Lactation support for low milk supply 

A blended herbal tincture to naturally promote the production and flow of breast milk- featuring Torbangun

WHY IT'S AWESOME Everything you need to know about this product.

A unique herbal blend of traditional herbs used to promote the production of breast milk.

The Milky Way’s blend of herbs is unlike any other lactation formula available. We use a therapeutic dose of Torbangun, Moringa and Blessed Thistle to create a powerhouse tincture. Torgangun has been used for hundreds of years to support lactation in the Bataknese culture in Indonesia. More recently, modern research has helped to provide further evidence that this traditional herb can increase breast milk supply in lactating women. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16672214

The Milky Way can be used alone or in combination with any of our other tinctures. (We use tinctures because they’re the most effective way to deliver herbs and will ensure maximum absorption.)

We don’t add any fillers, flavours or sweeteners. The natural taste takes some getting used to but take heart in knowing you’re getting the absolute best.

A proprietary blend of potent traditional herbs to safely boost breast milk production.

  • Nutrient dense, traditional tincture to increase production of breast milk.
  • Completely safe for nursing moms.
  • Made with therapeutic doses of Torbangun, Moringa and Blessed Thistle

Milky Way & Goat’s Rue

I have been using Goats Rue since May of ‘24 and it seemed to make a difference but when I added in The Milk Way starting in June ‘24, I noticed an even bigger change in my supply. I combo feed my little by offering breast first at each feed and then topping up with 60-90 mls of formula. I have been thinking of swapping out The Milky Way with Milk Aplenty just to see how that one works as well. So in love with the products and would highly recommend to any Momma in need of a little boost! It feels so great to be able to offer my baby even just a little bit of breastmilk. My little bundle has been gaining just above the recommended range :).

Tastes horrible but works! - The Milky Way

Every month before I get my period I struggle with a really low supply. I’ve always had an oversupply, so the decline around my period is very noticeable and quite stressful as I question if I even have enough to feed my baby. Around 6 months PP my supply just didn’t boost back up like it normally does after my cycle. I went to see an IBCLC about my supply being so low and she recommended this supplement. I was sceptical at first and didn’t think it would work, but after just 4 days of taking it twice a day I noticed a huge boost in my supply and it seems back to normal.

I’ve now come to the week before my period where my supply typically tanks, but since I’ve been taking the Milky Way daily, my supply seems completely unaffected.

It tastes like taking a shot of the worst and cheapest imaginable alcohol you can buy, but I’m totally fine with that as long as it continues to help my milk supply!

Retained placenta

I had my 8th baby 3 weeks ago. I have never struggled with milk supply till now.
I had some retained placenta which can inhibit milk production. I ordered all 3 supplements provided on this website. I'm taking all 3 three times a day. I'm hoping that's ok to do. I think that possibly it has helped increase my supply. It's hard to say. I'd have to go off of it to see if I saw a drop in production. But I'm thinking that it has helped. It's just still way less than I'm use to. And that's all I have to compare to.
I've been using the supplements now for a week and a half.
So far my baby is still gaining. So I'm thankful for that.

Supply Up!

I have been taking these tinctures during my transition as I weaned off Domperidone and they are amazing! My supply has stayed up and I know it was due to these tinctures because when I stopped taking them for a week, there was a small decrease in my supply. So, I will continue to order these tinctures throughout my breastfeeding journey. Super grateful to have something natural that works even better than the Domperidone!

Macy - thanks for sharing your story! We are thrilled our tinctures have help you wean of Domperidone. Thanks for taking the time to spread the news that herbal lactation support works!
