Potential side effects associated with use of gardenia capsules or essential oil may include loss of appetite, diarrhea or loose stools, skin irritation and inflammation, and possible complication in pregnant/nursing women and with children.
Although the oil has been used for many years to support milk production in nursing mothers, there haven’t been many studies proving it is always safe for pregnant or nursing women. Because there is not enough known about the potential effects of gardenia during pregnancy or breast-feeding, use caution and consider consulting your doctor first. *
