“IGF-1 (is a) powerful stimulant to cellular metabolism throughout the body. IGF-1 growth factor carries out many of the beneficial actions of HGH . . . IGF-1 is the downstream player that actually exerts most of the effects we associate with HGH . . . it is 10 times more potent than growth hormone (in its anti-aging action).”

The anti-aging medical community believes that, as we age, our rate of diminished function is not inevitable.  They advocate compensating for the body’s declining capabilities with lifestyle and supplementation targeted at optimum health for prolonged mental and physical abilities.

Various health supplements use the term “anti-aging,” but most of these have extremely limited functions that are “indirectly” related to anti-aging.  A few are intended to have a more direct influence on the aging process.  The following is a comparison of anti-aging supplement “categories.” 

Homeopathic Growth Hormone:  A small amount of synthetic Human Growth Hormone (HGH) in a very diluted solution.  It is intended to mimic the effects of full-strength pharmaceutical HGH which must be administered by a physician and must be taken by injection (see HGH explanation below chart).  Generally, in a homeopathic, the amount of active ingredient (HGH) is so minute that it is insignificant to produce the desired results on its own.  Rather, a homeopathic attempts to stimulate the body into producing more of its own HGH.  Unfortunately, as your body ages, it becomes physically less capable of HGH production, regardless of the stimulus.

HGH Secretagogues: Common amino acids and/or other ingredients that attempt to stimulate the body into producing more of its own HGH.  Again, the older the body, the less capable it is of responding to this type of stimulus.

Velvet Antler: Natural mix of Growth Factors and Cofactors as it comes directly from Mother Nature.  Velvet antler contains Growth Factors and Cofactors just like those produced in your body.  Velvet antler in capsules/powders tends to lose potency during digestion.  As a liquid oral spray, it goes directly into the body for immediate assimilation without losing potency.

What is Human Growth Hormone (HGH)?

Produced by the human body, “real” Human Growth Hormone is a hormone responsible for production of Growth Factors (proteins) that perform a variety of developmental and operational functions in the human body.  While the body is growing and developing throughout youth, production of HGH is high.  After maturity (around age 20), the body’s production of HGH declines naturally and dramatically.  Despite this decline, HGH (or the Growth Factors it produces) is still necessary during adulthood for growth, repair and regeneration of cells throughout the entire body.

HGH is also the common name of a pharmaceutical drug synthetically created. HGH has effective anti-aging properties, but it also has considerations of extremely high cost, artificially produced, supplied only through physicians, administration by injection, and potential side effects.  While HGH is a highly significant scientific achievement and has great merits, we do not feel it is a practical solution for the average person. 

What is Velvet Antler?

Because of its numerous medicinal and anti-aging properties, velvet antler has become highly regarded as an effective, proven health supplement.  Velvet antler has been used for a wide variety of conditions for over 2,000 years, and without reported side effects. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, velvet antler is second only to ginseng in importance as a natural remedy.  In addition to its long history of use, velvet antler has been heavily researched by modern scientists.  It is a safe, natural and renewable resource. 

A few types of antler-bearing animals naturally shed their antlers and regrow them each year.  During this process, the antler has a velvety covering, hence velvet antler.  Because the antlers are regrown each year, they are supplied with a high amount of Growth Factors and Cofactors essential to growth and development.

Various countries specialize in the velvet antler industry, which is highly regulated. In New Zealand, deer are raised specifically for this purpose.  They live a pampered life, grazing in lush roaming pastures.  Once a year, under control of veterinarians, the antlers are removed humanely, with no harm to the animals, which are then returned to their pastures. The antler is processed in hygienic conditions and made into pills, powder or liquid.

Velvet antler is a rich, natural source of numerous Growth Factors (IGF-1 & others), and vital Cofactors that are instrumental in cellular growth, repair and regeneration. As you age, your body becomes less efficient at manufacturing these Growth Factors and Cofactors. Velvet antler helps compensate for this decline in Growth Factors and Cofactors.  Longevitrol uses velvet antler and modern technology to provide Growth Factors in a potent, ready-to-use oral spray that helps with cellular growth and regeneration throughout the body.
