Deer Antler Velvet (DAV) for Bodybuilding - Rob Riches

Rob Riches, internationally known fitness model and champion bodybuilder, discusses deer antler velvet (DAV). Deer antler velvet is a nutrient rich superfood containing many minerals, trace elements, 21 amino acids, and 13 growth factors. It is available in capsules, liquid and tablets from Antler Farms.

Natural, concentrated deer antler velvet extracts:

Deer antler velvet has a set of growth factors, which are referred to as deer antler velvet’s full growth factor matrix.

The full growth factor matrix includes:

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) I
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) II
Transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-A)
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-B)
Epidermal growth factor (EGF)
Erythropoietin (EPO)
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs)
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)
Growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF9)
Interleukins Nerve growth factor (NGF) and other neurotrophins
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
Vascular endothelial growth factor

While these growth factors work individually and collectively in the body to stimulate cellular growth, proliferation, healing, and cellular differentiation, IGF-1 is the primary growth factor that deer antler velvet is sought after by athletes including bodybuilders.

IGF-1 is a powerful anabolic hormone. It has the potential to increase muscular size and strength, repair connective tissue, and decrease recovery time – all of which can enhance performance in sports.

While IGF-1 can be ingested in food, it must pass through the stomach acids before being utilized by the body. This journey through the digestive system limits the absorption of growth factors.

Our deer antler velvet extracts remedy this issue by bypassing the digestive system. Our unique extraction process preserves the full growth factor matrix in its naturally occurring state. The concentrated 75:1 extract ratio supplies an abundance of growth factors which are absorbed directly into the bloodstream through sublingual administration. Antler Farms® deer antler velvet extract has a high bioavailability of up to 95%.

The consistent use of deer antler velvet extract boosts the level of IGF-1 and other growth factors in the body, safety and effectively.
