Implication

Assessment reveals increased milk production and prolactin levels in lactating rats given nutsedge tubers, suggesting a potential solution for breastfeeding issues.

Key Points

  • Milk production increased significantly, with lactating rats on the MPNT 40% diet producing 36.58 g compared to 27.52 g in the control group.
  • Serum prolactin levels were highest in rats receiving the 40% nutsedge tuber milk powder, correlating with improved milk output.
  • Mammary gland histological analysis indicated better lobule-alveolar organization after dietary intake of nutsedge tubers.
  • The study involved 72 nulliparous lactating rats, monitored for 17 days over various dietary interventions.
