WHAT IS PLACENTA ENCAPSULATION?

Placenta encapsulation involves cleaning, steaming, dehydrating, grinding, and encapsulating your placenta into convenient capsules. While this practice became popular in the US during the 1970s, many indigenous cultures worldwide have long used placenta consumption to support postpartum recovery.

WHY CONSIDER PLACENTA ENCAPSULATION?

Placenta encapsulation is a natural postpartum practice that involves cleaning, steaming, dehydrating, and grinding the placenta into capsules for easy consumption. This tradition has roots in many indigenous cultures worldwide and has gained popularity in modern postpartum care for its reported physical and emotional benefits.

Many new mothers who choose placenta encapsulation report a range of positive effects, including:

Reduced Postpartum Depression and Mood Stabilization: The placenta contains hormones and nutrients that may help balance postpartum mood swings and reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.
Increased Energy and Faster Recovery: Nutrients such as iron, vitamin B6, and proteins in the placenta may support increased energy levels and aid in quicker physical recovery after childbirth.
Improved Milk Supply: Some mothers notice an increase in breast milk production, supporting a healthy breastfeeding journey.
Enhanced Hair and Nail Health: The rich nutrient content may contribute to stronger hair and nails during the postpartum period.
Natural Hormone Support: The placenta contains hormones that may help regulate and stabilize your body’s own hormone production after birth.

While scientific research is ongoing, many women have found placenta encapsulation to be a valuable part of their postpartum wellness routine, helping them feel more balanced, energized, and supported during the transition into motherhood.
