Answer

In the name of Allah the Provider

All of the above mentioned herbs are allowed and Halal to consume. Either individually or mixed with other dishes.

If your question is referring to the above mentioned herbs being used or presented in a capsule form for illnesses or other medicinal/non-medicinal reasons then they would be Halal to consume providing that the capsule in which they are is made from a vegetable source.

And Allah knows best
