Re: help!! need to a cleanse but I am still nursing!


My daughter weaned at 2.5. If you can find a lactation consultant who works with an ND, or an ND who knows how to support a nursing mom, you'll have an excellent resource for deciding whether to wean now or wait 6 months, maybe longer. What are your symptoms? IME an ND will have the knowledge to assess a suspected parasitic infection and support you appropriately.

Most of the herbals in parasite forumlas are compatible with nursing. Wormwood is the big one that's dicey. My ND advised against a cleanse including Wormwood so we waited. Once she weaned, we did the cleanse together.

I don't think you're over-nurturing by continuing to nurse. Weaning can be very traumatic if the two of you aren't ready, both emotionally and physically.

Before I started a formal cleanse, I ate foods and herbs that discouraged parasites that were safe, and additinoally, boosted my milk supply: ginger tea, fennel tea, berries, green drinks, raw pineapple and papaya, steamed leafy greens, raw pumpkin seeds, coconut oil, miso, raw garlic, a good B-complex supplement, and probiotic for both of us.

Good luck in whatever you decide
