Can breastfeeding women with anemia drink chicken soup?

Patient's question:

The doctor herself is currently breastfeeding, and the baby is almost five months old. I have severe anemia and very severe acne. Can I drink ginseng stewed chicken soup? Will it cause milk to dry up, and is it bad for the baby?

Doctor's answer:

Great, I'm happy to help you clarify. You can drink ginseng chicken soup during breastfeeding, but you should be mindful not to consume too much. Generally, ginseng is too warming and overly nourishing, which can be harmful to your health. You can use about 3 grams of ginseng and pair it with ingredients like black chicken or pork trotters for stewing. Pay attention to adjusting your diet, drinking more soup, ensuring deep sleep, and adjusting your mood. Stay active to enhance the function of your digestive system. A mother's health is the foundation of her baby's health. Pay attention to a balanced diet and avoid excessive nourishment?
