We only sell pure emu oil that is filtered three different times.
Once slowly by low indirect heat to kill any bacteria & or contaminants.
Then run twice through cheese cloth & clay which helps to make it the creamy off white in color and odorless.
It is a cosmetic grade which can be taken by mouth or used topically on the skin as well.

What is Emu oil?
The Emu as a species goes back approx. 40 million years to the saurian age and its oil has been - and still is being - used by the Australian Aboriginal people for more than 40 000 years as the provider of food and medicine. The Emu plays an important part in Aboriginal Dreamtime and is regarded as sacred. This explains that there must be some special, beneficial health characteristics of Emu oil.
Emu oil is derived from Emu fat which is accumulated by the bird seasonably and which allows it to not only survive some of the harshest climatic conditions on earth, it also enables the Emu to reproduce under these conditions. Emu oil is one of the most powerful synergies of fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, neurotransmitters and many other yet unidentified components. It is the life providing substance for the species.
Today in our “modern” times there are two fundamentally different approaches to Emu oil:
1. One looks at it from an oil chemist’s point:
of view and refines and processes it like crude oil
and the outcome is a nice looking and “clean clear” oil
being liquid and transparent, which is the main
quality criteria from a purely technical point of view.
Refining:
if not done properly will strip out all the beneficial
parts the oil naturally achieves, however, as an
irreversible result the oil will be stripped from its most
"functional natural components".
It can become “dead” in bioactive terms and not worth paying a
premium for because it is just another oil "Manufactured" to an industrial standard.
It took Mother Nature millions of years to “naturally assemble” Emu oil
and make it the powerful, beneficial substance it is,
why would anyone in his or her sane mind try
to undo this by trying to make it look “nice”? Why then bother using Emu oil at all?
2. One looks at the full picture of Emu oil:
Nutritional and therapeutic aspects refer to Aplications.
These first Australians MOST CERTAINLY DID NOT
use technology for their rendering and
they did NOT over refine or strip the oil from its most natural beneficial
components. This is how “modern” man ruins
his food and nutrition.
It contains life supporting components preserved
which keep the male bird alive and well when he
sits and incubates the eggs for 54 days without
feed and water. If you take part of his nutrients
away he will not be a healthy Emu for long
anymore….
It is NOT just an oil but a complex SYNERGY of
vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids incl.
Omega 3 and 6 and others which must not be
destroyed for the sake of a clean looking product.
It is assembled by the wisdom of mother nature, not by
human brains & modern technology.

urns, wounds, bruises, and as a pain reliever for bone, muscle, and joint disorders.[citation needed] Emu oil is approximately 70% unsaturated fatty acids. The largest component is oleic acid – a mono-unsaturated fatty acid. Emu oil also contains about 20% linoleic (Omega 6) acid and 1-2% linolenic (Omega 3) acid. There is some evidence to suggest that the oil may have medicinal benefit.[1] It is frequently used topically to soften skin and is frequently found in ointments for dry cracked heels.
Emu oil has been shown in studies to aid in reducing scar formation in healed burn wounds, muscle sprains, and arthritis due to its strong anti-inflammatory properties.
Emu oil is a complete neutral lipid, since emu oil lacks phospholipid, making it highly penetrating to the skin.[2][3]
