Hey Here are some foods that can support breast feeding and lactation 1) Whole Grains: Whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, and barley provide complex carbohydrates for sustained energy and are rich in vitamins and minerals like B vitamins and zinc. 2) oats- oats are rich in iron and is a good source of energy. It also helps in increasing the milk production. 3) leafy greens- such as spinach and methi leaves are rich in calcium, iron, and other vitamins and minerals 4) lean protein - Lean protein sources such as poultry, lean beef, tofu, and eggs provide essential amino acids for both mother and baby's growth and development. 5) calcium rich foods - Dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cheese are excellent sources of calcium, which is essential for bone health in both mother and baby. 6) Fatty fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for brain development in infants. They also provide protein and vitamin D. This vitamin D can help in calcium absorption.
