Deer Antler Velvet Side Effects

By Frances Peterson


Deer Antler supplements are becoming increasingly popular these days because they are known to help enhance overall athletic performance, sexual performance, and even some other conditions like asthma and like. While most people concentrate on the benefits, many actually ignore the possible deer antler velvet side effects. To give an idea, here are a few to take note of.

Generally, this type of vitamin does not have adverse symptoms produced in a normal consumer. However, there would always be the possibility of an allergic reaction when taking this kind of vitamin. Always take note that everyone has a different body type and some body types cannot take this type of vitamin.

That is why it is always highly recommended that one would visit his or her physician or doctor before taking the supplement. Show the doctor the supplement and ask whether or not it is compatible. It is also a good idea to not shock the body by taking it in smaller dosages than the recommended then increase over time.

Some of the other small reactions that one may experience from taking this vitamin would be slight headaches and nausea. This is because the main goal of the vitamin would be to increase IGF levels meaning it works like a growth hormone. Due to that, it might create some effects in the body since the body is not used to having it inside.

Aside from these though, there really are no harmful conditions that may result from the consumption of this type of vitamin. In theory though, there are certain risks involved if one is not careful with taking the supplement. Take note that IGF or Insulin Growth Factor will spike up after one takes this supplement which means that IGF 1 will also be spiking up.

When the levels of IGF 1 are raised, then there will be a possibility that men consumers can get prostate cancer. While the supplement itself does not directly cause the prostate cancer, it heightens the hormones in the body that may encourage the growth of the cancer. Again though, this is usually the case theoretically although there are no studies regarding this.

Aside from that, there would also be the risk of kidney problems in elderly individuals. While this supplement supposedly helps with kidney problems, there are times when senior individuals cannot take the vitamin which is why the effects would backfire. In that case, kidney problems would arise instead.

For those wondering about the adverse effects that this vitamin may cause, do not worry since there are only three at most. However, improper use may actually lead to even worse conditions that may be extremely harmful even in the long run. Since this is not an FDA approved vitamin, one is always recommended to exercise a lot of caution when taking it. Just remember that moderation is the key when it comes to even taking supplements.
