The Nursing Mother's Diet
Nourish Your Body and Your Baby
By Sylvia Brown and Mary Dowd Struck
There exist nutritional supplements that are said to increase milk production. Their effects have not been proven scientifically, but they have a placebo (psychological) effect. Be careful, some of these supplements have a very high sugar content and are therefore high in calories. Also, many midwives will tell you that fennel and beer increase milk production, and that parsley stops it.
