Herbal Protocol and Breastfeeding

I was diagnosed with H Pylori during my pregnancy. I tried an antibiotic treatment regimen while pregnant, which did not work. I am currently still breastfeeding my 3 year old and would love to try the Herbal protocol with all the supplements. Are any of the products in this regimen contraindicated for breastfeeding?


Thank you,
Karen

You've waited this long

Hi Karen,

I can't advise on whether anything is safe to take while breastfeeding except a VERY VERY few supplements that I know to be safe- Vitamin D, Magnesium, probiotics and Omega 3 fatty acids. Otherwise, there have been few to no studies done on whether individual supplements are transmitted into breast milk at all, let alone determining whether they are safe or not. Heck, they really can't even tell you if the antibiotics are safe or not, and I personally wouldn't take antibiotics while pregnant or breastfeeding unless it was a dire emergency and/or there was simply no other choice in the matter.

So, you've waited 3 years already, so it would be prudent to wait until you decide to stop breastfeeding to use any of the supplement protocols.
