Placenta Encapsulation & Tincture

---

Placenta encapsulation preserves the placenta for consumption postpartum. The preservation process includes dehydrating the placenta, grounding it into a powder, and then putting the powder into vegetable based (vegan) capsules for use.

What is the benefit of placenta encapsulation? During the first few days after birth, the hormones within the body that surged to help nourish a healthy pregnancy quickly drop. This shift can be difficult for the physical and emotional body to experience. By consuming the placenta postpartum, these hormones and additional nutrients are reintroduced into the body and can make for a smoother transition out of pregnancy and birth and into postpartum. 

The encapsulation process takes approximately 24 hours.

If you are local to Squamish, I will come pick up your placenta after birth and you can expect your capsules within 48 hours.  

Placenta tincture is a concentrated liquid taken orally in drops. The tincture is made by placing a piece of the dehydrated placenta in 60% or higher alcohol (I use Vodka) and left to concentrate for 6 weeks. The tincture, when stored correctly in a dark and cool place, is good for a lifetime. More research is coming out on the benefits of placenta tincture during menopause!
