Thank you, Jennifer. The baby is not breastfeeding and the mother isn't expressing or pumping - but she is planning to work towards relactating. So the amount of milk would be small initially.

I don't think the Immunocare is from Metagenics. It is basically plant sterols--anti-oxidants. If this is an older baby, I personally would not be concerned. Too bad the ND does not have info I would expect him to have.

SB Dysbiosis, Ultra Flora Restore, G Tox Express, Immunocare and Super Mushroom Compex (Metagenics brand). Apparently the first two are probiotics, which a naturopath has recommended because of recent lengthy antibiotic therapy. The naturopath didn't have information as to whether the G Tox and Immunocare are safe while breastfeeding and I couldnt find either in Hale. They appear to be product names within the particular brand. If you have relevant training and/or experience as regards these products, I'd be glad of your comments. The quantity of milk will be marginal at this stage.
