What's in Velvet Deer Antler?
Velvet
Deer antler 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. Antler
velvet contains many substances including amino acids, minerals, proteins,
anti-inflammatory peptides, hormones, gangliosides and glycosaminoglycans, and
Insulin-like Growth Factor-1. The composition of velvet supplements depend on
the diet of the deer, climate, time of year, age of stag and the various
concentrations of substances in different regions of the antler velvet itself.
Velvet Deer Antler as an Aphrodisiac
Research studies with deer antler velvet in relation to
sexual function are quite limited. A Russian study with pantocrin, an extract
from deer antler velvet, showed the extract to stimulate sexual behavior in
rodents more than ginseng. Another study showed velvet to have anti-inflammatory
properties and potentially helpful in rheumatoid arthritis. No toxic effects
have been found with deer velvet when tested in rodents. A recent study done in
Canada did not find deer antler velvet to have muscle strengthening or exercise
enhancing potential with this substance.
We are not aware of specific human studies regarding the role of deer antler
velvet supplement in
erectile
dysfunction as of September 2007 performed in the US. For more information

Since velvet deer antler products are available from many countries and regions,
one can expect variations in composition between different products. I don’t yet
have any personal experience with deer antler velvet and I don’t have any
recommendations on its use.

Velvet Deer Antler product questions
Q. I am looking for deer velvet that is
the Korean cervus Temmink. Is your Physician Formulas deer Velvet a cervus
Temmink. Also where is your antler coming from, USA, New Zealand or Canada?
A. This
deer antler velvet product is made by Planetary Formulas,
and you may wish to contact them directly.
Q. I am thinking of taking velvet elk antler supplement
and am concerned because I read that it contains or elevates estradiol or
estrogen. As I am a 59 year old male, I have no interest in elevating my
estrogen levels. Do you feel it is safe to take elk antler velvet in order to
help elevate my testosterone levels and IGF1? Is there any difference that you
know of between elk antler and deer antler?
A. One should not take a supplement based purely on changing the
levels of one or more hormones. Herbs and supplements usually effect many
physiological, hormonal, and neurotransmitters in the body, not just one or two.
It is preferable to focus on what you want to improve in your body and take an
herb or supplement that focuses on this rather than trying to micromanage
specific hormone levels. Furthermore, little research is available in humans to
determine the specific actions of these herbs on various hormone levels in the
long run. We have not studied elk antler velvet to determine how different it is
from deer antler velvet. Plus, such products from different farms and different
processing labs are likely to provide different substances within the
supplement.
Q. Are there any problems combining deer antler velvet
supplement along with herb?
A.
The combination should be fine as long as the dosages are low.
