Kourtney Kardashian’s latest post-partum revelation has medical experts rolling their eyes and reaching for the facepalm emojis.
The Kardashian sensation, at the ripe age of 44, decided to spill the beans on her Instagram stories about a postpartum hack that has everyone questioning if she’s been sipping on some questionable smoothies.
In a display that screams, “This is #NotAnAd, but it totally feels like one,” Kourtney flaunted her newfound love for placenta consumption. Yes, you read that right – she’s all about chomping down on her own placenta, like it’s the latest superfood trend.
Next to a picture of her Mommy Made Encapsulation pills (because apparently, turning fresh placentas into capsules is a thing), Kourtney gushed about the wonders of ingesting the afterbirth. It’s not a dinner recommendation; it’s a postpartum recovery strategy!
According to the Poosh founder, these magical placenta pills are the secret sauce to higher energy levels, a milk supply that could rival a dairy farm, hormone levels that play nice, shedding baby weight faster than you can say “Kardashian magic,” and a reduced chance of postpartum depression. If that’s not a cure-all, we don’t know what is.
Kourtney couldn’t resist a callback to the good ol’ days of “juicy placenta.” Remember that hilarious family dinner prank involving Kim and some questionable cooking? Yeah, apparently, it’s relevant now.
In a surprising twist, all Kardashian sisters – Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe – have dabbled in placenta munching before. It’s practically a family tradition at this point.
However, before you start ordering placenta pills with your morning coffee, medical experts are here to rain on the Kardashian parade. According to these party poopers, Kourtney’s claims have about as much scientific basis as a unicorn riding a rainbow.
UK general practitioner Dr. Ellie Cannon boldly declared, “No healthcare professional with any integrity would endorse these pills.” So, it seems like the only thing these pills are curing is boredom – with a side of eye-rolls from the medical community. Nice try, Kourtney, but we’ll stick to regular vitamins for now.
