In the majority of impotence cases the chief cause is decreased blood flow due to atherosclerosis. There are a variety of medical treatments for erectile dysfunction, but each treatment has its drawbacks. There is a natural treatment using deer antler velvet. Deer antler velvet has been used for more than two thousand years by traditional Chinese herbalists. Velvet is the early growth stage of deer antler, which regenerates naturally every year. This restorative tonic was traditionally renowned for its ability to promote balance, strength and an overall feeling of well being.
Unlike the horns of cattle or sheep, which grow throughout the life of the animal, the antlers of deer and elk are grown new every spring and then cast off. For thousands of years, traditional Asian herbalists have harvested antler growth in the early stage, before it hardens into bone. Antler velvet, as this naturally regenerated, early-stage growth is known, has been prized in traditional Chinese herbalism, as well as in countries including Korea, Russia & Japan. Used predominantly as a vitalizing tonic, its traditional uses have also included reducing the negative effects of stress, improving mental function and improving circulatio At the time of harvesting, antler velvet is rich in nutrients. These include: the minerals calcium, nitrogen, magnesium, phosphorous, sulfur, sodium and potassium and the trace minerals iron, zinc, copper, manganese and selenium. In addition, antler velvet supplies growth factor 1, phospholipids, glycoplipids, collagen and small amounts of glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins, all of which support the skeletal system. Treatment is one to two capsules daily. To make an appointment call the Natural Healing Clinic at (360) 457-1515.
