Hello, I have started a fitness program. With the subscription I received a pre-workout and a protein shake. I am 24 years old and I am breastfeeding my 7 month old baby.

Good morning, Mrs,

This type of product contains several ingredients for which we do not have enough solid information regarding their safety during breastfeeding. I suggest avoiding pre-workout.

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
