placenta encapsulation
Placenta encapsulation is the process of preparing the placenta in capsule form for ingestion by the birthing parent. The placenta is the organ which nourishes baby in the womb, and it contains many beneficial vitamins, minerals, hormones, proteins, stem cells, and other nutrients that help ease postpartum recovery. The capsules are completely tasteless, and are similar in size and appearance to an herbal supplement.
Reasons to encapsulate:
♥ Ward off “baby blues” and postpartum depression by balancing hormones
♥ Increase breast milk production
♥ Speed healing time
♥ Boost energy levels
♥ Replenish iron and other nutrients lost through childbirth
How is placenta encapsulation done?
Placenta encapsulation takes approximately 2-3 days from start to finish. I pick up the placenta as soon as possible after the baby’s birth, preferably within a few hours. Proper precautions are taken to ensure cleanliness and prevent contamination during all steps of the process. I begin by rinsing the placenta and examining it for completeness and anatomical variations. I thinly slice the placenta, then dehydrate it until completely dry. Then, I grind it into a fine powder which is placed into capsules.
