I am a new IBCLC at a smaller hospital.I had heard recently 2 items that I
could not find evidence based research on.Do herbs like Fenugreek, Blessed
Thistle and Goats Rue possibly cause hypertension...like in a mom with
hypertension?Should they avoid these?Second, Has Dr hale recently stated
Fenugreek has same effectiveness as a placebo and is that with or without
Blessed thistle or other herbs?Any suggestions for newer IBCLC to keep up
with the changes, I do read this column and will do GOLD WEBINAR this
year.Thank you for any help.
