CDC Forced To Tell Americans STOP EATING YOUR PLACENTAS! EWWWWW!

In today's rant…Stop eating your placentas people! What the fuck in all fucks are you doing? What are you a cow? A horse? A goat? Do they do that? I think they do.

So if you haven't caught on to this latest crazy fad, moms are eating their own placentas after birth. Uh huh…ya…sounds yummy right?

"But the Kardashian sisters & January Jones have done it?!" Oh well then, by all means take your health advice from them.

  • A new father made a placenta taco, according to The Guardian, and Amazon sells a book titled, “25 Placenta Recipes – Easy and Delicious Recipes for Cooking with Placenta!”*

  • Several companies also make placenta pills at the request of a mother by cleaning and dehydrating it before grinding it into pill capsules, according to IFL Science.*

Well, it's been touted as having substantial health benefits but the CDC & the NIH says there's no evidence suggesting that it does benefit you. So just in case you actually thought of doing it…I would err on the side of hell to tha fuck naa!

My wife actually did the freeze-dried pill method. The hormones act as an anti-depressant. It works.

Interesting, do you happen to know how/why the hormones act as an anti-depressant?

I don't know how it works. I would guess the placenta releases happy hormones as some sort of evolutionary survival mechanism to help propagate the species by encouraging motherhood. This could also explain postpartum depression, as the sudden removal of the source of said happy hormones accounts for a sudden drop in mood. It could be a placebo effect too, but I doubt it. We have two kids, and the difference in my wife's mood and productivity was definitely noticeably better with the placenta pills.

Really?! That is something...hey if it works for her great. We don't have any studies that say otherwise though. The only studies they have are not conclusive.

at least the pill is the least nasty way to go, but it's my opinion that it would be more of a placebo effect than anything else, but without definitive science no one can know for sure

I mean theoretically I can get where the proponents are coming from but that's just nasty. I can't believe there is a friggin COOKBOOK!

In the immortal words of George Carlin: "Half of you are gonna go home and go down on each other tonight, so let's not pretend like anything I said up here was disgusting."

Me neither...I was absolutely shocked!

unfortunately as nasty as it is I can totally see someone thinking hmmm I should write a placenta cookbook

"...Add some fresh cracked black pepper, a pinch of salt, and finish it all off with some sweet sweet placenta powder!"
