Congratulations for looking into this. I encapsulate placentas as part of my doula service. Honestly Doll, the end result looks like any other herbal capsules, no one would be able to tell the difference. I think when we talk about "eating our placenta" people envision having to sit down to a plate with a knife and fork and chowing down.
Getting DH to research it himself is a great idea! He'll no doubt come back to you trying to talk you into it himself when he reads about the benefits!!
Kelly started a new thread today on this very subject, feel free to visit and chat to me!!

Good luck!
