I would like to set the record straight regarding IGF-1. First of all, it is a cytokine not a hormone.
As CEO of an international biotherapeutic company and the only makers of bonafide cytokines, including single IGF-1 the misinformation that has resonated throughout the media in the last week about IGF-1 is sensationalism at best.

Our chief consultant, Dr JO Serrentino, an internationally-known research scientist in biomedicine who developed Cytokine Therapy,
emphasizes the flagrant misinformation that has been circulating about IGF-1 in recent days. "IGF-1 is a major player in the repair of cartilage and can be used clinically to quell or halt osteoarthritis.
It is not a performance enhancer."

Anyone who says deer antler spray will help one recover from an injuriy is automatically a flaming idiot. This spray is a gimmick and those touting it as a PED need to research the subject

"Their antlers are the fastest-growing substance on planet Earth . . . because of the high concentration of IGF-1."
Uh, I might get some,... but not to spray on my triceps.

"If IGF-1 is abused, he said, people may experience more muscle strength and issues with aggressiveness"

Didn't he murder two people once upon a time? How long has he been using this stuff?

I thought I noticed horns sprouting from Lewis's head the last time they played the Steelers. Maybe he'll start to turn into a deer.

Anything for a buck.....no pun intended...
Hows this for propaganda...

"There is a widespread belief, even today, that deer antler velvet possesses powerful aphrodisiac qualities and that is the reason why it is so keenly sought by Asian buyers
This is not surprising considering the important role that antlers play in the sexual life of the deer. The larger the deer antlers the more potent the stag is considered to be and the largest, superior grade velvet is traditionally regarded as much more valuable than the smaller antlers"

So size matters...the bigger the antler the more "potent"....

Nothing but horsesh**...and the barbaric way these critters are treated by these farms is a disgrace...
The farmers never show pictures of em sawing off living "feeling" tissue....

"A buck in velvet is sensitive and extremely protective of his antlers. These bucks will not fight or spar with their antlers when still in velvet, and if provoked they will rise to strike with their just as deadly hooves instead"

When will there be a profit in cutting off live peoples appendages, grinding them up, drinking or spraying or snorting the finger soup..

Media should correct their terminology and stop calling this stuff "deer-antler spray." Whatever it is, it's not made from the antlers. It's made from the velvet, the soft living tissue which covers the antlers while they are growing every year. After the antlers are done growing, the velvet comes off, helped by the bucks rubbing it off against trees and bushes. I don't know if it's any good for people, but the desire for it by many people has elicited a large industry putting undomesticated deer into ranches so the people can collect the velvet when it's fresh. It's a horrible way to treat deer and I think it should be banned. I think it has contributed to problems with Chronic Wasting Disease in wild deer. I use deerskin in some things I make for sale, but now I have to question the source, because I don't want deerskin from deer confined in these ranches. The velvet trade is basically the only reason these deer ranches exist.
