Just found this on the Healt aid site. Now I'm thinking of trying the Emu Oil see if iy makes any difference. Does anyone know if it is ethically produced/obtained?


"Used for untold centuries by the aboriginal peoples of Australia, this unusual natural product, which is now highly popular with modern Australians, is rich in nutrients and is remarkable in that it contains a full spectrum of Essential Fatty Acids.
Emu Oil is especially high in Omega 6 fatty acids, which are significant in the maintenance of healthy skin and joints and contains large amounts of Linolenic acid, known for its anti-inflammatory and analgesic qualities. Emu Oil is also rich in Omega 3 fatty acids, which are considered beneficial to both cardiovascular and skin health.
Emu Oil is an excellent, odourless moisturiser and is a natural by-product of the Emu meat industry in Australia, which if not utilised, would otherwise go to waste. The Emus are raised on a chemical-free, vegetarian diet in free-range conditions."

thanks branster , will give it a go

[Branster]

i hope it'll work!
from all the products I've used so far, this was the one with the best results. it doesn't get rid of them unfortunatelly (nothing seems to) but it makes them less visible. you'd have to use it all the time though. I still have my 100ml bottle and bought it over 1 year ago so it does last a long time.

Bio Oil is meant to be good, but I've found Aloe Vera lotion to be brilliant. It has to be a decent strength though, say 1% or 2%.

Really NDP??? I've checked my bottle of Aloe Vera gel but it doesn't give the strenght. Or should iy be a cream? You can tell I'm desperate...
Have used Bio Oil but didn't notice any difference
