Effectiveness of Lactation Cookies on Human Milk Production Rates: A Randomized Controlled Trial

CONCLUSIONS: AND RELEVANCE: This study found no evidence for an effect of consuming LC on HMPR, PIM, or breastfeeding self-efficacy in exclusively breastfeeding parents with overall adequate perceived milk supply. Recommendations to consume LC for increasing objective or subjective milk supply may deliver false hope and unnecessary financial costs at a vulnerable time.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Clinical Trials NCT04805008.PMID:36921902 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.03.010
