the act of eating the placenta orplacentophagy, has been used​ in traditional Chinese medicine for hundreds of years. while most doctors don't have a problem with this practice there is no clinical trials or scientific research to prove that there are any beneficial results to this practice the majority of women who do it report positive benefits and say they will do it again but as i said more research needs to be

Not that it makes it right... but from what I can tell, he only copied the first mini-paragraph.  He did add his own information afterwards, I believe?


Anyways... no.. ew.. gross.. just... no. Absolutely not.  No. I can't say it enough.

Nope. I'm not female so I don't really have to ever have the option (and I don't want to have it).

Just... eeeewwww. Also, shame on you for copypasting AGAIN.

Well, as Singe pointed out, I can't eat my own placenta. But the thought is very gross.

People do if for the nutritional value, supposed to help with postpartum depression and such. Supporters I've met usually use t fact that since many animals do it, it's a natural healthy thing to do. Well, most animals also eat their own vomit, would you?

Light Knight :

Not that I like posting gross stuff. . . at all. . . BUT.

I've seen a dog eat a cat's crap.



Now I really want to do something just because an animal does it.

If research can be presented to me that shows it actually has a benefit, then yeah, sure. It's not like they just hand you a spoon right there in the delivery room... they typically take it, dry it out, powder it and put it in capsules now. I'm fine taking one of those if it does all the things that it says it does.

Elara :  I had actually heard about that and forgotten it.

I still wouldn't do it.  It's just gross in my opinion, and akin to cannibalism.  lol

It's nice to see a female's opinion in here finally, though.

No, I'm a not a girl.

I don't see why this would even happen in the first place. What was the first mother to do this thinking? "I just pushed a baby out of me and this wire came out with it. Maybe I should eat it!" What the heck? Haha I understand if people do it because they believe that it has medicinal value (which I don't buy), but the first woman to do that didn't know that it might possibly have medicinal value. Why would she even do that?

Somehow, I knew it was you who made this thread. Anyways, I would never do that. I'm not a girl, so I can't really relate to the experience of pregnancy, so I couldn't know what it would be like. One thing is for sure, though: You wouldn't see me eating a bloody mesh of skin that comes out of your "private parts." Although, maybe if it was cleaned out, dried, and whatnot, I'd consider eating a VERY small amount of it. No way I'd just dig into it right into the delivery room, though...

tgags123 : I would agree that the first person to try it is pretty ballsy, but it's well known that the placenta is an incredibly enriched sack that basically takes everything nutritious from what you put in your body and is absorbed by the fetus. Post-birth, all the vitamins and potential immunity support that haven't yet been absorbed for the baby are worthless after the placenta is passed. A lot of animals eat it and it gives them a huge boost in nutritious good stuff that they can feed their babies through their milk. Likewise a woman who eats her placenta would get all of that healthy stuff to themselves healthier and to potentially give to their babies via breastfeeding.

I get why people hypothetically would do it but the only conditions in which I would do it is if it was free and in capsule form. It's gross when you think about just sinking your teeth into a big, slippery sack of guts, but like Elara said, that's not really how it works. I don't really care enough about it that I would actually ask for it after giving birth, but if the doctor came in and was like "By the way, we powdered your placenta into capsules, you can take them if you want." I would probably say yes. However it goes. I don't really find it that appalling, though I can see why someone might. I'm pretty indifferent to the concept.

I definitely think the whole "The only way you can have a healthy baby is to breastfeed" and do stuff like this (eating the placenta) is complete BS. I'm not indifferent to this in particular because I don't care for babies and their healthfulness obviously, it's more that I find it unnecessary. Hopefully it doesn't become another thing that doctors try to guilt mothers into doing under the guise that they aren't caring for their child properly if they choose not to eat it.

KG :  I'd be rather upset if a doctor tried to guilt me into taking it, in all honesty.  Nutrition and good stuff considered.... I still wouldn't do it. There's no loss by not partaking.  Besides.... placing it into a different form really makes no difference in my opinion.  Like Light Knight said, animals do nasty things all the time that we avoid.  For example, rabbits sometimes eat and drink their own feces and urine to gain any nutrition their body didn't absorb on the first pass.  I'm sure our body misses some things as well, but I wouldn't eat and drink my stuff even if it was dried, powdered, and capsuled.

I don't hold anything against people that DO do it... I just can't imagine even considering it in my own opinion. XD

tgags123 : I'd assume that the first person to try it would be simply using it as food. Fuel for the tank, if you will. It might not seem "appetizing", but I bet earlier humans would have done it for that reason alone years ago. Humans still eat organs of other animals as food, even though I find it rather repulsive, even to this day, and those are just another part of the body. 

Singelli : "There's no loss by not partaking." But there is. The nutritional value. You can say you do not like it, or would not do such a thing, but the nutritional value cannot be denied, and not eating the placenta would be just that: a loss of nutrients.

sop281 :  I understand it has nutritional value and I understand what you're saying, but that's not exactly what I meant.  It's like... hmmmm.... by not eating the placenta, you're not losing something you'd normally have. All of those nutrients were intended for the baby and it's not like the moment the placenta is gone, your body dips into negative nutrition levels.  (Gosh.. that's a horrible way of explaining it!)

If I eat an apple, I gain from it, right?
But I'm not losing anything by NOT eating it...  I'm just simply not gaining. There's a difference between losing, and not gaining.
