After childbirth, when a woman chooses to breastfeed, the question arises: which foods should she select to support milk production and provide both herself and the infant with essential nutrients? The diet of a breastfeeding mother should be carefully planned to deliver all necessary vitamins, minerals, and energy while ensuring optimal milk quality. Which foods are recommended, and which should be avoided?

The basics of a breastfeeding mother's diet

Therefore, it is worth remembering that the diet of the breastfeeding mother should be a little bit more calorific, especially since the daily portion of food for the baby is about 300-700 kcal, released by the mother's body. It is therefore recommended to increase the caloric intake by about 500 kcal per day.
