Real Science
Science Proves It. But Our Foremothers Already Knew It.
Historically, fenugreek and other herbal remedies (such as blessed thistle and anise) have been used around the world by millions of women to improve breast milk production.* It is believed that fenugreek and blessed thistle work better when taken together.
Fenugreek, or Trigonella foenum-graecum (try saying that three times fast), is a plant from India and the Mediterranean region. The seeds are the part of the plant most useful for increasing milk production.* Fenugreek has been given the FDA’s GRAS designation (Generally Regarded As Safe). Studies show that it has no adverse effects and helps to boost a mother’s milk production and infant weight gain.*
A recent clinical trial showed just how helpful fenugreek can be. 78 breastfeeding mothers and their babies, newborn to 4 months old, were divided into two groups. One group received fenugreek several times daily; the other group received a placebo. Before the trial began, there were no significant differences in the babies’ weight, head circumference, and the number of wet and dirty diapers. After a one-month trial, however, the group receiving fenugreek demonstrated greater breast milk sufficiency. The babies whose mothers used fenugreek weighed more, had greater head circumferences, and more wet and dirty diapers (indicating more breast milk consumption).
Milkflow’s proprietary fenugreek formula is unique. Fenugreek, blessed thistle, and anise are all known galactagogues. The 10:1 concentration of fenugreek extract means you get enough fenugreek to boost milk supply with only one to three delicious drinks per day.
What's Inside
The all natural ingredients in Milkflow grow in the ground; they aren’t created in a lab. Fenugreek, blessed thistle, and anise are herbs that have been used for centuries. We use only natural chai tea latte flavor and natural (not artificial) sweeteners.
What's not Inside
You won’t find any artificial ingredients in Milkflow Fenugreek + Blessed Thistle Drink Mix. You won’t find any GMOs, either (which kind of falls under the category of artificial, but we thought you’d want to know). No high fructose corn syrup … and no regular corn syrup, either. Plus, Milkflow contains no wheat, corn, eggs or gluten.
Faq's
What is fenugreek?
Fenugreek, or trigonella foenum-graecum, is a plant from India and the Mediterranean. It has been used by generations of women to promote breast milk production.
I’ve heard fenugreek gives off a maple syrup odor, is that true?
The fenugreek herb has a natural maple scent. When taking a fenugreek supplement, a maple syrup odor may occur in perspiration or urine. But don’t worry – the scent does not need to be present for Milkflow to be working!
What is blessed thistle?
Blessed thistle is a plant found in the Mediterranean region of the world and is related to asters and daisies. In many places, it’s considered a noxious weed. (Fortunately, we know better!)
Is there a difference between blessed thistle and milk thistle?
Yes! While both plants are in the aster family, they are distinct from each other. Blessed thistle has yellow flowers surrounded by spiny leaves. It grows primarily in the Mediterranean region from Southern Europe to North Africa and in Western Asia. Flowers, leaves, stems and roots have been used in folk medicine, homeopathy, and, more recently, in pharmaceuticals.
The blooms of the milk thistle plant are purple. While milk thistle originated in Europe, it is now found throughout North America. The leaves and stems contain milky white sap. The seeds contain active beneficial compounds and are used to create extracts and powders.
Blessed thistle is a known galactagogue, recognized for its ability to help increase breast milk production. Milk thistle is known for its liver-protective qualities and is used to treat liver and gallbladder problems.
What is the difference between UpSpring Milkflow Fenugreek Blessed Thistle Drink Mix and UpSpring Milkflow Fenugreek Capsules?
The drink mix, which comes in five flavors (Berry, Sugar Free Berry, Citrus, Chocolate, and Chai), is a convenient way to get your fenugreek while staying hydrated. For days when you are on the go and don’t have access to a glass of water (or milk, for the chocolate and chai flavors), Milkflow concentrated capsules are an easy way to get your fenugreek.
When should I start taking a Milkflow product?
Take it any time you want to boost breast milk production after your baby is born. (Do not take this product during pregnancy.)
How long does it take for Milkflow Fenugreek + Blessed Thistle to work?
Metabolisms vary but you may see a difference within the first week.
Does Milkflow Chai Tea Latte contain milk?
Yes.
Does Milkflow Chai Tea Latte contain caffeine?
Milkflow Chai Tea Latte contains a trace amount of Black Tea. Caffeine occurs naturally in tea plants such as Black Tea but we do not add additional caffeine.
