If you've ever had a clogged milk duct before, you know it hurts like hell. Once milk accumulates in the breast, it can quickly swell and, if left untreated, develop into dangerous mastitis. Organic lecithin is a natural fat emulsifier that can help reduce the "stickiness" of milk and prevent the clumping of fats (polyunsaturated fatty acids) that form stagnation. It can also loosen existing fatty blockages and improve milk flow. Lecithin is recommended for treating recurrent duct blockages. The usual recommended dosage for recurrent duct blockages is 3600-4800 mg of lecithin per day or 1 capsule (1200 mg) 3-4 times a day. After a week or two without blockage, the mother can reduce the dosage by one capsule. If there is no blockage within the next 2 weeks, she may again reduce it by one. The mom may need to continue taking 1 or 2 capsules a day if stopping lecithin leads to additional blockage of the ducts. Lecithin is a very common dietary supplement found naturally in many other foods. There are no contraindications to its use by nursing mothers. Method of application: in case of blockage of the ducts, take 1 capsule 3-4 times a day. Volume: 1 box contains 30 capsules. Tags: Thai, Balsam, Pharmacy
