BAKIT HINDI INIREREKOMENDA ANG MYRA-E SA BREASTFEEDING MOMS? Ang vitamin E ay isang uri ng fat-soluble vitamins na maaaring tumagal sa loob ng ating katawan. Kapag tumagal ito sa loob, POSIBLE itong makalason kung sobra sobra ang iniinom natin. Ang recommended amount ng Vitamin E para sa breastfeeding moms ay approximately 30 I.U. (international units - ginagamit na panukat sa fat soluble vitamins) samantalang ang Myra-E ay mayroong 300-400 I.U. Sobra sobra ito sa recommended amount at dahil fat soluble, mahihirapan ang katawan natin na ilabas ito kaagad. May POSIBILIDAD na lumabas sa pamamagitan ng breastmilk ang sobrang Vitamin E at POSIBLE itong magkaroon ng epekto kay baby. NOTE: Kahit anong vitamin E na more than 30IU ay hindi inirerekomenda sa breastfeeding moms. Isinulat ni: Van Mallorca - Breastfeeding Mommy Blogger DISCLAIMER: Your body, your call. Kayo po ang bahala kung gusto niyo pa ring mag take ng Myra E or any equivalent brand while breastfeeding. This information is just a guide. Please join Breastfeeding Pinays for more important info about breastfeeding. Quoting from e-lactancia.org "The daily vitamin E requirements for a breastfeeding mother are 12 to 19 mg (28 IU) daily; and for an infant in the first year of life, 4 to 5 mg (6 to 8 IU) (NIH 2016, Ares 2015, Hall 2010). No supplements are necessary if diet and nutritional status are adequate. Supplementation does not increase milk levels in well-nourished women, but does so in those with low nutritional status." http://e-lactancia.org/breastfeeding/tocopherol/synonym/ Quoting from Healthline: "Vitamin E Toxicity Overdosing on vitamin E is difficult when it is obtained from natural dietary sources. Cases of toxicity have only been reported after people have taken very high doses of supplements. Yet, compared to vitamin A and D, overdosing on vitamin E appears to be relatively harmless. It may have blood-thinning effects, counteracting the effects of vitamin K and causing excessive bleeding. Thus, people who take blood-thinning medications should avoid taking large doses of vitamin E (38, 41, 42). Additionally, at high doses of more than 1,000 mg per day, vitamin E may have pro-oxidant effects. That is, it can become the opposite of an antioxidant, potentially leading to oxidative stress (43)." https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/fat-soluble-vitamins#vitE 📷 Unilab
