    Beet Root Extract

    Is beet root extract 8,000 mg breastfeeding safe?
    Tags: None
  • #2
    Current evidence does not suggest that consuming beet root as a food causes harm. Taking beet root supplements is also unlikely to cause harm; however, because supplement quality and content can vary widely — and products are not closely regulated — it is difficult to guarantee their safety. For more information about the challenges of evaluating herbal products during breastfeeding, please see our article: Nurturing Nature: Herbal Research Woes ([url]https://www.infantrisk.com/content/nurturing-nature-herbal-research-woes[/url]).

    Regarding beet root extract at a dose of 8,000 mg while breastfeeding, there is no specific data available. While harm is unlikely, caution is advised due to the variability and limited research on high-dose supplementation during lactation.
