We’re so sure that this product will work for you, it’s 100% guaranteed!
As the basic component of the entire Progressive Emu product line, the oil derived from the emu offers a wide variety of therapeutic benefits. Properly rendered emu oil is penetrating, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, healing, moisturizing and non-comedogenic.
There are several reasons why emu oil is so effective in penetrating our skin. First, the fatty acid profile of emu oil is very similar to that of humans. The monounsaturated fatty acid, oleic acid (an Omega-3), is the major fatty acid in emu oil. This fatty acid is a known enhancer for transport of bioactive compounds into the skin. Clinical research has shown that properly rendered emu oil penetrates the skin even more effectively than oleic acid by itself.
Another similarity between human skin and emu oil offers further explanation as to the oil's rapid absorption. Our skin is phospholipid deficient, (contains no phosphorous). As a result the skin is resistant to penetration by any matter containing phosphorous. Most organic matter contains some level of phosphorous and is thus unable to pass through the skin. This is not the case, however, with emu oil. Like human skin, emu oil contains no phosphorous allowing it almost immediate absorption into the skin.
The benefits of these fatty acids are not limited to enhanced transdermal absorption. The aforementioned oleic acid is also known to serve as a local anti-inflammatory. Linolenic acid (an Omega-6), the second most abundant fatty acid in emu oil, has been shown to ease muscle and joint pain.
Over a decade of clinical research into the effectiveness of emu oil has validated years of anecdotal evidence in support of emu oil's efficacy. These studies provide empirical evidence of the benefits from using emu oil in the treatment of the following:
Joint pain – reduces pain, swelling and stiffness, especially where joints are close to the skin (hands, elbows, knees, feet)
Bruising and muscle pain – provides significant benefit to recent bruising and muscle pain where injury is relatively superficial, also including significant reduction in sports related muscle strains with post exercise emu oil massage
Keloids – significantly reduces recent keloid scarring
Epithelialized wounds – reduces scar tissue formation and soothes wounds after surgery by anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial action
Burns – promotes faster healing with less pain and scarring
Eczema – reduces irritation and inflammation of the skin
The incredible healing properties possessed by emu oil and its unsurpassed ability to penetrate the skin seem almost to good to be true. The natural question that arises in the face of such stunningly positive results is, "Is emu oil safe?". The answer is a resounding "yes!". Further scientific inquiry has shown that properly rendered emu oil, so closely resembling human composition, is absolutely hypoallergenic. It contains "the allergic potential of water".
