A carefully blended brew of organic herbs that have been used for millennia to naturally support lactation.
Milk's Up breastfeeding tea is a herbal blend designed to naturally support mothers while nursing.
Whilst this time with your baby is amazing - it can also be really hard, and a cup of tea can be a huge support!
All of its ingredients are 100% organic and natural - fennel, nettle, fenugreek seeds, lemon verbena and aniseed. These are herbs which have been used for millennia to support lactation, but they also taste delicious.
Fennel and fenugreek have the strongest links to increasing milk supply in research, and fenugreek is also linked to having immunity boosting benefits.
We couldn't be prouder of this multi-award winning tea! It won 'Best Maternity Product' - at the 2019 UK Baby Awards, and the 'Best Breastfeeding Support Product', at the 2020 Project Baby Awards.
The herbs in this blend have been used traditionally to support lactation and nursing mothers.
How many cups should I have a day?
We recommend having up to 3-4 cups a day. Combine this with pumping to establish your milk supply. NHS guidelines recommend a maximum 4 cups of any one herbal tea a day. *The impact of natural herbs will vary person to person.
Why are these herbs used to support my milk flow?
Fenugreek, fennel, aniseed, and even oats, are all galactagogues, which have all been used historically to support breastfeeding. No one 100% knows why, but lab studies link an active component - diosgenin, to help breastfeeding.
What is the research behind the blend?
Whilst there is extremely limited standardised and empirical evidence into the efficacy of herbs in helping lactation and milk supply, some key herbs have been used for centuries to assist women who are struggling, especially in India and the Middle East.
Fennel and Fenugreek in particular have been used by breastfeeding women for hundreds of years to increase milk supply. The seeds contain phytoestogens which mimic your female hormone, oestrogen. Nettle and anise have also been linked to helping breast milk, but the research is more limited here. Read a more in depth summary of research here.
