Kim Kardashian is all about keeping up with the trends and has taken many liberties in the name of staying young and beautiful.

From acupuncture needles in her face to a vampire facial, this time the 32-year-old reality star said she’s interested in eating her placenta.

“Don’t you think it makes you look younger?” she asked her doctor on the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” season 8 premiere. “I really want to do it.”

Following stars like January Jones and Holly Madison, who also ate their placenta, Kardashian wants in on the after-birth practice that’s becoming increasingly more common.

The reality star is proving just how far she’ll go to keep that youthful glow. The practice also reportedly helps with fighting postpartum depression and increasing milk production.

In her final phase of pregnancy, Kardashian also revealed that she’s having a baby girl with boyfriend Kanye West.

“I’m so excited I’m having a girl,” she said. “I know that’s really what Kanye wants — he wanted a little girl.”

Kardashian shared the good news at her “garden brunch” star-studded baby shower with celebs like Melanie Brown, Kelly Osbourne, Nicole Richie, Nene Leaks and Maria Menounos in attendance.
