I ordered the 3 bottles of maruman pig placenta yesterday. I guess pig is supposed to be closest to human? Anyhow, here was some good information from a website that does HUMAN placenta encapsulation.

How amazing is that? The idea is that you are replacing the hormones you lost during the birthing process. Many western medicines are made with horse and pig placenta!
Benefits
•Decrease in postpartum depression and baby blues
•Increase and enrich breastmilk
•Increase in energy
•Combats fatigue
•Reduce postpartum bleeding
•Decrease iron deficiency
•Decrease insomnia or sleep disorders
•Decreases postpartum "night sweats"
•Balance hormones
•Recover more quickly from childbirth
What is in the placenta that makes it such powerful medicine?
•Oxytocin known as the "love hormone". Facilitates bonding between the mother and babe. Helps shrink the uterus back to its normal size
•Gamma globulin immune booster that helps protect against postpartum infections
•Urokinase Inhibiting Factor & Factor XIII stops bleeding and encourages healing
•Thyroid Stimulating Hormone boosts energy and helps recover from stressful events
•Gonadotrophin the precursor to estrogen, progesterone and testosterone
•Interferon stimulates the immune system to protect against infection
•Cytokins Fibroblasts that trigger cell metabolism healing and replacing damaged cells/tissue
•Cortisone reduces stress and unlocks stores of energy
•Hemoglobin replenishes iron deficiency and anemia
•Prostaglandins anti-inflammatory
•Prolactin promotes lactation
•Iron essential for oxygen absorbtion in the cells
•Vitamins B6 aids in the making of antibodies
•Vitamin E for healing damaged skin cells
Growth Factors
The human placenta contains over 128 rich growth factors. A growth factor is a naturally occurring substance that stimulates cellular growth. Growth Factors signal our cells to make changes in our body, especially in the case of repairing damaged cells or replacing dead cells. The growth factors that exist in the placenta are essential for the healing process after birth. New mothers will be passing most of their body's important nutrients to their new baby through their breast milk, leaving little nutrients for themselves. By eating their placenta after birth women are able to nurture the damaged/developing uterine, vaginal, and breast tissues.
