Bird nest with ginseng and rock sugar

Hello mummies! I’m currently in my week 13. My PIL just bought a carton of New Moon Bird Nest with American Ginseng and Rock Sugar for me… but I’ve done some reading which says that ginseng is not recommended during pregnancy. Am wondering if it is safe for me to consume? Thinking the ginseng content may not be high in such drinks, but I’m still a little sceptical as it is my first pregnancy. Appreciate any kind advice, thank you!

I would avoid :) Better to be safe than sorry. Maybe ask your hub to ask them if can exchange with the non ginseng version? Alternatively, I think all these have long expiry, perhaps you can take them after birth/breastfeeding? :)
