Emu Oil???



Recommended Posts

I'd never heard of it before yesterday. Anyone know anything about it? I looked it up and it says it's good for all kinds of things. Just wondering if anyone else has ever used it before?

My 2 year old DD once again ripped open her poor knees after falling on the pavement at DH's fire station. She just gets all scabbed up or they're almost completely gone and then she goes and does it again! Poor thing is going to have scars on her knees by the time she's 3!

Someone told me yesterday that they knew someone who used Emu Oil all the time for all kinds of things but especially for wounds and it keeps things from scarring or at least not scarring too bad.

Anyway, just looking for some input. Thanks!

I have Emu oil. You only need a dab because it is really oily but it does work. I use it on my feet if they get super dry and then put socks on for a few hours. Really helps alot.

Emu oil is fabulous stuff. We buy it by the litre here, lots of places to get it in Australia of course.

It was simply fantastic for my son's terrible eczema when he was little, it's awesome mixed into your facial moisturiser, all the Omega 3's in it are great for your skin, I use a dab or two of it as I have frizzy hair that I straighten daily and its better than any expensive styling product, and if you rub it several times a day into any sore areas, it's a pretty good anti inflammatory too.

Thanks!

I think I'll try to find some. Maybe my local health store has it.

Froggi, it's rendered fat from the Emu. Sounds gross but it's really a good, pure type of oil.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
