FEEDBACK

"From strengthening joints and muscles and helping the body to adapt to stress, to enhancing energy, mood and mental focus, this supplement derived from the bone cartilage of the rapidly regenerating deer antler may soon prove to be the supplement-of-choice for the 40somethings."

"Deer Antler Velvet is poised to be one of the most versatile multipurpose natural remedies to arrive in the West..."

-Life Extension Magazine

"Deer (velvet) antler is very valuable-and expensive-so enter the purchasing process with the attitude that you are going to get something really special. Make it the king herb, or at least the co-king with Ginseng or Ganoderma."

-Ron Teeguarden Master Herbalist Best-selling Author

"Herbs and deer velvet combinations have long been used by the Chinese and Russian Olympic teams. These are not to be confused with vitamin and mineral supplements. Big difference. Like the difference between Mother Nature and man-made. Herbs are really like vegetables, except they are much more intense in properties and nutritive values, whereas vitamins are isolates, molecules compounded together into a pill. The human body is biologically programmed to assimilate best with 'whole' food as opposed to 'isolates.'"

-Dr. Maoshing Ni, Doctor of Chinese Medicine Best-selling Author

"Velvet antler is a way of putting back some of the things that we're missing, things that our bodies are designed to thrive on. We can't bring whole fresh-killed animals home to our kitchens, even if we wanted to. But we can take antler supplements. The question I feel compelled to ask is this: is it safe to not use an antler supplement?"

-Betty Kamen, PhD Nutritionist, Radio-TV Host, Author

"But more than supporting healthy joint function, I believe that taking New Zealand deer velvet helps my general good health and energy levels. I have continued taking it for nearly a decade because I believe it helps me. I am told my experience is consistent with its use in Chinese Medicine as a general wellness tonic".

-Sir Bob Charles NZ Most Successful Golf Player 6th Highest Money Earner of all time US Senior PGA Tour

"Since taking New Zealand Deer Velvet I have found that my recovery from training, competition and even travel has been greatly enhanced. I feel much more on top of my training schedule and this gives me confidence when I race."

-Hamish Carter Triathlete Current World No. 1

"After taking deer velvet for several months, I’ve handled training three times a day better than before. I haven’t been sick and I’ve felt fresher. My strength and physiology has improved significantly during this period."

-Rob Waddell Single Sculler World and Olympic Champion

"I find the benefits of recovery from training and after racing tremendous. I also find a better well-being in mental alertness and also an ability to avoid illness of all kinds. I have been taking Deer Velvet since March 1999."

-Allan Sinclair Marathon Runner

"After reading reports from other athletes and researching the product for myself, I decided to give NZ deer velvet a try. One year later I am feeling stronger, pushing heavier weights with more reps. I also find my recovery from these sessions is a lot quicker. Another very noticeable difference has been an improvement to my immune system and less injuries with only one minor cold in the past twelve months."

-Malcolm McDonald Otago Surf Life Saving

"After winning a World Champs in the first year of using the Velvet, I certainly wouldn't attempt to do another race without it. I like to ensure that I have prepared to the best of my abilities for a race and now this includes using deer velvet as part of any preparation."

-Debbie Nelson Duathlete/Multisport Athlete

"I was introduced to NZ Deer Velvet after an intensive off-season training programme resulted in my suffering from debilitating shin splints. After extensive physio, anti-inflammatories and massage, the pain was still hindering my performance. I had difficulty playing more than half a game. I decided to trial deer velvet as I felt I had nothing to lose and everything to gain. Since taking the deer velvet I have experienced little if any shin pain and have been able to play as many as 2-3 full games of netball a weekend without suffering pain.

-Jo Steed Netball Player Former Silver Fern

"I intially started using Deer Velvet through a recommendation from my coach. I admit I did not fully understand the benefits of Deer Velvet until I contracted a virus last year, while in training in Europe. This virus resulted in reactive arthritis which left me unable to ride, train and most importantly unable to compete in the World Championships in Berlin, which I had trained for all year. Deer Velvet was a key ingredient in my recovery and within 2 months I was back on my bike and training for the Sydney 2000 Olympics.

-Glen Thomson Cyclist

"When you are a professional athlete you are always looking for something that is going to give you the competitive edge over your opponents. In using New Zealand Deer Velvet, I believe that I have something that for me provides this edge. When you have made efforts that have completely exhausted you for that day and you are going to have to do it again tomorrow and for the following 20 days after that, recovery is the most important thing. I believe that from using New Zealand Deer Velvet, I can physically feel a difference in my recovery by the following day.

-Julian Dean Cyclist

"Prior to taking deer velvet I was beginning to experience extreme fatigue, difficulties in concentration, depression, anxiety and recurrent bouts of illness. I have now been taking deer velvet for the past three months. The most noticeable observation I have been able to make is a marked improvement in my overall health. Despite continued stress, I have not fallen ill once over this time and feel in general considerably more alert, physically stronger and able to cope with early mornings and late nights."
