Newborn Golden Thread Tea Kit 100 ct
Golden Thread Newborn Tea is traditionally used for the prevention of newborn jaundice by the rapid expulsion of meconium. Newborn jaundice is a condition that arises from a baby's blood bilirubin levels increasing due to the reabsorption of meconium (this is different from adult jaundice which is due to sever liver or gallbladder issues). Meconium is the funky black poo that babies have been ingesting and eliminating while in the womb. The longer the meconium stays in a baby's system the more reabsorption happens and the higher the baby's bilirubin levels get eventually leading to jaundice. The quicker the meconium is expelled out of the baby's system the less time it has to be reabsorbed thereby keeping the baby's bilirubin levels from jumping and jaundice from occurring in the first place.
This product is designed for use immediately after birth and is not intended for use past 36 hours old. Best results are when the tea is given within the first 6 hours of life. The tea can be giving immediately after birth (I gave it to one baby when he was 5 minutes old and still attached via umbilical cord while he and his mommy were still resting in the birthing tub. He had fabulous results and the added bonus of his stimulated digestive system encouraging him to nurse, which he did very quickly once they were moved to the bed). The tea works optimally when it is the first thing in a baby's system, but will still work even if they have started nursing some.
