Galactagogues, or chemicals that can enhance or improve milk production in nursing mothers, are considered lactation supplements. Galactagogues come in a variety of forms, including prescription medications and herbal or dietary supplements. Many lactation supplements contain botanicals or plants that are thought to have milk-producing characteristics.
Driving factors for the lactation support supplements market
The major factor influencing the growth of the lactation support supplements industry is insufficient breastfeeding which leads to higher infant mortality rates globally. Breastfeeding provides essential nutrients needed for the growth of an infant. Additionally, human milk insufficiency is growing globally which surges the demand for lactation support supplements and formulas to help promote human milk production. Major manufacturers in the lactation support supplements market are adopting various growth strategies and focusing on product innovation to compete with the other market leaders.
Growing cases of insufficient milk supply
The majority of neonatal readmissions in the United States are caused by breastfed babies not consuming enough milk; this problem is widespread, readily missed, and leads to needless hospitalizations for jaundice/hyperbilirubinemia, hypernatremia/dehydration, and hypoglycemia and boosting the lactation support supplements market growth. Wetnursing, shared nursing, and pre-lacteal feeding customs were formerly well-organized and growing in popularity. According to the U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2020-2025, newborns should be breastfed for the majority of the first six months of their lives before introducing suitable supplementary meals for at least a year. Both the American Academy of Paediatrics and the World Health Organisation advise exclusively breastfeeding for the first six months or so, with supplementation until the child is two years old or older.
Working of lactation supplements
Lactation supplements stimulate prolactin levels and interact with dopamine receptors to improve milk production in breastfeeding individuals. During breastfeeding, prolactin levels rise. Dopamine may prevent the release of prolactin, thereby affecting milk production. Many consumers in Australia take at least one galactagogue, including pharmacological galactagogues like domperidone as well as herbal lactation supplements like fenugreek. Dopamine action is inhibited by the anti-nausea medication domperidone. To enhance lactation, some people utilize medications off-label.
Rising adoption of organic supplements
Many of the herbal galactagogues included in breastfeeding supplements have been utilized for thousands of years all over the world to increase milk production. Fenugreek, blessed thistle, milk thistle, fennel, Brewer's yeast, moringa, goat's rue, and lecithin are the herbal galactagogues most frequently found in lactation supplements further fueling the organic lactation support supplements market. For instance, Amritbaras, which is a 100% powerful organic supplement created using natural ingredients helps optimize breast milk production and supports milk flow.
Increasing the use of fennel seeds in lactation support supplements
The volatile oil found in fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) seeds is mostly made up of anethole, a phytoestrogen, as well as fenchone, estragole, 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol), and other ingredients. Breastmilk has an anethole excretion. Fennel is a reputed galactagogue that has been utilized in traditional medicine and is a component of several proprietary blends that are intended to boost milk production. Fennel usage in nursing moms has not been associated with a rise in serum prolactin proving it to be one of the most significantly used ingredients in the lactation support supplements industry.
Growing popularity of lactation cookies
Recipes for lactation cookies dietary galactagogue are widely being shared on social media as popular lactation aids, with various degrees of effectiveness. Some mothers insist that eating lactation cookies has improved their breast milk production. Brewer's yeast, whole oats, and flaxseed meal are typical components present in the cookies. These ingredients are all nutritious meals for nursing mothers. The introduction of these products is fueling the lactation support supplements market growth.
