The Remarkable Healing Power of
Velvet Antler
- written by Dr. Betty Kamen
Velvet antler - not the inert
material of horns, but the rapidly growing antler of deer and elk that
completely regenerate every year. Antler has been a key element in Asian
medicine for thousands of years, and has always been consumed by human
hunters.
Only in recent centuries have we abandoned this rich
source of growth factors, cartilage building nutrients, and testosterone
precursors. Antler may be one of missing elements in the modern diet that
has allowed such a tragic loss to our collective health. Velvet antler is
now being used to address a wide range of disorders, including arthritis
and sexual dysfunction. Major constituents of velvet antler - chondroitin
sulfate and collagen type II - are even recognized by the U.S. Food and
Drug administration as effective against joint disorders. This is a rare
achievement for a nutritional supplement with its roots deep in
alternative practice.
This book is a guide to the emerging uses of this amazing
substance. It will help you understand the science, the application, and
the philosophy behind velvet antler supplementation. It presents clear
scientific and clinical results, along with some compelling anecdotes.
