How does this compare to other emu oils?

This was not as good as others I have used, it's a bit watered down. Pure Emu oil is also sold on Amazon(it has a picture of an Emu on the label) and I found that to be much better.

I haven't used it that much, just around my eyes and it works well. The cost is much less than others but I think it does a good job.

I find it penetrates the skin better leaving the skin softer and smooth to the touch longer...hope this helps.

Yes, I tried a shampoo and conditioner with it and love it. I had much less hair falling out and no dry scalp. I have not put pro emu oil in my hair. If I had a itchy area on my scalp I would put some there. I mostly use the emu oil on my eczema, achy joints and sore muscles.

I like them both. The coconut oil I use when I fry eggs or scramble them. They come out non greasy and taste better. I use it for cooking fish and also for making french toast. Also I use it for my hair and skin. A little dabs to condition hair, and later wash it out makes it real soft. It adds good nutrients to my hair. It makes my skin soft when too dry. It hydrates quicker then oil. It is a good product. Evoo is great for food dishes and also healthy. I use that alot too. I just started using the coconut oil, was impressed by how the oil sucks into the food quickly without leaving an oily taste. It doesnt burn the food. The nice part is I put a small amount on my hands and areas that are dry and it goes on oily but hydrates the skin quicker then creams and skin feels soft. So i use them both.

From what I know, they eat emu's like chicken in Australia. They raise them for meat. After an emu has already been killed and sent off to be turned into food, the fatty parts that would be otherwise thrown away is what is used to make the oil. Basically, you can't get emu oil from a living emu, but I doubt they grow them for the oil alone. That's highly inefficient. So to answer your question, no, they are not harmed in the process of making the oil because they're already dead and the excess fatty parts are sent to the factories to make the oil and other stuff. Mind you, I'm no expert. I just bought this and did a little research to find out why it worked so well. Hope that helps! From what I know, they eat emu's like chicken in Australia.

I don't know about the effects that Emu Oil has on stretch marks. I know they use it on burn victims to help heal their skin as Emu Oil is readily absorbed into the skin. I have heard that 100% Shea Butter prevents and minimizes stretch marks, though. You can find it online. Shea Butter is also good for burns. But, Emu Oil is also an amazing oil if it is pure. This brand seems to work as well as some of the other "Gold" brands for less money.

Where did you get the 99.999% pure from. Although the image shown above says 100% progressive emu oil, the bottle I received does not say this. The bottle simple saysingredients: emu oilI got the vitamin e oil from their website after I went searching for information because like I said the information on the bottle is not very clear on this emu oil.However just looking at the description given above (which I should have paid attention to) it says it contains .00022% vitamin e but from my other research, if emu oil is properly refined, it should not need any vitamin e as a preservative Where did you get the 99.999% pure from.

Both work for me. But the Emerita Pro-Gest smells weird, kind of like stale red wine. It only smells until it fully dries, but that's about 10 minutes. The Source Natural also has a scent, kind of a rosemary/eucalyptus blend, which is okay for me. It just smells clean and kind of refreshing, again, only until it dries. Or is absorbed into your skin--not sure how to describe it. BUT one nice pro for the Emerita is that you can buy a box of single use applications in little foil packets: convenient for travel, and gives you exactly the right dose w/o having to measure or just guess.

From what I know, some people have suffer a post infection stage from insect bites, leaving them with small red dots for long periods of time after the initial bite. Applying Pure emu oil enhances the healing process and reduces scarring. Emu Oil has been shown to work as a naturally occurring analgesic reduce the itching and pain. Hope this helps.

It is 100% pure according to the label. It seemed consistent with the qualities of Emu oil, but I had no way to analyze it. I did note that the label says it is refined emu oil. It is lightly creamy in color.

Sorry that I can't answer your immediate question, but check out this site. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/08/14/is-krill-oil-48-times-better-than-fish-oil.aspxI don't know if it's a truthful review or biased in some way. I have taken the krill oil for the last several months and I feel better than ever. I even cut back to 1 capsule a day. The problem is omega 3 is a product that works in the background and doesn't present immediate benefits. So whether it's the krill oil or something else, I can't be certain.You might investigate web sites to get a better response to your question.

No, this is not certified by the American Emu Association. There is no oversight on this oil and there is no way to determine where it came from or what is in it.

It contains Emu Oil which has been known for years to help calm pain. I like it. Non greasy, no odor, absorbs quickly.

Not sure about Emu Blue, but this is a lotion for the body it helps with dry skin and other skin problems. Actually a lotion yes but with the benefits of much more. Not for the face Id use Emu oil pure for my face and extra dry spots, along with this great lotion. Hope this helps.

One moe thing, I use the emu oil on top of the HA. It helps even out your skin and remove fine lines and wrinkles. In fact I used the emu oil before I started with the HA. Now my skin is firm smooth pore free and wrinkle free and I'm 48. Hope this helps.

I have been using Blue Emu for many years - it is amazing. I have recently started having arthritis pain and began taking NSAIDS and within a short time began hemorrhaging from stomach ulcers which I didn't even know I had. Back to the Blue Emu which is really working quite well - I don't know why I decided to use the NSAIDs. I just need to remember to use it every 6 to 8 hours, before I start hurting again.

On the bottle, for ingredient: "100% Pure Emu Oil" - nothing else is listed. So, as far as I can tell, there are no other ingredients.

Here is the best answer, direct from the internet.....not the product line....Emu oil is oil derived from adipose tissue harvested from certain subspecies of the emu, Dromaius novaehollandiae, a flightless bird indigenous to Australia. I think it works wonders.
