as Mariah has said, it’s a filter, it’s also an organ, I wouldn’t have my liver removed and then choose to consume it, there’s no scientific evidence that it’s beneficial from research I have done
Auto cannibalism has never appealed to me
Placenta is technically a waste product. It’s a filter for all the nasty stuff baby did not need. I cannot see an actual benefit that could come from consuming it
It has been beneficial to my ppd and hormone levels
@Dominyque how do you know that? Could just be a placebo effect.
Its called a doctor constantly checking and measuring my hormone levels and I haven’t tried to kill myself or my baby
@Dominyque trying to kill yourself or your baby is not the only symptom or outcome of ppd darl
@Beth no duh but a big piece
I mean animals eat plenty of things we’d never consume, like dead things 😅 lol when I looked into it, I heard from an OB that the placenta acts like a “filter” for the baby and by eating it, you’re consuming all the things that your body filtered out in the first place. That was enough reasoning for me to say no thanks 🤷🏽♀️
