I did not have my placenta encapsulated after the birth of my first child. I noticed a lot of differences after getting it done this time around. My energy level was higher despite now having two kids. I am convinced it has helped my milk supply this time around. Last time I had issues with low milk supply and mastitis and this time I have had none, praise God!

What are the benefits of Placenta Encapsulation?
The placenta contains nutrients and hormones that may help support recovery and boost overall well-being. This practice is rooted in generations of traditional Chinese medicine, where the placenta is regarded as a form of medicine that helps replenish the body and ease the transition into postpartum life. Many mothers who choose encapsulation report:
Decreased postpartum mood swings
Reduced postpartum depression
Increased oxytocin levels which not only aids in lifting mood but also helps the uterus return to its pre-pregnancy size.
Improved iron levels during recovery
Enhanced milk supply
Increased energy
Balanced hormone levels
It is important to note that there is little scientific evidence on placenta encapsulation. Most of these benefits are learned through mothers who have followed the process and have experienced the benefits for themselves.
The Tree of Life: The Power of the Placenta
What is a placenta, really?
For More Frequently Asked Questions
The Placenta is often referred to as the "Tree of Life" because of both the way it looks and the function it performs for bringing life into the world. The blood vessels in the placenta branching towards the umbilical cord from mama to baby support the life she bears with her own blood force; like a root system of a tree, she makes life sustainable through the constant flow of blood to her baby.
A placenta is the organ which develops during pregnancy to support the life of a growing baby.
A good placenta is determined by both the health of the mother and the father!
What makes a good placenta?
By choosing to encapsulate the placenta, mothers can empower themselves with natural support during the crucial postpartum period, making this practice a topic of growing interest among those exploring holistic approaches to maternal health. Ultimately, the decision can be a personal one, blending both cultural traditions and contemporary health practices.
Most mammals in the wild consume their placenta upon giving birth.
Encapsulating your placenta gives you, the mother, the opportunity to take advantage of the 'homegrown,' nutrient dense organ which your body created to sustain life within you.

Customer Reviews
Hear from our satisfied mothers about their experience with Nurture Naturals placenta encapsulation services in Janesville, Wisconsin.
I knew the benefits of placenta encapsulation through my own research, so when Molly told us she could do it for us, it was a no-brainer. (Highly recommend listening to the Birthing Instincts podcast episode on this!) It couldn’t have been easier, since Molly was already there for my birth. She took my placenta home with her to dehydrate and encapsulate, and she returned to our house two days later with the capsules stored in cute glass jars. Such a beautiful, intimate, full-circle experience.
LOVE that Molly is offering this service for mommas!! She is such a beautiful person to work with. She was able to encapsulate my placenta quickly! I love having this option to be able to give back amazing nutrients for my son through my breastmilk. Also provided the capsules in beautiful glass containers!! ABSOLUTELY WORTH DOING!! Molly is the best person to go to for this service!!
