Lactation Keto Mocha Frappe

LACTATION KETO MOCHA FRAPPE

Move over Starbucks, once you have this Lactation Keto Mocha Frappe (frappuccino) to boost milk supply you will quickly want to ditch the sugary drinks.

Plus, this one is loaded with greens and lactation-boosting ingredients! Don’t worry you won’t taste them one bit.

What keto foods are in the this smoothie that will help increase supply?

There are many keto foods that are a galactagogue, aka something that can help boost milk supply. Here are a few I included in this recipe:

Flaxseed – flaxseed contains alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and phytoestrogens that can help with milk supply. (2) Flaxseed is also nutrient-dense and full of omega 3 which also is so great while breastfeeding.
Brewer’s Yeast – Brewer’s yeast is a superfood. It is packed with protein and is full of nutrients like iron, zinc, vitamin B, magnesium, and potassium. I recommend starting small with this one because it has a strong taste!
MCT Oil – Many mamas wonder if MCT is safe while breastfeeding. Yes, it is! It’s a great way to boost your healthy fats and milk supply for the day. (3) Make sure to start slowly with MCT oil though, too much could cause digestive issues.
Spinach – We all need more greens in our day. Spinach is such a nutrient-dense powerhouse and so great for supply. Spinach is also full of phytoestrogens that may have a positive effect on breast milk production

** Additional add-ins I love to add to this frappe are Lily’s chocolate chips and sliced almonds. Just make sure to calculate them.

*** If you are wanting to add more protein to this frappe add some chocolate protein powder instead of the MCT oil, then just add an additional 1 T of MCT oil. Or add a scoop of Collagen to the frappe.

Do lactation Recipes really work?

Yes, keto lactation recipes and other lactation recipes do really help with supply if the recipes contain galactagogues aka milk boosting ingredients. Every mama is different on what ingredients actually do increase milk supply for them. I always suggest trying them out and see how supply is affected.

How Long will it take to for the latation recipes to work?

This varies greatly from mama to mama. Some mamas see an instant increase in supply but others need to wait a couple of days. But, what better way to test it out to see if it work for you than when these yummy cookies above.
