Growth Factors in Velvet Antler
Anti-Aging
Human Growth Hormone, or HGH, (also known as somatropin), is produced by
the pituitary gland. HGH, and a full profile of growth hormone factors (such as IGF
I&II) are essential for growth and regeneration of cells and tissue. Specialists in
anti-aging medicine have tagged HGH and related growth hormone factors as found in
Velvet
Antler as the "Fountain of Youth".
The body's production of HGH is very high during childhood and adolescence.
Unfortunately, after age 20 the release of HGH by the pituitary gland falls at a
rate of approximately 14% every 10 years. By age 60, a loss of 75% or more of HGH is not
uncommon. The physical symptoms such as wrinkles, increased body fat, loss of muscle mass,
loss of energy and other signs that normally accompanies aging is directly related to this
decrease in the production of HGH.
Growth hormones have an anabolic effect. They cause tissue to grow, and
cause stored energy (fat or sugar) to be consumed. Insulin, the hormone released by the
pancreas to help metabolize sugar, is anabolic, making it possible to build new
tissue. Growth factors are required to control and stimulate the fast growth of the
antler. The presence of multiple growth factors in the growing velvet is important for
antler regulation. It is also important for humans. It is best for the body to produce its
own growth hormones, and the best supplementation strategy is to provide the system with
the precursors or raw materials so that the body wisdom can keep things in check. Velvet
Antler contains these factors, that is why Velvet Antler is proving to be such an
important unrefined and natural anti-aging supplement.
Growth factors for nerves have also been identified in Velvet Antler.
Extracts of Velvet Antler were found to stimulate the growth of nerve fibers and to
induce changes that affect DNA synthesis. The implications include the regeneration and
repairing of the spinal column in the presence of brain injury. This subject is generating
a great deal of excitement in the medical community. Much progress has been made since the
days when it was believed that we could never influence nerve regeneration.
Our role is to supply the body with the right raw materials as found in
Velvet Antler, to let the body make its own growth hormone. The effects of Velvet Antler
on the human body are vast, and with the wide range of growth factors and growth hormone
precursors found in Velvet Antler, the "Fountain of Youth" is here now to be
tapped by everyone. |
