Vegetarian foods that can be selected during lactation include day lily, Zizania latifolia, lettuce, pea, lotus root, soybean, papaya, loofah, nut, corn, sweet potato, mushroom, broccoli, amaranth, kiwi fruit, bean curd soup, cucumber, carrot, spinach, cherry, black bean, distiller's grains, hawthorn and so on, and these vegetarian foods have better milk-feeding effects.

When women feel that they have no appetite during lactation, or feel that they have eaten too much meat before, and want to eat vegetarian food to make their bodies lighter, they can consider choosing the vegetarian food recommended above. After eating them, it will also promote milk production. There is no need to worry about the lack of nutrition in milk.

However, lactating women should not eat vegetarian food for a long time. In the case of eating vegetarian food for a long time, women's bodies can't absorb the nutrients such as fat and animal protein brought by vegetarian food, and their bodies will lose weight. At the same time, there will be problems such as malnutrition, decreased resistance, and easy illness. If there is very little nutrition in milk, it is no longer suitable for breastfeeding children, and children will also have malnutrition problems like their mothers.
