Can I take Reishi Mushrooms while breastfeeding?

Asked 3 years ago

How could taking Reishi Mushrooms affect my breastmilk and the development of my child? I've started getting postpartum depression and heard that Reishi Mushrooms might help, but I don't want to put my child at risk.

No, you should not take Reishi Mushrooms while breastfeeding. There is no enough data on the safety of Reishi Mushrooms in pregnant or lactating women, so it is better to play safe. Anything you take in your body at this moment may be detrimental to the health of the infant. If you feel any discomfort, see a doctor for an alternative instead. Reishi mushrooms should be totally avoided ad this stage.
