The Miracle Oil


 
I had never heard of emu oil until I joined the breast cancer discussion board. Women who were undergoing radiation treatments were recommending it for moisturizing their skin.

I thought, "why not?" and when the doctor cleared it for use, I ordered a bottle from Amazon.com. The area that I used the oil on, even the area of the tumor that received the radiation boost never burnt. It got a deep tan color but it never burned, and the technicians kept saying how well my skin was doing compared to other people's.

The area that did get a little scorched and painful was the area under my armpit. I simply did not realize how high the radiation went and did not start applying emu oil there until a week or two into the treatment. But I kept gritting my teeth and applying emu oil, and miraculously, I never blistered ... the blackened skin just rubbed off, and beautiful new skin emerged!

When I was done with my radiation treatments in October last year, I started massaging the oil into my scalp and on my non-existent eyebrows. My hair came back much quicker and more evenly than I had expected. And it came back fuller than before. I am willing to give emu oil the credit. After all the crap I had to go through ... I'll take the extra hair.

And now that my hair is looking healthy and growing well, I am using the emu oil as a facial moisturizer. Two drops into the palm of your hand is all you need to oil your entire face. I am using coconut oil as a body moisturizer.

I just ordered my second bottle from Amazon.com and it arrived in a very timely manner from the supplier in North Carolina. I don't think that the $23.10 I paid for the bottle is too much considering that it will last me almost a year.

I am sharing this information because all those women shared it with me ... if it helps another person, then it will be worth it.
