More Milk Plus Alcohol Free (8 oz.) is the top selling liquid extract that is very effective for increasing breast milk production, while being completely safe for the breastfeeding mom and her nursing baby. Motherlove's alcohol based extracts and the alcohol-free extracts such as this are extracted in alcohol and water. This blend is the perfect medium because of its ability to extract the greatest range of goodness from the herbs. The amount of alcohol in the finished extract is very small, but some find that it does have a sharp taste.
In alcohol-free More Milk Plus, the alcohol is slowly steamed away, yet none of the important constituents are removed. A sweet syrup called glycerin replaces the alcohol content and makes it more palatable. This sized bottle is perfect for the women that need to use lactation products the entire time they are nursing to maintain their milk supply.
The principle herb in this extract is fenugreek, long known for its milk-producing properties. Some women experience reductions in milk when separated from baby, during illness, when their baby grows rapidly, or from stress. Many working moms take this when they are away from baby for hours at a time.
Most nursing mothers take 1/4 tsp (1 ml) 4 times per day, and it is recommended right after a nursing session is over. More Milk Plus may be taken with 1 - 2 oz. of liquid. However, try not to drink additional liquids 20 minutes before and after each dose. Depending on body weight and dosage, this extract should last approximately 40 days - 8 weeks. More Milk Plus does not contain any milk, dairy, soy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat or gluten. It is KOF-K Certified Kosher. Do not use while pregnant.
