Introduction
• What Is A Placenta?

- It is an organ that develops in the womb during pregnancy.

- It provides nutrients and oxygen to the growing baby and removes waste products from the baby's blood.

- After delivery, the placenta becomes a waste product from childbirth.

• What Is PLACENTOPHAGY?

Let's break down this term.
PLACENTA + PHAGY = PLACENTOPHAGY

Placenta- A shared organ between mother and unborn baby.
Phagy- To eat.

Placentophagy is the act of eating the placenta.

Placentophagy is practiced by 99% of all known mammals in the world.

• So Why Do People Eat Their Placenta?

People who have eaten the richly nutritious organ, placenta claim the following;

1. Prevents after birth depression
2. Prevents after delivery bleeding
3. It improves milk production

There are no MEDICAL FACTS to support these claims.

• My Take On PLACENTOPHAGY

ITS CANNIBALISM!

There are other ways to prevent postpartum depression
postpartum hemorrhage
increase breast milk production that does not involve being a CANNIBAL

There is also a high risk of INFECTION!!!
