What are the functions of placenta powder?

Having a baby is a surprise for every mother. Many mothers have made a lot of preparations to welcome the arrival of the baby, but plans cannot keep up with changes. In the process of having a baby, there will always be situations of one kind or another. The main function of placenta powder is to kill some bacteria in the mother's placenta. Of course, its functions are not limited to these. Let us understand the role of placenta powder together.

Since the placenta will inevitably be infected with bacteria to a certain extent during the delivery process of pregnant women, it must undergo strict disinfection to effectively kill pathogenic microorganisms. In addition, people with ulcers or other wounds in the digestive system must be cautious when consuming placenta powder, because the placenta contains blood and may carry pathogens from the pregnant woman's body, making it easy to get infected. In addition, don't be overly superstitious about the nourishing and nutritional value of placenta powder. The nutrients contained in the human placenta are similar to those in some animal placentas. Moreover, although the placenta is rich in immunoglobulins, it cannot be directly digested, absorbed and utilized after being ingested by humans. Instead, it is digested and broken down into amino acids that do not have disease-fighting immune effects and cannot directly enhance the body's immunity.

Generally speaking, people who use placenta powder for health preservation can take 5 to 10 grams of placenta powder daily and take it in 2 to 3 times. However, different diseases have different requirements for the amount of placenta powder to be taken at one time.

For example, patients with bronchial asthma can take 500 grams of placenta, 200 grams of gecko powder, 150 grams each of platycodon and tangerine peel, grind them into fine powder, take 1 gram each time, twice a day. It is most effective when taken on an empty stomach.

For people with mild diabetes, they can take 1 placenta and 500 grams of Chinese yam. Dry, grind into fine powder and mix evenly. Take 15 grams three times a day.

Patients with anemia can take 30 grams of placenta, 10 dates, and 15 grams of wolfberry, grind them into powder together, put them into capsules and take them, 2 to 4 grams each time, 3 times a day. It has the effect of tonifying the kidney and essence, replenishing qi and nourishing blood. It is used for symptoms such as kidney deficiency, deficiency of essence and blood, impotence and spermatorrhea, low back pain and tinnitus, deficiency of both lung and kidney, shortness of breath, deficiency of qi and blood, weight loss, lack of appetite, fatigue, and low milk supply after childbirth.

Modern medical experiments have found that placenta contains a variety of antibodies, interferons, enzymes, erythropoietin, phospholipids and polysaccharides. It has immune effects and can enhance the body's resistance; it can promote the development of breast, uterus, vagina, ovaries, and testicles. It also has anti-allergic effects. In addition, placenta also contains progesterone, steroid hormones, etc., which can promote the development of breast, uterus, vagina, and testicles, and also have a promoting effect on the thyroid gland. It is effective in treating tuberculosis, bronchial asthma, anemia, etc. Grinding placenta into powder and taking it orally can prevent measles or alleviate symptoms.

From this we can see that placenta powder has many functions. In life, many pregnant women consume placenta powder for recuperation. This is not a bad thing, but you must pay attention to the dosage, especially for the special group of pregnant women. Although placenta powder has great functions, it does not mean that it has no side effects. In fact, it has many side effects. Therefore, people should carefully understand it when consuming it.
