Confinement soup made easy!
Excerpt from The Straits Times (Singapore)

'This dish is easy to prepare, low in calories and high in nutritional value. I do not need to stew Chinese herbs for hours. Instead, I add 30 to 60ml of Huiji Waist Tonic to my soup at the end. And it does not contain alcohol, which makes me feel safe as I was breast-feeding,' Ms Leong said.
