Oat Milk

Oat milk is safe while breastfeeding. It's a great dairy alternative and some people believe oats support milk supply, though the evidence is mostly anecdotal.

📈Oats are traditionally used as a galactagogue (milk supply booster). The scientific evidence is limited, but many nursing moms report positive effects. Oat milk likely has less of the active compound than whole oats, but it doesn't hurt.
