Description
The “New Mom Economy” is a $46 billion market, according to Forbes. Many of these products make promises about the effects they can have to improve the health and development of babies and new mothers. But the numbers are out: and the effects are not as conclusive as many may be comfortable with. The product in the spotlight are “lactation cookies,” which claim to help new moms produce more milk for breastfeeding. Ana Palacios, M.D., Ph.D. of Georgia Southern University conducted a study showing one major brand of lactation cookies do not improve milk production for new mothers at all.
