These are just some of the many health benefits obtained from using Deer Antler Velvet. Asian medicine has used Deer Antler Velvet for about 2,000 years. It was highly valued and believed to harmonize the Yin and Yang in the body (emotional, physical and spiritual well-being). It was often used to assist with tissue repair, to strengthen muscle and bone, and help promote blood flow throughout the body and aid in healing (Jette, 2004).
The important thing to remember, is that we can only unleash these factors if we consume it in liquid form from a supplier that doesn't cut corners or sell knockoffs. That's why we maintain 100% purity in our liquid extract and monitor the process from birth to bottle.
