Fundamental Health Facts About Deer Antler Velvet Supplements

By Patrick Smith


All species of deer contain antlers. These are bone like protrusions, usually an extension of their skulls, that grow throughout the lifetime of the animal. Since they can grow back after being cut or removed, they are not classified as bones. In these structures, there is a semisolid substance, velvet, that is harvested and used in the manufacture of Deer Antler Velvet Supplements.

The extracted velvet contains various chemicals necessary for the growth of cells and bones. These include, magnesium, zinc, calcium, amino acids, anti-inflammatory substances and Prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are amino acids that regulate the functions of the endocrine system, regulates blood pressure, inflammation, cell growth. Further, prostaglandins regulate nervous functioning to a certain extent. Therefore, without these critical amino acids, the musculoskeletal structure could be very deficient.

During the years leading to the twenty first century, some Soviet scientists decided to undertake a scientific research with an aim of determining the effect that the velvet supplements had on athletes who consumed them. Their findings left many eyebrows raised and jaws dropped, because the professional athletes whimed into bodies of infinite stamina and power. That enabled them break records during the Olympic games against other athletes representing rival nations.

Experts say that the AGF1 in the velvet is the substance responsible for the growth of antlers. However, the effects after a while of supplementation are widely varied from person to person. In some, it enhances joint strength, whereas in others, it brings no evident changes.

Insulin-like Growth Activity, is a hormone with a similar molecular structure as insulin, and plays a critical role in the growth and development in children, yet it continues to have an impact in adults too. When the Human Growth Hormone is stimulated, it catalyzes the production of the AGF1 in the liver, which is critical for healthy bones, for it stimulates the development and multiplication of cells in bones.

A good number of people have asked a lot of question pertaining the symptoms and signs in people who are deficient of the substances provided by the supplements. These products have no known nutritional value, and are not essential for you daily nutritional needs. Further, there have not been any known signs to project deficiency, though an adult can benefit from its consumption as discussed above.

Unlike what many people have been compelled to believe, their consumption has no side effects, though it may cause allergic reactions to other people, although such cases are rare.

Harvesting the extract from deer antlers has become a matter of concern due to the impact it has on the population of the animal, and the agony through which the deer goes through. The process is normally every painful, and involves a lot of blood because the antlers contain numerous veins and blood capillaries.
