An encapsulation of deer velvet powder for ensuring delivery of the deer velvet powder to the terminal ileum of the small intestine, thereby ensuring micellization of unaltered molecules of the deer velvet powder, and systemic delivery of the unaltered molecules to all the organs of the body for regeneration and repair. The encapsulation includes: a delayed release capsule, and deer velvet powder contained within the delayed release capsule. The delayed release capsule is acid resistant, thereby protecting the deer velvet powder from digestive processes while transiting the stomach and upper small intestine, enabling the deer velvet powder to be released substantially along the terminal ilium of the small intestine so as to ensure micellization and absorption of unaltered molecules of deer velvet. Thus, swallowing the deer velvet powder encapsulated in a delayed release capsule delivers more of the benefits of deer velvet than standard encapsulations of deer velvet.
