Lactation Cookie Study
NCT04805008 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Lactation cookies contain ingredients thought to increase breast milk production. Although these cookies are widely purchased and consumed with the intention to increase breast milk supply, no scientific investigation has explored the effects of lactation cookies on human breast milk production. This study will evaluate the effects of a lactation cookie in breast milk production, relative to cookies without ingredients thought to increase breast milk production in exclusively breastfeeding mothers of healthy, term babies.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04805008
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04805008 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 176 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Indiana University, which has 1,026 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Breastfeeding appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Lactation cookies is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04805008 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Indiana. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
