Mother Food: A Breastfeeding Diet Guide with Lactogenic Foods and Herbs for a Mom and Baby's Best Health Book

This alternative medicine and traditional foods, how-to-cookbook and herbal is recommended by lactation consultants and approved by the La Leche League International Book Evaluation Committee.

Written in an easy-to-read style, the guidelines and supplements discussed in "Mother Food" are similar to those used by MDs in the treatment of autism and ADHD. Boosting mother and baby's immune systems and facilitating gentle detoxification positions the mother and baby for a lifetime of ultra health.

Drawing on traditional nutrition, and describing simple, whole-foods cooking techniques, "Mother Food" has become a reference for nutritionists, lactation consultants, and all those who assist mothers in the postpartum period with protocols for low milk supply, infant colic, anemia, thyroid issues, postpartum depression, yeast issues, foggy mindedness, food sensitivities, weight gain and weight loss, and much more.

A book like this is hard to find. A rarity. Information is clearly described in a warm, supportive tone, making it accessible and non-threatening - so important for first-time mothers.

* Discover recipes to increase and maintain an abundant milk supply, to promote the let-down reflex, and increase the healthy fat content of breastmilk, along with other immune factors.
* Learn guidelines for the detective work involved in eliminating so-called "trigger foods" that may be the cause of a baby's colic, insomnia, eczema, or other distress
* Practice basic detox and chelation - gentle enough for the breastfeeding period
* Balance your blood-sugar, develop vitality, overcome fatigue
* Say good-bye to food cravings, lose weight, and maintain a healthy weight level without the yo-yo effect
* Increase your clear-mindedness and increase the IQ-enhancing components of your breastmilk

In addition, "Mother Food" describes insights from breastfeeding traditions of eastern cultures and ancient medicine, and provides an herbal with dosages and preparations for galactagogues.
