Miso Paste
Miso paste is safe while breastfeeding and adds a delicious umami flavor to soups, dressings, and marinades. It's fermented soy with probiotic benefits.
Miso is made from fermented soybeans (sometimes with rice or barley) and salt. It's rich in probiotics, B vitamins, and minerals including zinc and manganese. The high sodium content is worth noting — a tablespoon of miso contains 600-1000mg of sodium — so use it as a flavor enhancer rather than a main ingredient. Safe and nutritious in typical culinary amounts.
Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
