AMAZING EMU OIL 100% Natural, Non-toxic, Safe and Effective Skin Healer.
Non-Vegetarian Product
As many of you are aware, I research and test a product on family and local
patients before I ever offer it to the HHA Members. If I won't take it or
use it, I won't sell it. I have been reluctant to try the Emu Oil, because a
great many of our customers are vegetarians and when I introduce a
non-vegetarian product, I am bombarded with hysteria from some of them.
However, I am very dedicated to finding products that are all natural, safe
and effective to help us all combat the serious health issues that life can
throw at us. Don't miss the Pictures Worth a Thousand Word link on this
page! After hearing some amazing testimonials and reading up on the
product, I decided to bring some in and try it. I was shocked at the
results I saw with the few people that I have given it to for various
problems. With that said, for many of you that will use this product, I
would like you to be aware of this amazing healing oil that really does help
a great many chronic skin ailments that do not respond to other salves and
lotions and medications.
HERBAL HEALER TESTIMONIALS SO FAR...
1. Chronic sore and cracking heels. Diagnosed by medical doctor as a
fungal. This condition had been getting progressively worse over a period
of five years. Many creams, lotions, anti-fungals had been tried. The Emu
Oil was applied twice a day, morning and evening. Within 2 weeks the
condition was remarkably improved. The Emu Oil was able to penetrate many
layers of the dry skin and after only the first 4 oz. bottle, the heels
looked normal. 2. Chapped and Cracking hands and splits at the finger tips.
With the application of the Emu Oil twice a day, this condition stopped. 3.
Severe psoriasis rash in adult and child, remarkably improved with only 1/2
a bottle used. 4. Baby recovered from severe diaper rash after a bout with
the flu, using only a few applications of Emu Oil. 5. Woman who used Emu Oil
on her face as a moisturizer had noticeably different skin within two weeks.
Her face looked younger and what was most dramatic was that it seemed to
help the skin recover to a glowing youthful color. Small brown spots had
faded. 6. Woman using Emu Oil as a moisturizer for hands and arms, noticed
that the brown "aging" liver spots that had appeared in the last few years
had faded away. 7. HHA Employee with some minor back pain from overexertion,
used one application of Emu Oil in the evening before bed and reported no
more pain.
The Emu Oil is also incredible for just about all types of skin conditions
from what I have researched. I personally am seeing remarkable results
from people who are using it for rosacea, psoriasis, excema, severe skin
wounds, weird rashes, chronic dry skin, fungals on the skin, and joint pain
relief. It can safely be used on children and all animals too. Try it on
your dogs that have chronic skin problems.
SOME INTERESTING PROPERTIES OF EMU OIL
Emu Oil is highly penetrating. This ability to penetrate the stratum
corneum barrier of the skin, brought about by the high levels of oleic acid
mentioned earlier, has in it the basis for many new uses in the future. Emu
oil could be combined with various medicinals or cosmetic materials to take
them beneath this barrier and could do it relatively more cheaply than the
costly liposomes and iontophorisis now available. At the present time,
chiropractors and massage therapists are using emu oil for this penetrating
ability because it gets into the muscles and relaxes them so that the
chiropractic work that has been done lasts longer. As Dr. Ron Westbrook
states in "An Adjustment in Chiropractic" [Emu Today and Tomorrow, July
1995]: "When the spine is misaligned, anything that can cause those tissues
to become loose or more fluid, is great help. The more fluid in the muscles,
the less likely they will pull back out of alignment."
It is anti-inflammatory. According to another article in Emu, Today and
Tomorrow, July 1995, four Australian inventors have isolated a
yellow-colored component in emu oil that appears to be at least one of the
active ingredients causing the oil's anti-inflammatory activity. They have
patented the substance they isolated, and this patent, or other research,
could lead to new anti inflammatory medicines in the future that are without
side effects, are non-irritating, which continue to work and are not thrown
off or rejected by the body, and which are far less expensive than current
anti-inflammatories are. There is much anecdotal material available on the
anti-inflammatory abilities of emu oil. It has been shown to reduce pain,
swelling and stiffness in joints, to reduce recent bruising and muscle pain,
and ease sports related muscle strains as well.
A third important property of emu oil is that it is bacteriostatic. Tests
show that in its pure state, emu oil grows no bacterial organisms. Pure
non-contaminated emu oil has a long shelf life for this reason and also
because of its low levels of polyunsaturated fats which are the most subject
to oxidation and eventual rancidity. This bacteriostatic activity will be of
great help in future uses both cosmetically and pharmaceutically.
Emu oil has a low potential for irritation of the skin. It is shown to have
almost no side effects, and this means that even at full strength, emu oil
has irritation levels so low that they are the same as those found in
putting water on the skin, i.e. practically nonexistent. This enhances its
abilities in sports medicine and in massage and chiropractic as well. This
characteristic is unusual and it also betters its position as an
anti-inflammatory because most of the anti-inflammatory drugs are irritating
and have side effects.
Emu oil is non-comedogenic, that is to say it does not clog up pores and
thus does not cause pimples when used. This cannot be said for mineral oil
(one of the current, popular carrier oils in cosmetics and rubbing oils)
which causes outbreaks of pimples when used.
It is a good moisturizer which adds to its protective ability and promotes
anti-aging of the skin. Researchers believe that its unique combination of
saturated and unsaturated fatty acids may be an explanation for its ability
to enhance the willingness of the upper layers of the skin to hold water. It
increases the thickness of human skin 2.5 times, thus reducing its tendency
to wrinkle.
PICTURES WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS Severe Eczema and Severe Burn

ARTHRITIS PAIN RELIEF Arthritis, muscle and joint pain and swelling can make
any movement torture. Emu Oils natural ability to help these conditions has
been proven by medical research. In a study performed by Dr. Michael
Whitehouse and Dr. Peter Ghosh, leading experts on the evaluation and
development of new anti-arthritis treatments in Australia, proved positive
that Emu Oil does eliminate pain and inflammation in their patients. Another
study conducted by Dr. Thom Leahey of the Arthritis Clinic in Oklahoma,
stated , "The dramatic results I have observed convinced me that this oil
can make an impact on those suffering from arthritis. The use of this oil
has simply changed my practice."
PAINFUL BURNS Emu Oil was the unanimous favorite in a recent burn study
conducted at the Timothy J Harmon Burn Center at Texas Tech University.
Emu oil provided adequate lubrication, aiding in the healing process. There
was a unanimous difference noted in the reduction of scarring and
inflammation when Emu Oil was used. This can also be used on sunburns and
radiation burns.
The Emu Oil that we are carrying is a therapeutic top grade Emu Oil. The
frozen fat is ground just prior to rendering in a water heated stainless
steel facility at 145 degrees for approximately 20 minutes, with constant
agitation. This qualifies the oil as a cold processed oil. Then the oil is
double filtered through 1 micron filtration with the final filtration of 1/2
micron. Vitamin E is added as the antioxidant and preservative. This Emu
Oil has very little odor due to the very clean and high quality fat that is
used. This product is non-toxic and can safely be used for extended periods
of time. http://www.herbalhealer.com/emuoil.html
