Iron Iron restores your body’s hemoglobin levels and thus increases energy. Low iron is associated with low hormone levels, fatigue, the inability to concentrate, and symptoms of depression. Consuming one’s placenta is the iron equivalent of two blood transfusions! Selenium Selenium has antioxidant properties which protect from free radical damage, aids the thyroid in hormone production and balance, aids in uterine recovery, and decreases the risk of postpartum depression. Zinc Zinc is located in every tissue in our body. It is antioxidant, aids in hormonal balance, and has anti-inflammatory properties. It supports the immune system, increases energy, and assists in wound healing. B6 B6 can help prevent depression, improve mental clarity, supports the immune system, and aids in wound healing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636582296085-FI3ZSN84102JXHY192ZQ/12957433_10154147204833711_5925056163029922522_o.jpg Why Preserve Your Placenta? - Other Things In the Placenta Oxytocin Oxytocin (AKA the love hormone) helps alleviate maternal hemorrhage at birth by stimulating contractions that safely and effectively detach the placenta and enables lactation. When taken internally it reduces anxiety. Progesterone Progesterone is released by the ovaries and helps regulate menstrual cycles, prepares the uterus for implantation, helps a woman retain her pregnancy, and prepares the mammary glands to produce milk. When ingested progesterone can promote mental clarity and general cognitive function postpartum. It has a similar effect to anti-anxiety medication and boosts energy. Prostaglandin Prostaglandin is known as the “postpartum healer”. It helps reduce hemorrhages, inflammation, and can help repair vaginal and rectal tearing as well as the placental attachment site internally. Estrogen Estrogen is the primary female sex hormone. It is anti-inflammatory and mobilizes white blood cells to fight infections. Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (CRH) By the time a woman goes into labor, she has roughly 3x her pre-pregnancy CRH levels. This hormone helps us handle the intense stress of labor and delivery. Consuming the placenta can often slowly decrease these levels that would otherwise plummet post-delivery, resulting in a more stable emotional experience for the mother. Prolactin Prolactin is mostly made in the pituitary gland and has over 300 functions in the human body. It’s main function is to help new mothers produce milk. 86% of women who consumed dehydrated placenta saw an increase in milk production! Endorphines and Opioids These naturally reduce pain and alleviate stress in the body. They are highly concentrated in the placenta and when consumed flood the body with a sense of well-being. The main endorphin is called Placental Opioid-Enhancing Factor (POEF) and it is more powerful than synthetic morphine. https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/home daily 1.0 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/9907f431-4d20-49fe-802a-252b627931bc/birthphotos2019.1.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636503255457-IGVOWQVOGORL2IABXYYK/unsplash-image-YSbvqo9YLHA.jpg Home https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/contact daily 0.75 2021-11-10 https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/about daily 0.75 2021-11-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1637282041530-1T1PJ2AENXDC7X0M42V8/JennyHS-1.jpg What I'm About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636494374537-VYJEKLGSR3PE212R0NCT/Biologixlogo.jpeg What I'm About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636493687102-XE19W2VT0F1D0BXVJ7TH/BB+Badge.jpg What I'm About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636494557452-YMWGPET85LPNYM16W17L/statefoodicon.png What I'm About https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/general-6-2 daily 0.75 2021-11-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Tinctures https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Tinctures https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/packages daily 0.75 2026-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636419834506-9BM6H9ZND2U8R915ZQ4O/4+copyDark.png Packages https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636422028875-9BKPQZNT7TI0QW4FI67Y/4+copyDark.png Packages https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636419834506-9BM6H9ZND2U8R915ZQ4O/4+copyDark.png Packages https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1636422028875-9BKPQZNT7TI0QW4FI67Y/4+copyDark.png Packages https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/benefits-of-placental-consumption daily 0.75 2021-11-10 https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/general-6-1 daily 0.75 2021-11-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Placenta Encapsulation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Placenta Encapsulation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Placenta Encapsulation https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/preservation-options daily 0.75 2023-07-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Preservation Options https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Preservation Options https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Preservation Options https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/salves daily 0.75 2022-01-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1642799197842-5WLIZ74KIW5WU1RN87WF/salves1.jpeg Salves https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1642799605796-J6PUDNUDC92BGHSFVF2V/salvesherbal.jpeg Salves https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/1642800149722-BYJQ1XHVKS5LA670KFTW/AdobeStock_53873636-e1544720220825.jpeg Salves https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/prints daily 0.75 2023-07-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6189bb6b2f26965912f9b300/d9cafba2-b383-47c1-be00-ccb88dcaabe8/IMG_7678.jpeg https://www.placentapreservationcolumbus.com/legal daily 0.75 2025-05-13
