Alfalfa has been used as food and medicine for centuries. Historically, its medical uses included the treatment digestive disorders, arthritis, and kidney problems. It is one of the main sources of food for livestock including horses, goats, and dairy cows. However, according to the drugs and lactation database, there are no scientifically valid clinical trials to support its use during breastfeeding. There is limited data regarding how much and which components of alfalfa transfer into the breast milk. Moderate alcohol consumption by a breastfeeding mother (up to 1 standard drink per day) is not known to be harmful to the infant, especially if the mother waits at least 2 hours before nursing. So how much mother tincture you are advised to take for breast milk?
