Kim Kardashian’s plans to “eat” her placenta
Curious about what placenta pills really look like?
“So I thought, why not try it?” she wrote.
Sharing the experience on her app, Kim wrote: “I’m having it freeze-dried and made into a pill form – not actually fry it like a steak and eat it (which some people do, BTW)”. Kourtney Kardashian has been taking placenta pills throughout her pregnancies, and swears by them.
“I think everyone is just being really weird and close-minded”. What do I have to lose?’
As for Kim’s health, the 35-year-old is said to be consuming her own placenta after giving birth to her son, E!News reports. “I totally recommend it for anyone considering it”, she dished.
While there are many ways to prepare and eat the placenta, both sisters have opted for the rather mild option of pill capsules.

The TV personality then shared the great results of consuming her placenta.
It was revealed earlier this year that North’s godmother is Khloe Kardashian after she joined the family in Israel in April for her baptism.
The reality star decided that after getting good results doing the same thing following North’s birth, she had to give it a second go.
She added that her goal is to drop 70 pounds to reach her ideal weight of 120 – four pounds lighter than she was at her own wedding.
Placentophagy, the practise of mammals eating the placenta after delivery, is widespread in nature, where it provides welcome nutrition for the animal while hiding signs of birth from predators. However, Kardashian mentioned breastfeeding and dietary supplements as the main reasons why she lost so many pounds in just a few days after giving birth. Kardashian opted to have her placenta encapsulated.
Fortunately, everything did, but during Kim’s delivery, doctors needed an extra 2 hours to deal with placenta issues because Kim had placenta accreta, according to TMZ.
