The Placenta is responsible for the production and regulation of iron, hormones, and proteins during pregnancy. It is the power-house of your entire pregnancy…producing and regulating hormones that each have specific jobs to ensure the survival of your baby. Without a healthy Placenta, pregnancy cannot be sustained.
After delivery, the Placenta remains rich in these nutrients and can offer countless benefits for the postpartum woman. Some of the most notable Benefits include reduced risk of postnatal anemia and postpartum depression, increased energy and milk supply, and faster healing/recovery time.
Historically, Placentophagy, or the consumption of one’s placenta, has been practiced in various cultures for thousands of years. Traditional Chinese medicine has always considered the placenta to be a very powerful medicinal supplement, as it is life giving and stores the vital essence for the baby. During the past 100 years, with the rise of Western Medicine, Placentophagy has become a forgotten practice. Only with the recent resurgence of “Natural Birthing” are we getting back to our roots of doing what is best for our bodies and babies naturally!
