Placenta Preparation:
What if someone
told you they made a single, natural supplement that could reduce your
risk of postpartum depression, made sure you had plenty of breast
milk for your new baby, hurried you along the post-birth healing
process, gave you plenty of energy (like you didn't even have a baby),
built back your blood supply and iron count in half the time, and gave
you and your baby just the right nutritional and hormonal support for
the first month after birth, would you be interested?
Nearly every new mother can have the opportunity to experience a great
postpartum, by using one simple resource: The placenta (Jennifer West
Author of The Natural Healing Power of the Placenta)
Placenta encapsulation is the process of preparing the mother’s placenta after the birth of her baby by dehydrating, powdering and placing it into capsules for the mother to ingest. Encapsulation takes 2 days and 2 visits to your home.
Preparing the placenta for raw ingestion is the process of cleaning and preparing the mother’s placenta after the birth of her baby and then freezing it in serving size amounts.
