The only thing that concerns me with this particular tea is that it contains
(3) herbs from the mint family.  Herbs from this family have been known to
decrease milk supply in some.  I would use it with caution.
One of the things that she can do is to take echinacea herself and apply a
few drops of echinacea directly to the breast and the infant will get it
during nursing.  This has worked to stimulate the immune system for many
without the drying side effects of mints.
I hope this information helps.  If you need any further information, please
don't hesitate to contact me on my 800# listed in my sig. line.
