It is said that the placenta is the physical form of a baby's guardian angel and is a sacred being.  It is the only organ that the body grows during a time of need (pregnancy) and survives to see outside of the body. Throughout a person’s pregnancy, the placenta serves as the “Tree of Life” supporting and developing new life, serving as the fetus’ only source of food, blood, oxygen, and nutrients.

For centuries, the placenta has been consumed for its medicinal properties. In continuation of this tradition, I prepare the placenta using the Traditional Chinese Method which incorporates heat, by steaming and dehydrating the placenta to create capsules.
