INSUFFICIENT BREAST MILK
Table of ContentsAre you prone to a problem with 'Insufficient Breast Milk'? Find your imbalances and create a diet for your Reproductive System by taking the free reproductive health quiz: AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON INSUFFICIENT BREAST MILKGenerally, Kapha individuals most frequently report problems with milk supply, especially overweight or diabetic mothers. This may be due to Kapha's naturally lower metabolism, which causes cold and blood stagnation in the exterior (skin).Breast milk is produced through modified sweat glands. Generally, foods that increase sweating (diaphoretics, and sour foods) increase milk production. Additional, herbs that improve circulation may help, such as blood thinners. Hormones for Breast Milk ProductionProlactin is the main hormone that increases breast milk production. Herbs that increase breastmilk (Galactagogues) often stimulate prolactin. See below for examples. These can be brewed and taken in warm teas, as warm water encourages hydration and relaxation.Food, herbs and supplements that encourage release of oxytocin help with the let-down reflex. The mother should be relaxed to encourage the let down of milk. Relaxation while breastfeeding also increases prolactin levels. High blood sugar levels depress breast milk. Kapha individuals should reduce hyperglycemia with bitter galactogogues such as fenugreek. Habits that Increase Breastmilk supplyAlways nurse the baby on both sides in each feeding. After the baby drains the bulk of breast milk, squeeze the breast to release any remaining breastmilk. This will encourage the release of prolactin to maximize production.Continue nursing until the baby unlatches as hindmilk contains higher fat concentrations. If your baby is underweight this is often the only solution needed. Always nurse the baby before giving the baby food. Nursing on demand is the best way to maintain supply. Nursing frequently releases the hormones that increase breast milk production. Do not go more than four hours at night without nursing, as prolactin levels are highest at night. Individuals with insufficient breast milk should avoid dopaminergic herbs that suppress prolactin, including mint, lemon balm, black cohosh, and chastetree berry. For Vata individuals, ojas building foods, nourishing tonics & sweet taste are important for increasing quantity of breast milk. ARE YOU NEW TO AYURVEDA?

HOW TO ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE #2INSUFFICIENT BREAST MILK IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE #2 - AFFECTING BLOOD & EMOTIONSAffecting Blood: Initially, imbalances are localized, often in the digestive tract. As an imbalance grows, it starts to affect your body systemically, via the blood. If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances are starting to spread, have entered the bloodstream, and are now systemic. Pay particular attention to the biocharacteristics, tastes, and doshas out of balance systemically, so you know how to strengthen your body as a whole, and reduce physical stress on your organs. At this stage of imbalance you will begin to experience generalized discomfort, imbalanced emotions, and may develop sensitivities to temperature. It may take several weeks of strict adherence to a specific remedial diet to clear blood level imbalances. Blood cleansing herbs may reduce symptoms. A several day cleanse may shorten the recovery time. AVOID DIETS, LIFESTYLES & HERBS THAT AGGRAVATE THESE EFFECTSAccording to Ayurveda, one or more of the following doshas and biocharacteristics may aggravate 'Insufficient Breast Milk'. If you have an excess of one of these doshas or biocharacteristics below, Ayurveda recommends reducing foods and lifestyle habits that aggravate them. Click on the biocharacteristic to learn what foods and lifestyle habits should be reduced.Symptoms Tell A Story The first step to healing is learning patterns from your symptoms. Symptoms are clues that reveal underlying imbalances. Symptoms show you where your body is weakened. Ultimately, all disease has a root in tissues too weak to defend itself. Ayurveda describes these patterns of weakness using doshas & biocharacteristics. If you notice a biocharacteristic or dosha appears next to many of your symptoms, it helps you establish a pattern that may be systemic.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKSARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharaceristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing. GET STARTEDTo get started on your Ayurvedic journey, we first recommend that your find your body type by taking our free quiz. In Ayurveda, every solution is based on your unique body type, so by taking this quiz, you’ll get the best results.5 WAYS TO HEAL YOUR BODY
