I have a mother of a 6 month old fully breastfed infant in my practice
who has eliminated all dairy products to combat Thrush and colic
symptoms in her son. She was surprised to find that skin problems (?
allergy) were alleviated by this change in her diet. She consulted a
Naturopath who recommended that she de-toxify her system further by
taking an Aruyvedic Botanical Liv.52.
I suggested that she might wait to de-toxify until her baby has weaned
as the mobilized toxins may find their way into her milk. She plans on
baby-led weaning and has asked me to query my colleagues on Lactnet to
find out if anyone might have any knowledge of the safety of this
product or another that she could use now, or at a later time, while
still breastfeeding. Of course, breastfeeding will not be sacrificed in
order to cleanse her liver.
Thank-you in advance for your thoughts on this matter.
