Traditional Herbal Lactation Support with Fenugreek & Blessed Thistle
Herbs of Gold Breastfeeding Support is a traditional herbal formula combining Fenugreek and Blessed thistle to support breast milk production in breastfeeding women.
Both herbs have a long history of use as galactagogues, substances traditionally used to assist the initiation, maintenance or increase of breast milk production.
Each tablet contains concentrated herbal extracts equivalent to 3g of dried Fenugreek seed and 1g of dried Blessed thistle herb.
Fenugreek is also traditionally used in Western herbal medicine as a nutritive tonic.
This convenient tablet formula provides herbal lactation support for breastfeeding mothers, with a recommended dosage of one tablet once or twice daily with food.
Fenugreek – Traditional Galactagogue Herb
Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is a herb whose seeds have traditionally been used to support lactation.
Fenugreek is commonly described as a galactagogue, although clinical studies investigating its effects on breast milk production have produced mixed results.
It is also traditionally used in Western herbal medicine as a nutritive tonic.
Each tablet contains 750mg Fenugreek seed extract, equivalent to 3g of dried seed.
Blessed Thistle – Traditional Breastfeeding Support
Blessed thistle (Cnicus benedictus) has a history of traditional use in herbal lactation formulas.
It is frequently combined with Fenugreek in products intended to support breastfeeding mothers.
However, high-quality clinical evidence demonstrating that Blessed thistle increases breast milk production remains limited.
Each tablet contains 250mg Blessed thistle herb extract, equivalent to 1g of dried herb.
Concentrated Herbal Extracts
Herbs of Gold Breastfeeding Support provides concentrated extracts of both herbs in a convenient tablet format.
Each tablet delivers a combined herbal equivalent of 4g of dried plant material, comprising 3g Fenugreek seed and 1g Blessed thistle herb.
Traditional Herbal Lactation Formula
Breast milk production is primarily regulated by hormonal signalling and effective, frequent milk removal.
Herbal galactagogues may be used as complementary support, but they should not replace assessment of breastfeeding technique, feeding frequency, infant milk transfer or underlying causes of low milk supply.

Warnings & Precautions
Always read the label and follow the directions for use.
Herbal supplements should not replace a balanced diet or professional breastfeeding support.
Do not use during pregnancy unless specifically advised by your healthcare professional.
Consult your healthcare professional before use if you have diabetes, take blood glucose-lowering medicines or anticoagulants, or have a history of allergies to legumes or plants in the daisy family.

If breast milk supply is insufficient or your baby is not gaining weight appropriately, seek prompt advice from a healthcare professional or qualified lactation consultant.
What is Herbs of Gold Breastfeeding Support used for?
It contains Fenugreek and Blessed thistle, two herbs traditionally used as galactagogues to support breast milk production in breastfeeding women.
What is a galactagogue?
A galactagogue is a substance used to help initiate, maintain or increase breast milk production. Herbal galactagogues have a history of traditional use, although clinical evidence varies between herbs.
Does Fenugreek increase breast milk production?
Fenugreek is traditionally used to support lactation. Some small studies have reported benefits, but findings are inconsistent and the overall clinical evidence remains limited.
What is the role of Blessed thistle in breastfeeding support?
Blessed thistle has traditionally been used in herbal lactation formulas, often alongside Fenugreek. However, there is insufficient high-quality clinical evidence to confirm its effectiveness in increasing milk supply.
How many tablets should I take daily?
The manufacturer's recommended adult dosage is one tablet once or twice daily with food, or as directed by your health professional.
Can Breastfeeding Support replace professional lactation advice?
No. Effective milk removal, breastfeeding technique and feeding frequency are important factors in milk production. Persistent low milk supply should be assessed by a qualified healthcare professional or lactation consultant.
Is Herbs of Gold Breastfeeding Support suitable for vegans?
According to the manufacturer, the product contains no animal-derived ingredients and is suitable for vegan diets.
