普通胡桃

Compatible

Safe product and/or breastfeeding is the best option.

The dried leaves of the tree are used as well as the shell of the fruit. The nut is used as food. It contains tannins, naphthoquinones, flavonoid derivatives (hyperoside, juglanin, quercetin), phenolic acids (caffeic, gallic) and ascorbic acid. It has antioxidant properties (Qureshi 2014). It is used in traditional medicine topically as a healing, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory, and orally as an antidiarrheal, hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and neuroprotective (Fitoterapia.net). Some of these properties are supported by scientific evidence (Lockyer 2022) and others are not. (Cahoon 2021)

At the time of the last update we found no published data in relation to breastfeeding.

Plant devoid of toxicity; its moderate oral use (infusions, powder) would be compatible with breastfeeding.

Topical and food uses are fully compatible.

Suggestions made at e-lactancia are done by APILAM team of health professionals, and are based on updated scientific publications. It is not intended to replace the relationship you have with your doctor but to compound it. The pharmaceutical industry contraindicates breastfeeding, mistakenly and without scientific reasons, in most of the drug data sheets.

Jose Maria Paricio, Founder & President of APILAM/e-Lactancia

Your contribution is essential for this service to continue to exist. We need the generosity of people like you who believe in the benefits of breastfeeding.

Thank you for helping to protect and promote breastfeeding.

José María Paricio, founder of e-lactancia.
