An option for how and when to take capsules is one capsule in the morning. If a few hours later you feel weepy or low energy, take another capsule. This may be repeated one more time - a total of three capsules in one day. It is not suggested to take these capsules in the evening as they may keep affect sleep.
The first two weeks are the most important time to be taking the capsules. You may continue to take one-three capsules per day until they are gone. We encourage you to follow your body’s cues and adjust the dosage accordingly.
When To Not Take Placenta Medicine:
Placenta should not be taken if the body is fighting off a common cold, flu, or infection, or if you have chills, fever, sneezing, aches, flushed cheeks, dificulty sleeping, hot palms and feet or night sweats. If you get a breast infection (mastitis), the capsules should not be taken. If any of these should occur, stop taking the capsules until it has cleared the body.
Storage:
Placenta capsules should be stored in the refrigerator while being used. It is best if an absorbant pack is placed in the jar of capsules.
For long-term use, store any remaining capsules in the freezer for up to a year.
Other Details:
The first stage of the encapsulation process takes rougly two hours of preparing the placenta and beginning the dehydration process. The second stage (either the next day or ~5 hours later) takes roughly two hours and involves turning the placenta into powder and encapsulating.
The placenta is carefully prepared and dehydrated at a low heat until dry. Then it is ground into a powder and encapsulated. Each placenta is different in size and substance so the amount of capsules it makes can vary from 90 to 175.
