From The Research Labs

• Tests at University of Texas Medical School in Houston showed that even though it’s an oil, emu oil was demonstrated to be a non pore-clogging substance.


• Dr. A. Zemtsov of Indiana University School of Medicine in research test showed emu oil is highly penetrating, does not clog pores, does not promote growth of bacteria and is hypo-allergenic.


• In a double blind study, Dr. Zemtsov and Dr. Monica Gaddis and Dr. Victor Montalvo-Lugo of Ball Memorial Hospital compared emu oil to mineral oil. They found emu oil had better skin penetration, better moisturizing properties and mineral oil was more pore clogging.

From The Research Labs and Clinical Results

• Dr. John Griswold of the Harner Burn Center in Lubbock, Texas, was impressed with the oil's ability to generate new skin cells so quickly. He also found a statistically significant difference in scar reduction and inflammation in emu oil-treated wounds in his long-term study.


• Research by Dr. Elton J. Lormand of the Advanced ENT and Facial Surgery Institute in Cullman, Alabama showed emu oil lessened radiation burns.


• Dr. G.R. Hobday of Australia has done 10 years of clinical experimentation with over 500 patients and proven emu oil to be effective with
• dry skin problems, eczema, keloids, burns, insect bites, epithelialized wounds, joint pain and muscle aches.


• Dr. Esta Kronberg, a Houston, Texas dermatologist began prescribing emu oil for her patients several years ago after using it on a sunburn. "When I realized how well it fights inflammation, I began using it for many different problems, all with good results”. A spider bite on her ankle was the next test. "Within a few hours after applying emu oil, all the stinging was gone." Dr. Kronberg said emu oil begins healing faster and relieves pain, so patients feel better sooner. "It works quickly, our patients have been really pleased," she explained, "and they are intrigued because it is a natural substance." Dr. Kronberg finds emu oil is the best treatment for first and second degree burns. She has also had good success with rosacea patients. "Even though it is an oil, it seems to heal inflamed, ruddy and raw skin."


• Dr. Dan Dean, of Shepard, Michigan, routinely recommends emu oil to his patients at risk of skin sores and ulcerations, (diabetics, convalescents, and patients with poor circulation). He also uses it for psoriasis, eczema, arthritis, sore joints and surgical wounds. According to Dr Dean, with a typical third-degree burn or skin abrasions, emu oil cuts healing time by almost half. Additionally, Dr. Dean used emu oil on an elderly diabetic patient with heal ulcerations and gangrene of the toes. He was scheduled for foot amputation. Because the emu oil healed the foot so well, it was saved from amputation.


• Dr. Thomas Samaras of Virginia Beach, Virginia experienced the results in his own family. His son suffered with eczema behind his knees for 2 years. Emu oil cleared up the condition within 10 days.


• Dr. Marlin Dimond, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon in Glendale, Arizona, had a double mastectomy patient that used emu oil on her incisions. Because she healed so quickly with minimal scarring, it put her 3-4 weeks ahead of schedule for reconstruction

From The Research Labs and Clinical Results

• Dr. Peter Ghosh of Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney, Australia and Dr. Michael Whitehouse at the University of Adelaide in Australia studied the effect of emu oil on arthritis patients. There was 100% pain reduction within 14 days and 100% inflammation reduction within 17 days.


• Dr. Thom Leahey of the Arthritis Clinic in Ardmore, Oklahoma, performed a two-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of arthritis patients. The results revealed that 7 of the 12 emu oil users reported significant reduction of pain, morning stiffness, and swelling compared to 1 of the 8 placebo users.


• Chiropractor Dr. Headly of Colorado began using massage treatments in his practice. For him, “I do both massage and adjustments and the emu oil is used virtually from head to toe. People with chronic shoulder and knee problems get help from the adjusting, but the emu oil really does the final trick during the massage. I find it absolutely amazing.” For lower back pain, Dr. Headly explains, "I can get results using chiropractic alone on lower back pain. However, it seems that when I use the emu oil in conjunction with the chiropractic, the relief is quicker and the muscles stay relaxed longer, and therefore the treatment lasts longer."


• Chiropractor Ron Westbrook of Decatur, Texas also uses emu oil in his practice. "What I enjoy most about using the emu oil is that I have a lot more freedom of motion when massaging. The patient is more comfortable because I am not pulling on the skin . . . However, the most significant observation I have made is that the treatments with the oil last longer than without. the oil relaxes the muscles so well that the treatments hold for a longer period of time."


• As reported by the BBC, British marathoner Paula Radcliffe became “a keen exponent of emu oil after using it to speed up the healing of cuts and bruises sustained in a collision with a cyclist during a training session in 2003. This elixir helped Radcliffe get fit in time to win that year's London Marathon.

From The Research Labs

• Dr. Robert Nicolosi, Director of the Center for Health and Disease Research at the University of  Massachusetts-Lowell, has researched the transdermal properties of emu oil in animal trials. The results “demonstrated rather convincing evidence that emu oil has transdermal properties suggesting it may be utilized for transdermal delivery of compounds such as fat soluble nutrients, drugs or over-the-counter prescriptions.”


• Dr. Dan Rivlin Head of Dermatopathology at Miami's Mt. Sinai Hospital and Professor at the University of Miami Medical School and Julie Brumlik (me) have a patent on emu oil and lidocaine. It’s the only penetrating topical anesthesia that works anywhere on the body.


• Pearson Research and Development received a patent for a supplement of emu oil combined with a number of other components in the treatment of Alzheimer disease. The emu oil is used both for nutritional purposes and as a carrier for the other components.

From The Research Labs

Dr. Michael Holick, M.D, Ph.D., Professor of Medicine, Physiology and Dermatology at Boston University School of Medicine, conducted a study that compared emu oil and corn oil on mice after removing some of their hair.

"We found that there was about a 20% increase in DNA synthesis, which means that there was a 20% increase in the proliferative activity, or the growth activity of the skin in the animals that received (a processed emu oil), compared to the animals that received corn oil, " said Dr. Holick.

"We found that there was an enhancement in the growth activity of the hair follicles. So it gives us very good scientific indication that we were stimulating skin growth." They also discovered that "over 80% of hair follicles that had been asleep were woken up and began growing hair." He explained that hair follicles go through stages from resting to growth and back to sleep again, and that they awoke these hair follicles by stimulating them which indicates that it stimulates skin growth as well.

Clinical Results

• Dr. Dan Dean of Shepard Michigan (mentioned above) first used emu oil on his thoroughbred horse. (The results convinced him he should also use it on his human patients). His horse had picked up a salmonella infection and then developed an allergic reaction to IV steroids and antibiotics. The horse lost all its hair and much of its stamina. After a few applications, the horse welcomed the oil treatments. In a short amount of time the horse’s hair and stamina were back.


• Veterinarian Dr. Matthew Zimmer of Angola Indiana uses emu oil on pets and farm animals. He uses it mainly to accelerate wound healing and also for pain.
