Abstract: Placental extract has been attracting attention as a functional food. In this review, I specifically described the effects of porcine placenta extract on beauty, menopausal symptom, Late-Onset Hypogonadism syndrome (LOH syndrome), shoulder stiffness, knee pain, cognition and osteoporosis. The excellent actions of porcine placental extract are considered to bring light to men as well as middle-aged women.
