I have a request from a mom who has been hospitalized throughout her later part of pregnancy and now postpartum period with a severe flare-up of ulcerative colitis. She has delivered and is successfully breastfeeding but would like to go back on some supplements that she says really helped her prior to pregnancy and wonders how they would affect breastfeeding. The (many) ingredients are as follows.

Glutamine, Glucosamine,  Lipoic Acid, L. Acidopholus, L. Bifidus, Cats Claw, Ginko, Licorice Root, Jerusalem Artichoke, Slippery Elm, Oligomeric Proantho...,Grape seeds, Betaine, L-Glutamic Acid, Papain, Pepsin, Pancreatin, Pancrelipase, Parotid.

Please reply to me at [log in to unmask] as well as the list,  I am behind in my reading of Lactnet.

Thank you,

Holly McSpadden IBCLC
