Harnessing the power of a herbal superfood blend, formulated by our founder Cindy, these Milk Machine capsules are designed to increase milk supply for nursing and pumping mothers.
We combined Moringa, Spirulina, Blessed Thistle, Alfalfa, Fennel and Nettle into this convenient capsule.
A complete source of plant protein with all 9 essential amino acids, high in fiber and contains exceptionally high levels of antioxidants. All of these nutrients but particularly protein, iron, vitamin K and calcium are needed in good milk supply.
The plant’s chemical makeup is 65% amino acids, including the essential fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). The high concentration of amino acids has made spirulina a popular nutritional supplement for those who are unable to obtain sufficient calories and protein through diet alone.
Blessed thistle has been revered since the Middle Ages in Europe for its use as a digestive stimulant and nutritive tonic. Blessed thistle works effectively when paired with other galactagogues.
Alfalfa, also called lucerne and called Medicago sativa in binomial nomenclature, is a perennial flowering plant in the legume family Fabaceae. It is cultivated as an important forage crop in many countries around the world. It has long been prized for its superior content of vitamins, minerals and protein.
Recognized for its tonic and nutritional value. It is rich in vitamins and minerals and has traditionally been used primarily in the spring time to stimulate slow winter blood. Nettle is a popular tonic used by many herbalists for treating iron deficiency, which improves milk supply.

Founder, certified herbalist and certified lactation counselor Cindy Collins provides some of the most common questions and answers for Milk Machine!
Before using any supplements for lactation, we always recommend working with a lactation consultant first for support and guidance. This product is intended for postpartum use only. We recommend using supplements before 4wks postpartum with recommendations from a lactation consultant.
This product is for anyone person that is lactating, breastfeeding or pumping regardless of baby's age.
We recommend starting with 2 capsules three times a day. If after the fourth day you don't see results, we suggest increasing to 3 capsules three times a day. If your baby is younger than 3 months, they are often more sensitive (i.e. supplements, dairy, caffeine) to things in your diet. We suggest starting at 1 capsule three times a day for 3 days and then increasing the dose if your baby can tolerate it.
How long a jar will last depends on your daily dosage.
A 60 count jar will last 10 days if you take 6 capsules per day.
A 120 count jar will last 20 days if you take 6 capsules per day.
A 250 count jar will last 41 days if you take 6 capsules per day.
The timeframe to see results varies widely, some customers see them in less than 24hrs and some customers may take up 10 days. If the supply issue is glandular related, it may take 3-4wks of consistent use to see results.
However most customers notice a difference within 7 days. If you are nursing, best way to measure results is baby baby’s weight gain and wet diaper output. Experiences others have had are: let down quicker, let down length, fullness of breast, pumping output increase, breastmilk composition change (i.e. hindmilk increase), baby nurses longer and seems more satisfied. Some customers may experience one or many of these things.
This product is 100% plant-based. It contains no animal derived ingredients.
Common side effects when taking dietary supplements are occasional upset stomach or indigestion, this can occur with any supplement or vitamin. If you have a sensitive digestive system, we recommend taking supplements with or after a meal. If you are unknowingly adverse to an ingredient – you could develop topical hives/rash, if this should occur please take a picture of rash, contact us and discontinue use of the product. Reported side effects are rare, however some other side effects are in increase in bowel movements, nausea, change in bowel movement color/consistency for either mom or baby. Additionally, if you experience a headache it’s often a symptom of dehydration especially when lactating. However if headache continues after hydrating well discontinue use of product and contact us. Also if you should notice any indigestion in your baby it could be an indirect result of supplements when your supply is increasing. When your supply is increasing you may experience overactive letdown, which can contribute to gassy & fussiness. You can read more about overactive letdown here and here.
If you have tried one or more blends and are interested in combining products to see if it will give you better results you may absolutely do so.
Some customers alternate blends daily. For example, some customers have combined products in the following ways:
a) Blend A in the morning (3 capsules), Blend B in the afternoon (3 capsules), Blend A and B in the evening(2-4 capsules).
b) Blend A & B three times during the day, 2-4 capsules total each dose.
c) Blend A on Monday, Blend B Tuesday, Blend A Wednesday, Blend B Thursday, etc.
Ideally for absorption, it’s advised to take them on an empty stomach. However not everyone can tolerate taking supplements or vitamins on an empty stomach, so if you need to take them with a meal or a drink that is fine. If you can take them on an empty stomach, great!
All of our Spirulina is now pond harvested – meaning is you suffer from a shellfish allergy, our Spirulina is now safe for you to consume.
These supplements can be used both short-term and long-term.
Some circumstances when customers use these supplements short-term are:
During growth baby spurts.
To recover from maternal illness, i.e a cold or mastitis.
Low supply due to temporarily hormonal dip related to menstrual cycle, we also suggest taking a calcium magnesium supplement during your menstrual cycle as it can help with the increase in estrogen that decreases milk production.
During times of stress that can negatively impact supply.
Returning to work or school.
Some circumstances when customers use these supplements long-term are:
All our ingredients are tested for heavy metals and microbiological contaminants. It contains no heavy metals.
If you are currently taking another product and want to switch from that brand to ours, if you have chronic low supply we do not suggest abruptly stoping a product and starting another as it may cause your supply dip. We do suggest continuing to take the other brand for 3 days after you have started one of our blends, then wean off of it. This will allow for time the new blend to build up on your system. However some customers do switch suddenly without any issues.
Yes this can be used in conjunction with Milky Mama tea.
Our lactation blends have a best by date on the label. We recommend using them within 1-2 years for maximum potency and effective
All of our blends work to increase milk supply. However they all do not work exactly the same for the same person as we are each are unique and can respond differently. When trying herbal supplements to increase milk production trial and error is necessary, there is not a a way to know precisely beforehand which blend will work best for you.Remember lactation supplements have their place but they can not replace the support and expert advice of a lactation consultant, we highly recommend contacting one if you are having breastfeeding issues. We can not guarantee a specific outcome or result, individual results may vary.
Over the weekend I had a bit of a scare.. without getting into too many details, I ended up in the hospital with appendicitis. I was already nervous about milk drying up because I have 3 other children and have had trouble with my milk supply especially after returning to work. I really, really wanted to do my best this [4th baby] time around. My baby is 2 months old and I had already returned to work and then I ended up in the hospital and put on a no liquid or food diet. I was terrified. THANKFULLY, I had my Milk Machine supplements with me in my pump bag. I believe they helped me those 3 days in the hospital. When I was on no liquids I would pump 1.4 oz, the next day it doubled 2.4 then I was allowed water... 5 oz each time I pumped. It gave me hope and comforted me while i was alone and stuck in the hospital room without my newborn. I am now safely home and back to nursing my sweet babe. I just signed up for a subscription which I highly recommend. You can create an account which is easy to manage. So much for skipping the details ;) I highly recommend euphoric herbals, I know they're safe and they work
I started taking this yesterday and I’m already seeing an increase on my milk supply. With my first pump of the day I usually got around 4oz and only 1-2oz every 2-3 hours throughout the day but after only 1 day of taking milk machine I produced a little over 7oz for my first pump and 4oz every 2-3 hours!! This product is amazing and I will continue to order
Thanks to this product, I am still nursing my son at 13 months (I weaned myself of the product at 11 months) and I even donated over 700 ounces of milk to a momma in need!
I went from producing only an ounce to 5 each breast.
It's a big help toward my milk production its healthy and helpful I'm order a combination pack this time
