In the bingo game that is Mayor Carolyn Goodman’s annual State of the City address, there are a few spots you can daub before play begins. She’s certain to talk longer than her appointed hour; to spend at least five to eight minutes insisting that she’s going to run long; and to invoke The Oscar. (As in, “My husband always says ‘This is the best job in the world,’” or something along those lines.) But Goodman’s 2018 address took some unexpected turns—a reflection of a city experiencing a period of explosive growth to rival the Downtown Project land rush of several years back.

I’m not going to tell you what to do with your baby’s placenta after birth. If the doctor lets you have it, and you would like to encapsulate it, sauté it, or even ink it to make placenta prints, that is your decision to make. But you should at least know whether scientists have found any health benefits to consuming it.

As science teaches us, the human placenta is the organ responsible for metabolic exchanges between the mother and the fetus. It consists of a maternal part, or Basal Decidua, which develops from the maternal tissue, and from a fetal part, ie the corion frondosum that develops from the same blastocyst that forms the fetus.
Consuming the placenta (in pill form) after childbirth has been an increasingly popular trend in countries such as the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia and the United States. But a study by the University of Navada, Las Vegas, (UNLV) suggested it does not have as many health benefits as expected.
A new study conducted at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas shows that the intake of placenta capsules, popular among celebrities, has little or no effect on postpartum mood, maternal bonding or fatigue.
He had supported him strongly since the first delivery, but now a new study conducted at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas shows that eating his placenta is not good, as Kim Kardashian wanted to make believe.
Some say it would give a lot of energy and others who think it would be a possible cure for post-partum depression .
