About Emu Oil |
A NATURAL WONDER
Science is proving emu oil to be a modern miracle for the relief of pain and inflammation of injured tissue and joints. Studies and research are ongoing, documenting many of the claims for Emu oil by medical specialists and personal experience.
Modern research has documented that emu oil possesses numerous beneficial qualities. Laboratory experiments and analysis of emu oil, both in Australia and in the U.S., have confirmed that it has the ability to reduce inflammation of the joints.
Emu oil contains high levels of linolenic acid ... a substance known to ease joint pain temporarily, and oleic acid, which has a local anti-inflammatory effect on dermal tissues.
When Emu oil was tested, it proved to be hypo-allergenic, and to have an extremely high level of purity.

Hair
Emu oil acts as a fortifying agent for limp dry hair, helps to eliminate split ends, and restores a natural healthy shine to the hair. There is decreased loss of hair due to improved health of scalp cells, and in some cases, there have even been reports of new hair growth.

How to use Emu Oil
Place a few drops of Emu oil in the palm of the hand. If the oil is thick, and lotion-like, the bottle may be placed in a cup of warm water for a few minutes to liquefy. This warm, thin oil will penetrate the skin more easily and bring faster results.

A few drops of oil massaged into the affected area is sufficient. The skin should not feel oily when you are finished.
Emu oil has no odor and will not stain clothing. Apply oil several times a day as needed.
Recent scientific research
An increasingly large number of medical specialists are discovering the beneficial properties of emu oil and are adopting it into their treatment techniques.
Dr. Leigh Hopkins, a clinical Professor of Pharmacy, has researched the benefits of emu oil for internal consumption. He observes that dry skin and an increase in skin problems may be due to the reduction of fats in the diet. "...everyone should have adequate intake of at least 50 essential nutrients, and that includes the essential fats that are contained in emu oil" says Hopkins.
Dr. Howard Hagglund, a physician who stays physically fit by working out with a trainer, notes that emu oil works well for arthritis, injuries , and exercise regimes.
Dr. Bernard J. Hersh, a Podiatrist who uses emu oil in the treatment of feet says, "The fact is that emu oil really is therapeutic in keeping a moisture barrier within the skin so that it doesn't dry and crack."
