizer derived from guar beans. It's found in ice cream, yogurt, sauces, and gluten-free products. It's safe during breastfeeding — it's a soluble fiber that passes through the digestive system and doesn't absorb into your bloodstream or breast milk.

Sources: FDA, EFSA

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