Topic: Velvet (antler covering)

	Antler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Antlers are the large and complex horn-like appendages of deer, consisting of bony outgrowths from the head with no covering of keratin as is found in true horns.
		While an antler is growing it is covered with highly vascular skin called velvet, which supplies oxygen and nutrients to the growing bone; once the antler has achieved its proper size, the velvet is lost and the antler's bone dies.
		Due to its hardness, antler was an important material for tools from the Palaeolithic onwards (points, harpoons, needles etc).

		Deer velvet is a universal term used to describe immature antlers of male deer.
		An important concept that is a common theme of many research papers is that the combination of all components of velvet antler provides a synergistic effect that is greater than the total effect that would be achieved by the separate use of each of its individual constituents.
		That means that if velvet is broken down into its constituents that are used separately, their combined effect is significantly less than the effect realised when the nutrients are provided in the naturally combined form of velvet antler.
