“During the races I felt strong throughout. …”
Chris Morrissey, Singapore“Velvet helped remove joint tiredness, and increases my strength…”
George Christison, Tutira (Hawke’s Bay)“Using New Zealand deer velvet supplements, I’ve noticed improved recovery time during hard training phases. On top of that, I haven’t succumbed to Winter ills and chills and seem to have less wear and tear on joints and tendons.”
Morgan Foster, Hamilton“New Zealand velvet has increased my endurance and strength in all disciplines – running, cycling and kayaking, and reduced recovery time between training sessions…”
Rhys Burns, Gisborne“I feel that my recovery after longer sessions has been quicker…”
Ross Rotherham, Christchurch“This stuff is awesome! Noticed much better recovery, therefore harder training next day.”
Sonya Clark, Auckland“I found I began recovering from my training sessions much quicker once I started taking New Zealand deer velvet supplements…”
