Placenta Encapsulation: A Value-Adding Option for Birth Preparation

Placenta encapsulation is a process that has been gaining popularity in recent years as an option for birth preparation. It involves the process of cleaning, optional steaming, dehydrating, and grinding the placenta into a fine powder, which is then placed into capsules for consumption. While some may find the idea unappealing, there are many benefits to placenta encapsulation that make it a valuable option for those who are looking for natural ways to support their postpartum recovery.

One of the biggest benefits of placenta encapsulation is its ability to help people heal faster and better after birth. The placenta contains a variety of nutrients and hormones that are essential for postpartum recovery, including iron, protein, and oxytocin. By consuming the placenta in capsule form, people can replenish these nutrients and hormones, which can help reduce postpartum bleeding, increase milk supply, and enhance feelings of well-being.

The History and Benefits of Placenta Consumption After Childbirth

​The practice of consuming the placenta after giving birth has been around for centuries and is still a common tradition in many cultures around the world. Although it may seem strange to some, the benefits of placenta consumption are numerous and have been well documented. From increased energy levels to improved mood, the placenta is a valuable resource for new parents. In this post, we'll explore the history of postpartum placenta consumption and the reasons why it's still practised today.

The history of placenta consumption dates back to the ancient civilizations of China, where the placenta was believed to have medicinal properties. It was used to promote healing and boost energy levels, and was often consumed in a variety of forms, including raw, dried, or made into a tea. In traditional Chinese medicine, the placenta is considered to be one of the most valuable parts of the human body, and is used to help restore balance and promote health.

What is placenta encapsulation?

​Placenta encapsulation is a popular practice in postpartum care, as it is believed to have many benefits for postpartum recovery. At its most basic, the process involves taking the placenta, which nourished the baby during pregnancy, and dehydrating it, grinding it into a powder, and then placing it into capsules for consumption. Many other styles and types of remedies can be created from the placenta, however.

There are several reported benefits of placenta encapsulation, including increased energy, improved mood, and faster postpartum healing. Some people also report an increase in milk production, and a decrease in postpartum bleeding. Additionally, the placenta is a rich source of hormones such as progesterone and oestrogen, which can help regulate the hormonal cycle after giving birth. The placenta has created an hormonal ecosystem within the body which has been sustained for nine months, and which ceases to exist immediately upon placental delivery. Through careful preservation and preparation into managed portions, the placenta can be reintroduced into the body in order to ameliorate this enormous transition in state from pregnant to postnatal.

It is vital to research and speak with an appropriately trained and experienced healthcare professional before making the decision to try it. Practitioners should have been trained by a body with appropriate accreditation from a body such as the Placenta Remedies Network, have up to date health, safety, and food preparation certificates​, and sufficient experience in this niche field. This will ensure that your placenta is properly prepared and handled to avoid any potential risks or contamination.

Those interested in placenta encapsulation should use the look for a trained and certified professional with the Find a Specialist search feature on the PRN website. It is also important to note that placenta encapsulation may not be suitable for everyone and should be avoided in certain situations. For this reason, it is vital that you check with your chosen Specialist if your own personal circumstances are in any way contraindicative to the creation of placenta remedies. Do remember that even if one type of remedy is not suitable for you, your Specialist will be able to recommend product options that are appropriate for you.

Overall, placenta encapsulation is a personal choice and should be carefully considered in consultation with a healthcare professional. With such incredible benefits, though, what are you waiting for!?

    Nyssa Craig

    Hi friend, thanks so much for hopping on over here for a wee squizz at my many musings!

    I'm Nyssa, a Brighton-based and Scottish-born massage therapist, placenta remedies specialist, birth support worker (full-spectrum doula), and fertility specialist.
    ​
    I specialise in providing services to those often underserved by existing practitioners - particularly those who have felt excluded from mainstream service providers for ANY reason, such as weight, sexuality, gender identity, disability, neuroatypical processing, et cetera.
    This blog is somewhere you can find my rants on all the above topics (and so much more - love a good rant, me!), as well as more information on my areas of specialism, given the frequent lack of discussion thereon.

    So have a browse, and drop me a comment to let me know your own thoughts!
