Generally does cinnamon and bay leaf help with milk production?

Patient's question:

Hello, my friend is currently breastfeeding. When cooking, she might need to add bay leaves and cinnamon. I was wondering if it's safe to consume bay leaves and cinnamon during breastfeeding?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you. According to the situation you described, spices like bay leaves and cinnamon are considered pungent seasonings and are prohibited during breastfeeding. I recommend that you rest well during breastfeeding, avoid fatigue, maintain a regular lifestyle, ensure sufficient sleep, and enhance your nutrition by eating fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins. Avoid cold, pungent, irritating foods, and fried foods. I hope this answer helps everyone.
