| Emu Oil is a revolutionary healing and penetrating agent which is derived from the Australian Emu Bird, a six to eight foot tall flightless bird. It has been studied in the United States for the past seven years and has been written up in The New England Journal of Medicine. Several universities including Boston University, Texas Tech University Health Science Center, Indiana University School of Medicine, and Auburn University have been involved in many years of research studying the effects of emu oil on the skin. Through this research, emu oil has been shown to have 5 major beneficial properties to the skin.
It was proven and documented by Dr. Alexander Zemstov, Assistant Professor in the Departments of Dermatology and Biochemistry at Texas Tech, that emu oil is penetrating, emulsifying, non-comedogenic, non-irritating, and highly moisturizing. Dr. Zemstov feels that the most important benefit for cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies is its penetrating qualities. He went on to say a medicated cream will not do much good if the medicine cannot penetrate the skin barrier.
"Oleic acid is, and has been used to carry bioactive compounds through the skin, and this was the highest fatty acid that was found in emu oil."
Dr. John Griswold, of the Harner Burn Center, compiled results from burn patients over a nine month period. The initial report identified two important results from evaluation of the data: patients unanimously favored Emu Oil as a treatment; and there was a notable difference in the wounds as far as reduction of scarring and inflammation.
"Stretch marks, such as those acquired during pregnancy, can be prevented by application of Emu Oil. Additionally, application of Emu Oil diminishes or completely erases existing stretch marks."
