Kourtney Kardashian ate the placenta of his son Rocky and as she describes his experience… we even felt like it. This practice is not new in the Kardashian clan, since all of them have done it, and although for many it seems strange and even disgusting, the socialite explained the benefits that she can leave. The famous woman who recently gave birth to her son with Travis highlighted that ingesting his “juicy placenta” has been one of the best decisions in her life, as it has helped her a lot.
Kourtney shared a photo with Mommy-made encapsulation supplements on an Instagram story with the following message: “This is not an advertisement. I just wanted to share something that I found very helpful for postpartum recovery.” According to the businesswoman, since she began taking the capsules with her son Rocky’s placenta, she began to feel more energy, her hormone levels were balanced, and her milk supply increased, they helped reduce the possibility of postpartum depression and lose pregnancy weight faster.
In conclusion, she highlighted, that they are perfect for a “better and faster recovery after having the baby,” so she did not hesitate to recommend them to women who have just become mothers, like her. Kourtney described this “remedy” as a “juicy placenta,” but there is a subtext to all of this. It turns out that she once joked with her sister Kim that they cooked placenta and served it as part of dinner, something that can be seen in season 8 of the reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
“Kim and I decided to marinate some juicy placenta, cook it, and serve it to everyone for dinner,” Kourtney said.
But Are There Benefits to Eating Placenta?
Although animals do it to obtain certain nutrients, it is not proven by science that the same thing happens in humans; However, many women who have dared to do so claim that their recovery after giving birth has been faster and, as Kardashian said, their energy increases. The most famous clan on TV have not been the only ones to do it, there are other famous people like Hilary Duff, Alicia Silverstone, Mayim Bialik, Katherine Heigl, and Chrissy Teigen, who did it and had a very similar experience.
Would You Dare to Do It?
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis welcome their first child on November 1, the celebrity welcomed her and Travis’s son, whom they named Rocky. After some complications in her pregnancy, her baby was born safely. Let us remember that for this same reason, in September, she underwent fetal surgery to save her baby, which is why the drummer canceled a presentation she had with Blink-182 in Europe.
“I am eternally grateful to my husband who ran to my side during the tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for helping me with this,” Kourtney wrote on that occasion.
Kourtney is the mother of three children, whom she had with her ex-partner Scott Disic: Mason, 13 years old; Reign, 8; and her daughter Penelope, 11. All of them were “normal” pregnancies, so she was worried about what could happen to her baby.
“I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear,” the reality star said. “I have a whole new understanding and respect for moms who have had to fight for their babies during pregnancy.”
Fortunately, the family is fine and Rocky is in her arms. Congratulations on that…
