You need to approach the concept of "detox" very carefully for nursing mothers. Your body already has its own detox systems — your liver and kidneys do this job regularly. Special detox diets, fruit juice cleanses, or herbal mixes can pass into breast milk and potentially harm your baby.
Instead, what you can do: drink plenty of water (2.5-3 liters a day), focus on green leafy vegetables, whole grains like oats, and quality protein sources. Reducing processed foods and excess sugar already gives your body the best help in doing its own job.
Before making any diet or supplement changes during nursing, definitely check with your doctor.
