Can bodybuilding affect a person's breastmilk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No and Yes: Weightlifting will not affect breast milk, but if bodybuilding includes the use of supplements - yes. I would not use supplements while breastfeeding. These products are not fda tested, and their claims have not been proven by scientific methods, nor can one trust that they have no side effects. The aap discourages the use of supplements in pediatric athletes, side effects can be serious.
