People And Pets Can Benefit From Elk Antler Pills

By Catherine Cole


The Eastern World has been a great source for health secrets ever since China ended its long program of isolationism. Western people have benefited from everything from coconut oil to shark cartilage, and more. Now we get to open our minds to the health benefits of elk antler pills, both for ourselves as well as our aging furry family members.

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.

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.

Even the stags themselves know the benefits, as they are often seen nibbling on their own velvety antlers in the wild. The minerals contained within act like a salt lick for humans, as well as their dogs and cats. Mineral deficiencies are responsible for many of the ailments we suffer due to over-cultivation and irresponsible reuse of farm land.

These stags are raised from birth to their second year as if they are prized pets. It is not until the age of two that the harvesting of their velvety antlers begins, and this task is done with compassion as it guide. In the United States, the stags are cared for by very specialized veterinarians, and there is no suffering of pain or humiliation of injury in the process.

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.

This yearly harvesting is done until the stags reach the age of fifteen years. The fate of these beautiful creatures varies depending on who their caretakers are. Herders do not always feel comfortable eating the stags when they have reached the end of their age of harvest, so often they are set free where they can live out their lives by their own wits.

In the United States they are often set free for the same reason, but sometimes people do buy the animal and take it to slaughter themselves. Their flesh is an organic source of meat, which is healthy for anyone. So, long after they have gifted us with vitality from their antlers, they continue to give to us with the gift of their flesh, their skin, their sacred life.
