Is it safe to take green tea extract while nursing? if so, how much per day is safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessary: It is not known if taking tea extracts is safe while nursing. In reality, nobody knows for sure, because there are many different brands of this, with varying purities, different doses, plus varying concentrations. That means a woman is safest if she doesn't take supplements that she does not truly need (some supplements are needed, most are NOT needed). Green tea extract is likely unnecessary.
