Vladimir Putin bathes in antler blood because he believes it has health benefits including boosting male potency, reports claim.The Russian president has been a fan of the procedure since the mid-2000s and isn’t the only Kremlin official to enjoy the bizarre ritual.Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin is also said to soak in the rare liquid, which is extracted by painfully hacking off a deer's horns.Defence minister Sergei Shoigu introduced the alternative treatment to Putin who washed in a “bathtub containing an odorant extract from blood-filled deer antlers”.Although there is no evidence for the health benefits, the blood’s alleged impacts also include age reversal, bone and muscle strengthening, and even improvements to eyesight and hearing. It has been a tradition for hundreds of years in Russia and there is also evidence of it taking place in China and Korea.

widespread speculation about the health of Russian leader Vladimir Putin, reports are emerging that he takes regular baths in a controversial liquid extracted from deer antlers that is alleged to “increase male potency”.Reports also claim the despot is being accompanied by a cancer specialist almost everywhere he goes. According to a report from Russian news site Proekt, Putin has become increasingly concerned about his health as he approaches 70.He’s known to make frequent visits to Sochi, a popular Black Sea resort, where he is attended by a team of doctors from Moscow’s Central Clinical Hospital.One of them is cancer specialist Evgeny Selivanov, who has reportedly spent over 166 days with the leader over the four years to 2020.But alongside respected medical experts, Putin is exploring less scientific methods to preserve his health.According to Russian news site Meduza, he’s been taking baths in an extract made from the antlers of young red deer – a remedy supposed to boost the cardiovascular system and “improve male potency”.One Russian farm - which exports antlers for use in Chinese traditional medicine, claims: "Extract from red deer antlers acts as a strong tonic, especially for men's potency."It strengthens the body's bones, muscles, teeth, eyesight and hearing, cures pleurisy, pneumonia, asthma, joint pain, osteoporosis, and problems with the spine."The antler bath craze has become increasingly popular among the Russian elite after it was popularised by now-disgraced Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu However animal rights activists say that using deers’ antlers in this way is cruel.

Vladimir Putin could be suffering from a "Napoleon complex" that has pushed the world to the brink of war, an expert has claimed.The Russian President is just 5ft 7ins tall, which is three inches smaller than the average Russian and may explain Putin's maniacal behaviour.The image-conscious president could join a list of rulers including Napoleon, Hitler and Stalin as failed leaders whose height got the better of them, leading to the provocation of bloody wars in Europe.Professor Abraham Buunk and Professor Mark van Vugt argue that Putin is suffering from a bad Napoleon Complex, with some reports suggesting the Russian President could be as short as 5ft 2ins.The psychological claim allegedly afflicted French emperor Napoleon, who was often depicted as short.Theories stemming from the Napoleon complex mentality claim that some insecure smaller men tend to be more aggressive and domineering, seeking to assert themselves and their power over others through ruthless means.Experts have since claimed that Putin is showing all the signs of a classic Napoleon complex case, The Sun reported.Snaps of the Russian President show Putin wearing some oddly clunky shoes, with some theorising that the chunky high heeled shoes are there to boost his height, with lifts buried inside the shoes.Professor van Vugt has said the tyrant is adopting ruthless tactics like poisoning and warfare to "compensate for his lack of physical strength" and said world leaders must be "very careful that... [pushing him] doesn't start a third world war".Speaking to The Sun, the professor said: "He wants to come across as a strong leader.

Vladimir Putin is “constantly” accompanied by a doctor specialising in thyroid cancer as rumours of his ill health refuse to disappear, a new investigation shows.Surgeon Yevgeny Selivanov, of Moscow's Central Clinical Hospital, has flown to the Russian leader no less than 35 times in Black Sea resort Sochi, his favourite place of residence.The respected doctor’s thesis - showing his area of medical expertise - was entitled: ”Peculiarities of diagnostics and surgical treatment of elderly and senile patients with thyroid cancer".This follows reports that Putin is dying in agony from terminal bowel cancer, according to intelligence from the Pentagon and in Ukraine. His “puffy face” is a sign he is taking chemotherapy drugs or steroids and his unsmiling expression shows he is in constant pain, US sources say.The recent discovery by investigative media Project (or Proekt) media - blocked in Russia and now functioning from abroad - backs recent theories that Putin declared war when he was suffering medical problems hidden from the Russian people.
