At first I was turned off to the idea, but after further research I was intrigued with all the wonderful benefits. Placentophagy, or consumption of the placenta, has been reported for decades to help stop the baby blues and diminish postpartum fatigue. Powdered placenta has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries. In the postpartum period, placenta capsules can be used to balance your hormones, enhance your milk supply, and increase your energy! Placenta Capsules may also help you to recover more quickly from birth, bring the body back into balance, shorten postpartum bleeding, assist the uterus to return to size, and increase postpartum iron levels. Placenta is encapsulated within 48 hours after the birth. While you bond with your new baby, I come to your home and take care of your placenta. I bring all of the necessary equipment and encapsulation materials to your home to complete the process. All materials used thoroughly sterilized between each use, when not disposable, and everything meets food grade standards. Aside from the medicinal aspects, I treat the placenta as sacred, and will focus on honoring the work it has done to nourish your baby, while preparing it to continue its work nourishing you.
