  abstract: Lack of breast milk production is the most frequent cause of breastfeeding failure in babies among lactating women. The uses of natural substances called galactagogue may assist the production of breast milk. Banana flower of plantain named Musa x paradisiaca ABB or locally known as Pisang Abu or Pisang Nipah contains galactagogue property which has been proven its effectiveness in an animal study. However, there is no data on its effectiveness on human yet. The aim of this study was to produce lactogenic biscuits made from banana flower of Pisang Abu or Pisang Nipah and to investigate the efficacy of the biscuits in increasing milk production within three weeks' consumption among lactating women. There are two phases of study. The first phase; the laboratory based experimental, involved the production process of banana flower into flour and biscuits, the sensory evaluation as well as proximate analysis. The banana flower flour was mixed with the wheat flour at a certain ratio to be prepared. Finally, four biscuits formulation were produced; as BFF30 (30% banana flower flour + 70% wheat flour), BFF40 (40% banana flower flour + 60% wheat flour), BFF50 (50% banana flower flour + 50% wheat flour) and BFF60 (60% banana flower flour + 40% wheat flour). All four formulated biscuits were analysed to determine their proximate nutrients and sensory acceptability. The best formulation was chosen as a prototype for the second phase experiment. In the second phase, a human trial was conducted among lactating working women. A total of 58 mother-infant pairs were assigned into two groups. Group I (n=29) consists of mothers who consumed plain biscuits as placebo while Group II (n=29) consumed the lactogenic biscuits which contained banana flower flour. Expressed breast milk, anthropometric indices of mothers and infants were recorded before and after the consumption of the biscuits. Dietary intake information of the respondents was taken to assess the maternal calories intake. The…
