According to SAEDNEWS, some claim that the human placenta has many benefits for the mother, but researchers have not yet found any scientific evidence to prove this. However, some celebrity mothers decided to eat their baby’s placenta after childbirth and shared their experiences with the public. Some of them consumed it in capsule form, while others used smoothies, and even described its taste as delicious.
Below are some famous women who decided to eat their placenta after giving birth:
Mayim Bialik
Mayim Bialik, star of The Big Bang Theory, defended women who choose to eat their placenta in a written note. She wrote: “I ate my placenta. I am not a bad person, nor am I crazy.” She continued: “Humans are the only mammals that sometimes choose to eat their placenta. Placenta eating is beneficial for mammals, and we evolved for this purpose.”
Bialik, who has two children, described the taste of her placenta as “delicious.”
Kourtney Kardashian
Kourtney Kardashian has three children, but she only decided to eat her placenta after the birth of her third child—and apparently enjoyed the experience. She posted a photo of placenta capsules on Instagram and wrote: “I get sad when my placenta pills run out. They are life-changing!”
Katherine Heigl
Katherine Heigl, who has two adopted children and one biological child, revealed after the birth of her son that she sent her placenta to a specialized center to have it turned into capsules.
Nikki Reed
Actress Nikki Reed, who has a son with her husband Ian Somerhalder, once posted a photo on Instagram showing a jar of placenta pills. She wrote that she was sad her pills were running out and added: “Last days of my placenta pills. Not ready to say goodbye!”
Chrissy Teigen
After giving birth to her daughter, Chrissy Teigen suffered from postpartum depression. For this reason, she decided to try placenta eating after the birth of her second child to prevent it from happening again. She even joked: “I’m in Los Angeles. It’s very normal here. They grill the placenta. You can even try some of mine after eating yours.”
Hilary Duff
Hilary Duff has three children. She revealed that after the birth of her second child, she consumed her placenta in a smoothie. She described the experience as “the most refreshing smoothie she had ever had.” She said: “I hadn’t had such a refreshing smoothie since I was 10 years old. It was full of calories, fruits, and extracts, and it was very tasty.”
Camila Alves
Camila Alves, Matthew McConaughey’s wife, instead of consuming the placenta as pills or drinks, decided to use it differently. The couple used their baby’s placenta as fertilizer to plant a mango tree.
McConaughey said: “That mango tree gave its first fruit nine years later, and the whole family gathered to eat it together and celebrate our eldest son. We told him: ‘Well done, you helped make this tree fruitful.’”
The placenta is an organ that forms only during pregnancy in the lining of the uterus and is expelled after childbirth. It is responsible for supporting, nourishing, and enabling fetal growth. This important organ connects the mother and fetus. It delivers nutrients and oxygen through the umbilical cord and removes waste from the fetus.
Some believe that eating the placenta can increase milk production, reduce postpartum depression, and improve sleep, but no scientific evidence has confirmed these claims so far.
