Placenta consumption may sound off putting at first and for that reason, we invite you to open your mind, learn about the benefits and our process, and then decide if it's right for you.

For centuries the benefits of the placenta have been utilized for healing and restoring. In fact, because the placenta passes nutrients and oxygen to the fetus, it is recognized as a powerful nutrition source. This magical organ that grows within us exclusively during pregnancy has incredible potential to assist us during postpartum recovery.

The preparation begins with first, honoring this precious organ by caring for it with the highest safety and sanitary standards in mind.

                          The placenta is prepped and steamed.

                          Finely sliced and dehydrated.

                          Crushed into powder form.

                          Placed into gel capsules.

                          Bottled for safe keeping.
