Answer by Dr. Ru: About Theostene usage in lactation

Cocoa contains Theostene (Dimethyl-3,7-xanthine), a caffeine derivative with a less neuro-excitability effect. In those cases of maternal overuse (more than 400 g a-day) irritability or colicky pain may appear in the infant. 100 g of chocolate contains 120 to 230 mg of Theostene and 20 to 30 mg of caffeine.
