My Storm

MOMS would you consider eating your own placenta? Would you do it if your placenta was made into chocolate?!

So if you have ever given birth you know in great detail what your placenta is. 
Everyone also knows that animals eat their placenta for nutrients, and protection against other animals. 
Would you ever consider encapsulating or making your placenta into chocolate? 
There has been a lot of positive and negative remarks towards this practice, some saying its cannibalism. 
What are some of the actual scientific facts we know about consuming our own placenta? 
Some say it helps with postpartum depression, and Kiley Witworth says that after consuming some of her placenta laced chocolates her breast milk production has tripled!  

I myself have three beautiful children, and the thought of consuming a part of my body has me feeling all sorts of different emotions about it.
 Grossed out, and never even wanting to see a steak again in my life is my first emotion, but then on the other hand I am fascinated. 

Below is a link to her story, with a video and pictures of the process. In another one of her posts she states that she took her placenta home in a cooler and hired a professional to make them for her. The cost was around $200.
