Assess the quality of your breastmilk at home with the Ayuvedic Breastmilk Test. Breast milk quality can have a significant influence on a baby’s well-being. If our milk is out of balance, the baby can develop the same imbalances, especially in the early months when they are exclusively breastfed. With the Ayurvedic Breast Milk Test, we can determine the imbalances in breast milk and work out how to help our babies be their most balanced and happy selves. 

How to do the Ayurvedic Breast Milk Test 

1. Fill a glass with water.
2. Add a few drops of breastmilk. 
3. Observe.

Milk Sinks

Sinking milk indicates an excess of Kapha, think symptoms like mucus, phlegm, or white discharge. 

Milk Floats

Floating milk indicates an excess of Vata. Constipation or bloating can be symptoms of a Vata imbalance. 

Discoloured Milk

Especially if your milk has a slight yellow tinge, you probably are dealing with excess Pitta. Excess heat and skin eruptions could be problems caused by a pitta imbalance.  

Milk Dissolves

Congratulations! Your breast milk is perfectly balanced. 

If you act fast, simple dietary changes can balance your breast milk. It usually takes a few days to take effect. Once you have adjusted your diet for a few days, do the test again, and see whether you have managed to resolve the issue.
