Abstract

Katuk (Sauropus androgynus (L.) Merr.) leaf and its products, culturally have been used by lactation mothers in Indonesia to improve their milk production. A limited study examined the different processing/serving of the leaf to the milk releasing. This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of katuk leaves on the milk production of breastfeeding mothers based on studies conducted in Indonesia. A literature review was performed on 6 studies selected through 2 Indonesian article search engines, Garuda (garuda.kemdikbud.go.id) and Indonesia One Search (onesearch.id) for the period of 2016-2021. Keywords used for the selection were katuk leaf, breast milk production, nursing mothers, and Sauropus androgynus. The inclusion criteria for the selection of the articles were an experimental study in breastfeeding mothers, full text written in Indonesian or English, and published in a journal indexed by Scopus 1-4 or by Indonesian journal indexation, Sinta 1-4. All the studies in this review reported that supplementation of katuk leaf in the form of extract capsules, katuk boiled water, and katuk biscuits significantly increase the milk production of healthy breastfeeding mothers. Two studies reported an increase in the baby’s weight and the mother’s prolactin hormone, respectively. The milk production of breastfeeding mothers who consumed the katuk leaf was reported better than those who did not consume the leaf with a majority of p-value 0.000.
