What should I do if the postpartum milk is insufficient? Many new mothers are troubled by the lack of milk, so how to provide adequate breast milk for newborns is the most concerned thing for every mother, so how to invigorate qi and promote blood circulation and promote breast milk? Dear baby, I recommend a medicated diet for breast enhancement: Cao Tong Tongru Decoction.

Cao Tong Tongru Decoction

Raw materials: 5 grams of medulla tetrapanacis, 5 grams of Ligusticum chuanxiong, 5 grams of Angelica sinensis, 200 grams of crucian carp and appropriate amount of ginger (1 person).

Cooking method: put the cleaned herbs in a pot and boil them in water for more than 20 minutes, then stir-fry the crucian carp a little, put them in the pot and cook them together, and finally season them.

The efficacy of medicated diet:

Herbs used in medicated diet are sweet, light and slightly cold, and have the effects of clearing heat, promoting diuresis and promoting lactation. Ancient doctors often used them to treat postpartum breast retention. Angelica sinensis and Ligusticum chuanxiong are both blood-enriching and blood-activating products, and blood-gas is full, so that milk can flow continuously. In addition, these two drugs can complement each other without stagnation, which is beneficial to the discharge of milk. Crucian carp is a kind of food that lying-in women often eat. Sweet in nature, it has the functions of invigorating spleen and stomach, inducing diuresis to reduce swelling and promoting blood circulation. In addition, whether it is edema during pregnancy or postpartum breastfeeding, crucian carp is a good choice.

Nutrition review:

This medicated diet does not use pig's trotters as materials. On the one hand, I want to provide you with more varieties. On the other hand, considering some obese women, in order to avoid excessive intake of saturated fatty acids, some fish with less fat can be eaten appropriately.

Material selection point

There are two kinds of grass: small grass and Datong grass, commonly known as Datong grass. Because of their similar functions, they are sometimes mixed. Small and large medulla tetrapanacis have the functions of clearing away heat, diuresis and lactation, but Datong grass has the function of ventilation, and Xiaotong grass is not obvious, and the effect of lactation is not as good as Datong grass.

Datong grass is thicker than Xiaotong grass, with a hollow or translucent film in the middle and a ladder-shaped longitudinal section, which is relatively rare, while Xiaotong grass is solid and has no hollow and silvery white luster, so you can pay attention to identification when buying it.
