Hi all,

I ate some of my placenta - it is high in iron and hormones and it definitely works to lessen/stop the blues.

Cooking it ruins many of the good benefits so the best thing to do is cut it into small capsule/tablet sized pieces with a very sharp knife and freeze them. Just swallow two every couple of hours with lots of water - because they are frozen you cant taste anything.

It sounds gross but it honestly is very good for you. I'm no hippy and at first it seemed weird but it definitely makes you feel better!

It also helped that my partner cut the pieces up for me! My placenta was frozen so it took a lot more effort but it was worth it.

I took the placenta mainly on days when I was feeling exhausted or teary or when I remembered and found I didn't need it after week two so I didn't need more cut up.

Hope that helps!
