Abstract

Introduction: Moringa (Moringa oleifera) leaves are rich in nutrients and phytochemicals that may enhance lactation performance. Breastfeeding mothers often experience inadequate milk production, and moringa supplementation has been explored as a potential natural galactagogue. Methods: This systematic review aimed to analyze the effects of moringa leaf consumption on breast milk quantity in lactating mothers. A comprehensive search was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2015 and 2025. Inclusion criteria encompassed randomized controlled trials and observational studies evaluating moringa leaf preparations (powder, extract, or capsules) compared with placebo or standard care. Data extraction focused on milk volume, lactation duration, and maternal nutritional outcomes. Results: Across the included studies, supplementation with moringa leaves consistently increased milk production. Most trials reported a significant increase in milk volume during the first 2 weeks postpartum compared with control groups (p < 0.05). Phytochemical components, such as flavonoids and saponins, in moringa are believed to stimulate prolactin secretion and enhance maternal nutrition. However, variations in dosage, preparation form, and study design led to moderate heterogeneity across studies. Conclusion: Moringa leaf consumption significantly enhances breast milk quantity among lactating mothers. Its use as a natural galactagogue holds promise in improving breastfeeding success and maternal nutrition, particularly in low-resource settings. Moringa leaf supplements can be recommended as a natural galactagogue for breastfeeding mothers, in conjunction with a balanced diet and adequate hydration, to support milk production and infant health.

Abstract

In Indonesia, most elderly people live with their families, but there are also many elderly people who end up living in nursing homes, which are shared living facilities for the elderly provided by the government. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between family support and depression levels among elderly people at the Sabai Nan Aluih Sicincinnursing home. This study used a descriptive correlational research design with a cross-sectional approach using a questionnaire as the research instrument. The sampling technique used total sampling with a total of 85 respondents. Bivariate data analysis was performed using the chi-square test. The results of the study obtained from 85 respondents found that 69 respondents received poor family support and 16 respondents received good family support, so that 43 respondents were found to experience moderate levels of depression. From the chi-square test results, a p-value of 0.0001 was found, which is less than 0.05, meaning that here is a relationship between family support and depression levels in the elderly. Based on this study, it can be concluded that family support plays an important role in the psychological development of the elderly. The results of this study can be used as input for nursing home health services to convey to families the importance of playing a role in the psychological development of the elderly by always visiting them at the nursing home.
