Placenta encapsulation is extremely beneficial for a happy postpartum experience. Many of the common complaints after child birth can be addressed by ingesting the placenta pills.
Fatigue – Fatigue is one of the most common complaints of new moms. Traditional Chinese Medicine has used placenta in treatments for fatigue among men, women and children for centuries. Iron deficiency is linked to extreme fatigue and some studies have shown a link to postpartum depression. The placenta is a rich, natural iron store. Placenta encapsulation is an ideal way to replace iron loss from giving birth.
Lactation – The benefits of placenta on breastfeeding are wonderful. Studies have shown that women who have been pre-determined to likely incur issues during breastfeeding show incredible increase in lactation. Imagine how beneficial it could be for a woman with no nursing hindrances? In addition to the possible hormones that help establish and encourage lactation, taking placenta has shown positively to help combat fatigue and postpartum depression, which both can inhibit your ability to successfully breastfeed.
Hormone Replacement -While pregnant, the body, specifically in the placenta, produces high levels of hormones. Once that hormone producing organ is removed, the body essentially has a total lack of hormones until the body recognizes its need to start producing again. It makes sense then by slowly and most importantly, naturally replacing those hormones produced throughout the pregnancy in the placenta by ingesting it, your emotional sense of well being will be maintained as your body realigns itself with its hormonal needs.
Pain Relief – Studies have shown that placenta helps increase the effectiveness ofopioids (your bodies natural pain relievers). Although the placenta is not able to provide pain relief entirely of its own fruition, I would definitely recommend the use of placenta capsules to coincide with other pain relief medication. It will increase the effectiveness of the opioids and will decrease the quantity needed of other pain relief options.
Are there other options for placenta ingestion? Besides placenta encapsulation, some cultures and indeed others in Western culture have been known to create special recipes for their placenta, put it in smoothies, or even eat it raw. While all of these are viable ways to enjoy the benefits of the placenta, their shelf life is extremely limited. Placenta Encapsulation San Diego gives you the flexibility to store your capsules indefinitely, whether you want to save them for menopause or in the event of a stressful situation. Encapsulating your placenta, also allows for discreetly taking the capsules amongst those who wouldn’t “understand” your decision or for traveling.
