For centuries, mammals have been consuming their placentas postpartum. This practice has both physiological and psychological benefits, including marked reductions in postpartum depression and hormonal fluctuations. Consumption of the placenta following childbirth can increase levels of oxytocin, the 'love' hormone responsible for nurturing the bond between mother and child. Oxytocin is also responsible for stimulation of milk ejection (milk letdown). Physiologically, blood loss after childbirth causes a decrease in blood iron levels leading to fatigue and depression.
Consumption of the placenta replenishes iron lost after childbirth (postpartum bleeding), enhances milk supply and allows for more energy.
One method of placental consumption is placenta encapsulation. The placenta is dehydrated, ground up and encapsulated in order to be an easy and convenient method of consumption.
