Are pre-packaged confinement herb soup safe for breastfeeding?

I just ordered a 30-day confinement herbs soup package from laobanniang as prep for my confinement. Informed my mum and she claims that I should not have bought them as these confinement soup packs include a lot of herbs and some of them are unsafe for consumption during breastfeeding. Zzzz. Is there any truth in this or is she just scaring me for nothing?

I checked with PD before, he doesn’t seems to be concerned of the herbs we ate and applied during confinement. He just said no alcohol. If you are still concern like me, just wait 2-3 hrs after your meal to breastfeed
