Default Re: How good is emu oil for burns?
According to the Blurb it is good for sunburn and "early blistering". Personally having butter used on a burn when I was a kid I would NEVER EVER put anything oily on a burn again - increase in pain around 400% {{{{{ouch!}}}}}}

BUT there has been a lot of talk about Emu oil as a good skin treatment. I do know though that Emu does taste good!!
