Why choose VIGR Elk Velvet Antler over other brands?

  1. VIGR Lifestyles works with a Saskatchewan based member-owned new generation co-op that comprises 30 producers. New Gen Co-ops are controlled by its members, and ensure that all producers are operating by the high standards set by the New Gen Co-op Board of Directors.
  1. We have more farmers working for us than any other brand of elk velvet antler. More farmers mean more antlers, which leads to a greater abundance of premium quality elk velvet antler.
  1. Working with a New Gen Co-op Ensures that profits from operations are returned fairly and evenly among members and are created to improve production and standards.
  1. All elk velvet antler is hand selected by a 20 year producer who has had training in selecting the best antler. We produce 50,000 pounds of antler every year and we literally sift through ALL ANTLER and select the best for what is in the VIGR Lifestyles Elk Velvet Antler.
  1. Hand selecting, inspecting, and grading antler is critical to the potency and effectiveness of elk velvet antler. Harvest must be strictly timed to ensure the highest quality. If antler is not harvested at the exact correct time, quality and potency suffers. Because we have 50,000 pounds to select from, this is NEVER a problem. The customer is always getting the best elk velvet antler Western Canada has to offer.
  1. All elk velvet antler brands currently on the market are single farm operations only. They cannot guarantee high quality at high volumes. VIGR Lifestyles can.
