Dear All,

I don't remember seeing this question before and I apologise if it's been
discussed recently.
A client asked me about the effects of Bluegreen Algae on her breastmilk and
on her nursing baby.  She began taking two capsules with breakfast and two
with dinner when the baby was three weeks old.  She was feeling exhausted,
low energy and says she now has much more energy.  When she stopped one
weekend her energy levels fell until she resumed again.  She doesn't know the
amount in the capsules.

Her baby has quite a few green stools - could this be a side effect?  Baby is
gaining weight well and is happy.
If anyone knows more about this I'd love to hear...
Thank you,
Janaki Costello, IBCLC, LLLL, CD
