    In terms of structure and tissues, placenta’s approximately the same as liver, right? Seems like this is just a fancy (and overpriced) way to talk people into eating liver again, with likely many of the same the health benefits and risks.

    MMM I LOVE EAT PLACENTAS YUMMMIIIIY

    But a significant proportion of people have reported health benefits from the drink – one study showed marked improvements for as many as eighty placenta them.

    (N.b. – First half of sentence unsubstantiated and just a cheap setup for someone else’s cheap punchline)
