All mammals do it. If you don't take your placenta the hospital will sell it to pharmaceutical companies to make cosmetics. Seems like the natural thing to do. Dehydrate it and encapsulate it.
There's a midwife here that will do it for $100.

Most of the women I know start their day with a placenta shake.

Do they add lots of vodka, tabasco and horse radish?

Yes, I notice two to three woman a day eating their placentas. I wonder how they keep them fresh, once they get home from the hospital.

I suppose they put ice in the blender along with the placentas.
