Kim Kardashian recommends mothers eat their placentas. The reality star credits it with making her feel “really healthy and good.”
In a new post on her website, Kardashian admits, “I’m really not this holistic person or someone who would have ever considered eating my placenta,” but she’s done it and feels better as a result. The reality star is clear about what exactly the process entails.
“And when I say ‘eat my placenta,’ I mean that 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),” she writes. Kardashian toyed with the idea of taking placenta pills when she was carrying North, as Gossip Cop reported at the time, and she went on to have a successful experience with it.
She now explains, “I heard so many stories when I was pregnant with North of moms who never ate their placenta with their first baby and then had postpartum depression, but then when they took the pills with their second baby, they did not suffer from depression!”
The mom two of continues, “So I thought, why not try it? What do I have to lose? I really didn’t want the baby blues and thought I can’t go wrong with taking a pill made of my own hormones — made by me, for me. I started researching and read about so many moms who felt this same way and said the overall healing process was so much easier.”
“I had great results and felt so energized and didn’t have any signs of depression. I definitely had to do it again,” shares Kardashian. “Every time I take a pill, I feel a surge of energy and feel really healthy and good. I totally recommend it for anyone considering it!”
Back in September, Gossip Cop exclusively debunked a false HollywoodLife claim about Kardashian supposedly planning to “make anti-aging cream out of her placenta.” With the star’s blog post now about using placenta pills, clearly we were right.
