What’s in Deer Antler Velvet?
Deer antler velvet is named after the soft, velvet-like covering that deer antlers
have before they turn bony. Antlers are organs of bone which regenerate each year from the heads of male deer. In addition to bone, support tissues such as nerves also regenerate. Nerves grow up to 1 cm each day, the fastest growing biologically active tissue known to science. Deer antler velvet contains many substances including amino acids, minerals, proteins, anti-inflammatory peptides, hormones, gangliosides and glycosaminoglycans, and Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (which is known to be the master regulator responsible for body size – NHGRI.) It represents the only renewable form of cartilage, accounting for its signficant effects on bone and cartilage health and renewal. It is loaded with beneficial collagen, prostoglandin, phospholipids, proteoglycans, minerals, fatty acids and steroids. It is also rich with both chondroitin sulphate and glucosamine sulphate.
The Chinese have long believed that Antler Velvet is a “wonder drug.” A 2,000-year-old scroll discovered in a tomb in Hunan Province, China, listed dozens of different diseases that could be treated with deer velvet. The 16th century “Materia Medica,” a standard text of Chinese herbalists, lists deer velvet as one of the most highly prized natural medicinal substances.
Furthermore, research by Dr Andrezj Bartke and the BioMarker Foundation into life-span factors, while studying long-lived Ames dwarf mice, found that the Insulin Growth Factor genetic pathways are directly involved in confering longevity by increasing resistance to stress, enhancing immune function, and altering programmed aging. Nathan Sutter of the National Human Genome Research Institute, one of the National Institutes of Health, states, “IGF1 is amazing. It pops up all over the place… for example, it can account for different risks in a person getting prostate cancer.”
Evidence is proving the Chinese were right about Antler Velvet, and is a powerful modern synthesis of this ancient and life-giving formulation.
What is meant by “growth”?
Growth requires many, many co-ordinated processes in the body, and that in turn means a complex dance of lots of different hormones, which typically are the messengers that tell different parts of the body what to do and when. Growth hormones are the power behind muscle growth. They stimulate both the differentiation and proliferation of muscle cells, amino acid uptake and the synthesis of protein in muscle and other tissues. This is where IGF-Plus’ profound ability to influence overall muscle growth comes from.
Growth but so much more! You have to try it to experience the amazing effects. In so many areas.
- Enhances strength, endurance and athletic performance
- Has a positive impact on diseases, like stomach and lung conditions or even high cholesterol and high blood sugar (thins the blood)
- Reinvigorates and supports female and male sexual organs to restore potency and pleasure
- Works to eliminate extra body fat, especially in the abdomen and legs
- Improves skin texture and elasticity
- Help you sleep better
- Improve immune and heart function, and healing time
- Improve brain function, memory and mental focus
- Profound anti-aging qualities
- Arthritis and joint relief and repair
- Protects against future injury and deterioration
These are all a lot of claims, we admit. But clinical tests (and we have hundreds of researched studies) have shown these very effects in adults ranging in age from 20 to 90. Not just a superior muscle growth and performance enhancer, This is remarkably helpful for a whole category of health benefits and assists with many and varied complaints.
Our formula uses New Zealand pure deer antler velvet, which is the highest purity and quality available on the market, and is consequently subject to quota restrictions (which also makes it hard to keep in stock, especially given its remarkable success.) The amazing re-order rate of this product is further proof of its efficacy. Try it for a minimum of 2-3 weeks to see its full effects.
In general, it is used to restore, balance and strengthen the body, support joint function, increase muscle growth and testosterone levels, facilitate athletic performance, sexual performance, and cultivate an overall feeling of well-being. It has amazing beneficial effects for both men and women. And our new extraction process has increased the growth factor percentage by 300% for an even more effective formula.
