5 Benefits of Emu Oil

 Emu oil has been used for several years as a traditional medicine across Australia.

What is Emu Oil?

Emu oil is a by-product of the emu, a native bird to Australia. The birds are processed for their gourmet, low-fat, low-cholesterol meat and in an effort to use every part of the bird possible, the fat is filtered and sterilized, later producing the oil.

Emu oil contains several benefits due to the high amount of essential fatty acids (Omega-3’s, Omega 6) it contains.
