In order to protect the health of mothers and infants and reduce infant mortality, the international community has made protecting, promoting and supporting maternal and infant feeding an important part of maternal and child health work. Lactation care is to guide breastfeeding and lactation hygiene, including breast milk secretion, factors affecting milk secretion, feeding methods and breast care, breastfeeding mothers' diet, rest, sleep, weaning, etc.

Lactation is an important stage in the growth and development of mammals. For example: the lactation period of a lion is three months; the lactation period of a dog is 30 to 45 days; the lactation period of a female rabbit is generally 30 to 40 days. The composition of mammalian milk is complex. Species, diet, season, age, parity, lactation period and individual characteristics can all affect the composition of milk. The milk of various mammals contains water, protein, fat, sugar, inorganic salts and vitamins. The protein in milk is mainly casein, followed by whey protein and lactoglobulin.

1. Malted milk

Because the malt in malted milk will inhibit the mammary gland from secreting milk, reducing milk production, which is not good for the baby's health.

2. Spicy and irritating food

Breastfeeding mothers should try to eat less irritating foods, such as leeks, garlic sprouts, chili peppers, pepper, fennel, and wine. Irritating foods can not only easily damage body fluids, consume qi and blood, aggravate qi and blood deficiency, and cause constipation, but also easily enter the baby's body through breast milk and affect the baby's health. However, a small amount of condiments, such as pepper, vinegar, etc., are still acceptable.

3. Fried foods and high-fat foods

This type of food is not easy to digest. Breastfeeding mothers have weak digestive ability, and the nutrients in fried food have been lost a lot during the frying process. Eating it during breastfeeding is not good for postpartum recovery.
