Miyeok-guk (Seaweed Soup)
Miyeok-guk is a beloved Korean seaweed soup traditionally eaten by new mothers for weeks after birth — it's so tied to motherhood that Koreans call it "birthday soup." Loaded with iodine, calcium, and iron, it's wonderfully nourishing for postpartum recovery and breastfeeding. Just be mindful of portions since seaweed is very high in iodine.
📈Traditionally valued for supporting milk production, possibly due to its high iodine and nutrient content.
Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
