Sara Pereira is a pre and post-natal massage therapist and a licensed placenta encapsulation specialist.  She dehydrates the placenta and pulverizes it into capsules.  There is no data or research behind ingesting the placenta, but it's practiced widely in Asian cultures.

Good Food contributor Eddie Lin cooked and ate his wife's placenta.  Read his story here.
