Can men eat the placenta to enhance their sexual performance?

Perhaps everyone knows about the placenta, which is the living space of the fetus in the pregnant woman's belly. In traditional Chinese medicine, the placenta can be used as a Chinese medicine. The placenta contains vitamins, proteins, sugars, calcium and other rare elements, which is more suitable for women to eat. It can effectively treat diseases such as uterine hypoplasia and uterine myositis. So what are the effects of men eating the placenta? Can it enhance virility?

According to experts, the placenta is a traditional Chinese medicine with the scientific name "placenta". In traditional medicine, it is also called "human placenta or placenta". "Bencao Shiyi" records that it is used to treat weak qi and blood, fatigue in women, dark complexion and skin, and gradual weight loss due to various abdominal diseases.

Modern medical research believes that the placenta contains protein, sugar, calcium, vitamins, immune factors, adrenocorticotropic hormone, etc., which can promote the development of breast, uterus, vagina, testicles, and also have a promoting effect on the thyroid gland.

Clinically, placenta is used to treat gynecological diseases such as uterine hypoplasia, uterine atrophy, uterine myositis, uterine hemorrhage, etc. It is also effective for tuberculosis, bronchial asthma, anemia, etc. Grinding it into powder and taking it orally can prevent measles or relieve symptoms. It also has very significant therapeutic effects on diseases such as kidney qi deficiency, deficiency of essence and blood, impotence and spermatorrhea, backache and tinnitus, lung and kidney deficiency, shortness of breath, etc.

Placenta has a nourishing effect on some patients with weak constitutions and the elderly. It makes sense for women to take placenta and placenta preparations for beauty. Many of the male aphrodisiac and kidney-tonifying medicines also contain placenta ingredients.

However, the human body emphasizes the coordination of yin and yang. If healthy people take it inappropriately, it will not only fail to have a nourishing effect, but will cause imbalance of yin and yang in the body, interfere with normal endocrine, and cause harm to health.

What should you pay attention to when eating placenta?

In addition, experts point out that, apart from cesarean section, the placenta must be delivered through the birth canal, and it is likely to be contaminated by various bacteria during this process. Because the health of mothers varies, if the mother herself is sick, there may be a large number of pathogenic factors in the placenta, which is harmful to others.

Don't think that eating the placenta will definitely be good for your body. Blindly eating the placenta can cause illness.

In addition, there is a large amount of blood flowing in the placenta, which can easily spread some blood-borne infectious diseases without strict disinfection. Even if the placental tissue is "thoroughly" disinfected before consumption, the placenta will still contaminate transportation tools, kitchen utensils, tableware, etc. during the process from the hospital to the kitchen, and there is still the possibility of spreading blood-borne infectious diseases. Moreover, the general cooking measure is high temperature. If the duration is short, it cannot effectively kill pathogenic microorganisms, and a longer time may affect the taste of the food. Therefore, although the placenta has medicinal value, it should be processed formally under the guidance of a doctor and consumed scientifically.
