3 reasons to encapsulate your placenta - scroll through and read below ⬇️
1. Hormonal balancing: The placenta is rich in hormones that help balance a woman’s postpartum hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, and oxytocin. Encapsulation involves processing the placenta into capsules that can then be taken orally by the mother. This may help ease the symptoms of postpartum depression, anxiety, and mood swings.
2. Nutritional benefits: The placenta is also a rich source of nutrients that can help replenish the mother’s body after childbirth. It contains high levels of iron, protein, and vitamins B6 and B12. Encapsulating the placenta allows the mother to easily consume these nutrients, which can promote physical healing and increase energy levels after birth.
3. Traditional practice: Placenta encapsulation is a traditional practice that has been used in many cultures for centuries. In some cultures, the placenta is consumed raw, while in others it is boiled, dried and/or powdered before being ingested. Encapsulation provides a convenient and easy way for modern mothers to access these traditional benefits.
