Effects of Dietary Modified Bazhen on Reproductive Performance, Immunity, Breast Milk Microbes, and Metabolome Characterization of Sows
2021 Nov 15 Frontiers in Microbiology Jian Geng, Weicheng Jin, Jingyou Hao, Mohan Huo, Yuefeng Zhang, Chunmei Xie, et al.
Metabolic pathways, protein digestion and absorption, and biosynthesis of amino acids were enriched in the colostrum and transitional milk. Our findings provide new insights into the beneficial effects of MBP, highlighted by the changes to the microbiota and metabolomic profile of breast milk from sows fed with an MBP-supplemented diet. Thus, MBP should be considered as a potential dietary supplement for lactating sows in pork production.

Use and experiences of galactagogues while breastfeeding among Australian women
2021 Jul 01 PLOS One McBride GM, Stevenson R, Zizzo G, Rumbold AR, Amir LH, Keir AK, et al.
The incidence of side effects appeared higher for women taking pharmaceutical agents compared to herbal galactagogues. However, a number of side effects were still reported by women using herbal or food-based galactagogues, suggesting they are not completely benign.

Alginates: From the ocean to gastroesophageal reflux disease treatment
2019 Sep 16 The Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology , Bor S, Kalkan IH, , Celebi A, , Dincer D, , Akyuz F, , Dettmar P, , Ozen H,
Alginate has a unique mode of action in producing raft formation, making it a fast and effective option for mild GERD symptoms. It can also be used in combination with PPIs for more severe cases, especially in regurgitation-dominant GERD and atypical symptoms. Additionally, alginates are proven to be safe and efficient in treating GERD in children, pregnancy, and lactation.

2019 Aug Medicine Lu P, Ye ZQ, Qiu J, Wang XY, Zheng JJ
During the early postpartum days, Tuina therapy increases the milk production and promotes other physiological changes supporting lactation for postpartum women with C-section delivery and insufficient breast milk production. The novel intervention is warranted for further investigation and validation.

The Role of Vitamin D in Fertility and during Pregnancy and Lactation: A Review of Clinical Data
2018 Oct 12 International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Pilz S, Zittermann A, Obeid R, Hahn A, Pludowski P, Trummer C, et al.
Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) document that physiological vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy is safe and improves vitamin D and calcium status, thereby protecting skeletal health. Although certain RCTs and/or meta-analyses reported some other beneficial effects, it is still not clear whether vitamin D supplementation improves fertility or decreases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes such as low birth weight, pre-eclampsia and neonatal mortality, or reduces wheeze/asthma in the infants.
