Elk Antler Pills For Humans And Pets

By Catherine Cole


Another chapter from the wise pages of ancient Eastern medicine has reached the eyes, ears, and minds of Western people. As if we do not owe them a debt of gratitude for shark cartilage, coconut oil, and seaweed wraps; now we are learning how both humans and their pets can reap health benefits from elk antler pills, especially as we grow older.

A pill made from the velvet antlers of elks has, for thousands of years, been used as a supplement to restore vitality and a healthy immune system in human beings. In addition, it is excellent for promoting health of joints and muscles in both people and their animal companions. Anyone who has seen their pet struggle to stand up due to stiffness and pain will be grateful to see their furry friend feeling fit after a week of supplementation.

In fact, this product contains collagen, glucosamine, insulin as well as epidermal growth factors, and other minerals that aid in lubrication of joints, muscle growth and repair, and wound healing. Many of these minerals are missing in most foods due to over-cultivation of land. This deficiency impacts humans and their pets alike.

Much of the osteoarthritis that we begin to suffer in our forties and fifties can be eliminated with this product. It also helps us heal our muscles, which is important for anyone who lifts weights or engages in other vigorous exercise. It allows our pets to stay nimble and playful right up until their time comes, and theoretically it just might do the same for us.

From birth to death, these stags are cared for as if they are pets; both by their herders in the East and their Veterinarians in the West. At the age of two they can begin to harvest their velvet-coated rack each year. The process of harvesting causes the animal no distress whatsoever, and in fact, they would lose their entire rack by rutting season each year anyway.

Fortunately for these lovely beasts, their antlers are the fastest-growing structure on or in their young bodies. They grow a whole new set each year, complete with the soft velvet coating we humans find so valuable. They experience absolutely no pain or injury during this process, for these velvety antlers would be shed on their own every year anyway.

By the age of 15 the antlers are no longer creating the velvety coating, as this represents their entrance into old age. Once they are no longer of rutting age, a hormonal change occurs once again, and they are then put out to pasture. This is meant quite literally, as most of these animals are released into the wild where they live and die, as natural selection permits.

However, their meat is quite tasty, and they are an animal sought out by many hunters. Stags who have been raised for their antlers can provide a healthy, nutritious, and totally organic meat source for whomever the animal is made available. In some communities, they are brought to slaughter and either sold or their meat is donated to food banks or other charity kitchens.
