Today we are exploring if placenta encapsulation is worth the hype. The placenta is an organ that develops in the uterus during pregnancy. This structure provides oxygen and nutrients to a growing baby. It also removes waste products from the baby's blood. The placenta attaches to the wall of the uterus, and the baby's umbilical cord arises from it. It is pretty phenomenal really! So what, if anything should we do with our placenta once it is birthed? Culture to culture it varies and today we explore the research and anecdotal research of placenta encapsulation so you can make an informed choice as to what resinates with you. In this episode we cover: - What is the placenta? - What different cultures do with the placenta and why? - The research and anecdotal research of placenta encapsulation. - Shells personal experience with placenta encapsulation. - What happens if you choose to keep your placenta in the hospital system - And of course heaps more.
