Ancient Chinese Tradition Meets Modern Science
“Zi he che,” or prepared dried placenta, has been used as a post partum tonic for thousands of years in Chinese Medicine. As an herbalist, I prepare each placenta according to the ancient Chinese tradition. The placenta is steamed with herbs, drained, dehydrated, and encapsulated. I employ my extensive training in placentaphagy to fully examine and prepare each placenta in a surgically clean and dedicated environment.
Why Encapsulate?
Benefits of Placenta Encapsulation include
Decreases “baby blues” and postpartum depression
Increases and enriches breastmilk production

Is iron-rich, lowering chances of depression and iron deficiency
Can improve sleep
Replenishes nutrients lost during childbirth
