(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 28, 2008 ) Manassas, VA - Thunder Ridge Emu Products is proud to announce the use of 100% pure AEA Certified American emu oil in all of their 16 professional skin care products. Many may wonder why emu oil is valuable to skin care or how it works to promote healthy skin. The truth is that there are many
factors that stand behind why emu oil should be the number one skincare choice.

How Does Emu Oil Work?

* Triglyceride Lipid: Emu oil is almost 100% triglyceride lipid, a type of fatty compound that is also abundant in human skin lipids. Since emu and human lipids are almost identical, the absorption rate of emu oil into human skin is incredible!

* Oleic Acid: Emu oil is high in oleic acid, which increases its ability to carry compounds through the skin, thus hydrating the skin from the inside out.

* Antioxidants: Emu oil is packed with antioxidants which attack the free radicals we have in our bodies that accelerate the aging process.

* Omega Fatty Acids: One of the most important factors of emu oil is that it contains the essential fatty acids, Omega 3 and Omega 6, and the beneficial Omega 9. These components expedite healing effects on burns, stiff and swollen joints, chronic skin conditions, muscle pain and more. The Omega 3's have anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulant properties as well as other important health benefits. They reduce inflammation and can provide protection against cardiovascular disease, arthritis, skin conditions, depression and other mood-related disorders.

Omega 3 and Omega 6 interact with each other so the balance between them is vital for good health. Together they have an impact on inflammation in the body and all functions at a cellular level. Omega 6
also maintains healthy skin, hair and nails.

Omega 9 oils are monounsaturated and are found in olive oil. The monounsaturated oil is known to have beneficial health effects and may be necessary for healthy immune system functioning.

Emu oil contains a multitude of natural elements that are important to our bodies and are a good way to ensure you are getting essential nutrients for your good health inside and out. In conclusion, we should not be asking 'Why emu oil? but 'Why NOT emu oil?'.
