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.

These sages have been scraping the velvet antlers for more than a thousand years. As with many ancient remedies, it was steeped into teas to aid the herders by maintaining a healthy immune system all year long. In addition, it was said to help keep them from suffering stiffness in their joints caused by cold and moisture, as herders spend much of their lives exposed to the elements.

This velvet has been shown to contain everything from collagen for the skin to chondroitin for joint health, and other minerals as well. Many of the minerals it contains are in low supply in most foods due to irresponsible farming practices we humans are so guilty of. Many of the ailments of middle age, for humans and animals alike, are related to mineral deficiencies.

The health benefits of this product cannot be understated, especially for people and animals entering mid-life. This is the period where many of us experience bodily pain due to muscle wasting and arthritis, and this supplement can help us repair our bodies as if we were much younger. In fact, the stags themselves agree, as they are often seen in the wild eating the velvet from their own antlers.

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.

It is not unheard of for a family to purchase these stags and have them harvested for their meat and skin once they reach this mature age. This meat is certainly organic, clean, healthy, and non-GMO. Hunters also prize the meat of these cherished beasts, and they are actually a favorite among those who prefer to hunt with an old-style bow and arrow.
