Hi Denise,

Yeast cleanse - so how much is mom supposed to take daily and for how long?
How old baby and how much breastfeeding?

>> tea tree oil 60mg
Tea tree oil is not appropriate for internal use as it has some degree of
toxicity.  How toxic seems controversial to some. However, cases exist of
pediatric poisonings with small doses ( direct accidental ingestion) which
indicate that kids may be more sensitive to tea tree oil than adults.

But wouldn't expect a whole lot of the constituents to get to bloodstream
and milk and 60 mg pretty small dose to begin with, at least per capsule
(?).  It would be helpful to look at total dose as well as the dose/impact
parameters for the child.

Similar products without the tea tree oil exist in apparent abundance,
and/or alternatives, e.g. beneficial bacteria, also exist. Has mom examined
all her options?

Sheila
