Encapsulation of the placenta

  • Why consume your placenta?

    Consuming your placenta postpartum has been shown to have many benefits, like replenishing depleted iron(and other nutrients), decreasing postpartum bleeding, increasing breast milk production, balancing your system/hormones, while also giving you more energy, and aiding in the return of the uterus to the pre-pregnancy state.

  • What is placenta encapsulation?

    The process of encapsulating a placenta involves several steps to ensure the safe consumption and potential benefits for the postpartum mother.

    Once it is picked up from your location of birth, we can begin! It will be thoroughly cleaned and prepped, following proper sanitation and preparation procedures which ensure the highest quality of capsules possible. After cleaning, the steaming process can begin, following the Traditional Chinese Medicine principles. After steaming, the placenta is dehydrated low and slow, and finally, ground into a fine powder. The powder then gets put into non-gmo/vegetarian capsules, which are stored in a glass (usually amber) container.

  • BENEFITS:

    1. Nutrient Replenishment:

    The placenta is rich in iron and other nutrients that may help replenish what was lost during childbirth.

    2. Hormonal Balance:

    Consuming of the placenta can help balance hormones postpartum, potentially reducing the risk of postpartum depression.

    3. Increased Milk Production:

    Placenta encapsulation may boost lactation and improve milk supply.

    4. Energy Boost:

    The nutrients and hormones in the placenta are believed by some to help increase energy levels and combat fatigue.

    5. Pain Relief:

    Some claim that the placenta contains natural pain-relief properties that can aid in postpartum recovery.
