How Is Placenta Encapsulation Performed?

Every Pluscenta placenta capsule is made in a certified lab using a standardized, multi-step process — not in a home kitchen. From the moment your placenta arrives, it moves through medical-grade disinfection, gentle steaming, controlled dehydration, fine grinding, and encapsulation into vegan, plant-based capsules. Here's exactly what happens at each step.

Step by step

Our lab process, step by step

01

Collection & cold-chain intake

After birth, your placenta is collected with the sterile materials in your kit and shipped overnight in cold-chain packaging via UPS Healthcare. On arrival it's logged in a tamper-evident container and handled individually, so there's no contact between one client's placenta and another's.

02

Drainage

Excess blood is drained from the placenta using a hospital-grade single-use drainage bag, which reduces contamination before processing begins.

03

Medical-grade disinfection

The placenta goes through a medical-grade disinfection cycle designed to reduce bacteria and pathogens while preserving the tissue in its natural form. This is the controlled, standardized step a home process can't reliably replicate.

04

Gentle steaming

The placenta is steamed using a controlled, traditional method — a step drawn from long-standing practice — to prepare it for dehydration while keeping temperatures consistent.

05

Controlled dehydration

It's then dehydrated in a medical-grade dehydrator under precise temperature control. Slow, even drying removes moisture while preserving the placenta's natural composition.

06

Powdering & encapsulation

Once dried, the placenta is ground into a fine, consistent powder and sealed into vegan HPMC (plant-based) capsules with natural coloring. Your capsules contain only your own placenta — no chemical additives, preservatives, or fillers.

07

Final inspection & return shipping

Every batch is visually checked and weighed for consistency, then shipped back to your door ready to take. The exact number of capsules depends on the size of your placenta.

Why a lab process matters

The difference between a clean, consistent capsule and an unpredictable one comes down to where and how it's made. A certified lab standardizes the three things a home kitchen can't guarantee: validated disinfection, controlled dehydration temperatures, and one-placenta-at-a-time handling that rules out cross-contamination. That's why Pluscenta is built around a lab — not a countertop.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How Is Placenta Encapsulation Performed?

Placenta capsules are made by processing the placenta into capsules: it's disinfected, gently steamed, dehydrated under controlled temperatures, ground into a fine powder, and sealed into capsules. At Pluscenta, every step happens in a certified lab using a standardized, multi-step method — not a home kitchen — so the result is clean and consistent.

What are Pluscenta placenta capsules made of?

The capsules contain only your own placenta, processed through our lab method, sealed into vegan HPMC (plant-based) capsule shells with natural coloring. No chemical additives, preservatives, or fillers are introduced during processing.

How many capsules will I receive?

The exact number varies because it depends on the size of your placenta — a larger placenta yields more powder and more capsules.

Is the process safe?

Yes — when it's done in a certified lab with proper disinfection, temperature control, and individual handling, which is exactly how Pluscenta operates. Learn more on our placenta encapsulation safety page.
