Postpartum is forever & Postpartum Depression effects entire families.

Postpartum fatigue effects up to 70% of women and:

  • Contributes to poor health, irritability and inability to concentrate.
  • Is linked to iron deficiency, anemia, inflammation and thyroid dysfunction.

Iron deficiency effects more than 50% of women of reproductive age and has a negative impact on:

  • Mother baby interactions.
  • Your ability to handle stress.
  • Energy levels, fitness ability, endurance capacity and cognition.
  • Baby’s brain and behavioral function long after the period of iron deficiency. Baby’s brain function is fundamentally altered.

Significant risk factors in developing Postpartum Depression are:

  • Fatigue.
  • Anemia.
  • Iron deficiency.
  • Birth interventions.
  • Thyroid dysfunction.
  • High body mass index.
  • Low levels of hormones.
  • Personal or family history of depression.

After birth, due to the sharp drop in:

  • Iron,
  • Blood,
  • Nutrients, and
  • Hormones...

It’s totally normal to feel:

  • Pain,
  • Sadness,
  • Stress,
  • Fatigue,
  • Depressed,
  • Sleep deprived,
  • Unbalanced, unsure and
  • Nervous about breastfeeding.

You have one chance at this life-changing experience to give your baby the best start. Your placenta can be the solution!

Why does it work?

  • Studies show that the placenta is full of bioavailable Iron, nutrients, and hormones.
  • Iron is necessary for energy and brain function.

Research shows that Iron Therapy significantly improves:

  • Fatigue levels, stress, and symptoms of depression.
  • Fitness levels, oxygen intake, and respiratory function.
  • Mood, apathy, ability to concentrate, and work efficiency.

Nutrients that replenish bodily stores for a healthy functioning of mother and baby are:

  • Calcium, Copper, Fiber, Magnesium, Manganese, Phosphorus, Potassium, Protein, Vitamin B6, and Zinc.

Hormones in the placenta can help you feel balanced and emotionally well.

Research shows that:

  • Prolactin - supports lactation.
  • Prostaglandins – reduce postnatal bleeding and promote healing.
  • Thyroid-stimulating hormone – stimulates the metabolism of almost every tissue in the body.
  • Placental opioid-enhancing factor – relieves pain and promotes maternal caretaking behaviors.
  • Estrogen, Progesterone and Corticotropin-releasing hormones – significantly reduce symptoms of depression.
  • Oxytocin – is the love releasing hormone, relieves pain and supports breastfeeding and mother-baby bonding.

All of these nutrients are found in the Placenta!

  • Supplies high levels of pain relief by stimulating your body's own opioids and endorphins.
