@glucio, yes! I put it in regular cookie dough and make cookies (instead of buying the expensive ones) and I also sprinkle it on my oatmeal. Oatmeal is another good source. I also take fenugreek capsules

@bri28, what is fenugreek?

Yes, you can make cookies with the yeast in it and it supposedly works great!

@karnamarie, thanks! I was thinking about taking pills. I wonder if that works

@glucio fenugreek worked for me but it can make you smell funny... I always smelled milk maple syrup

@karnamarie, I just want to make more milk. I only got an ounce when I just pumped

Fenugreek is actually seeds or can be fresh leaves that's used in some cuisines. Here, it can be used to artificially flavor maple syrup, cause it's sweet. You can buy them in capsules and powder. I do the capsules 580-610mg and take 12 per day. It has really helped my milk supply. I get them at Walmart, 100 capsules, $4

@glucio make sure you are drinking TONS of water... even if you don't feel thirsty you need to always have water in your hand. That helps with supply
