Key Active Ingredients:
1. MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane) MSM has received national recongnition from actor James Coburn who reported very effective pain relief from Rheumatoid Arthritis by taking MSM pills. Coburn and the two doctors who co-authored The Miracle of MSM-The Natural Solution for Pain, Drs. Stanley Jacob and Ronald Lawrence, have been on Good Morning America, numerous talk shows, radio and televison shows, and in printed publications. Simply stated, MSM is a natural occurring sulfur in plants with its origins in the Sea. With evaporation into the atmosphere, it falls to the ground and infiltrates our plants via rain. Doctors Jacob and Lawrence report their findings for MSM to relieve: Chronic Back Pain - Tendonitis and Bursitis Chronic Headaches - Carpal Tunnel SyndromeMuscle Pain - Allergy Symptoms - Arthritis - TMJ (The Mouth Hinge Near Ears) - Athletic Injuries - Post-Traumatic Pain and Inflammation - Fibromyalgia - Heartburn How? MSM provides major pain relief through the following actions: Inhibition of the impulses along nerve fibers It is an analgesic and relives pain Lessening of Inflammation Reduction of Muscle spasm Increasing of blood supply It passes through the cellular membranes of the body and the skin (thus effective in a rub) Relif from constipation - Softening of scar tissue

2. Emu OilEmu Oil contains natural anti-inflammatory, healing properties with a wide range of omega oils that are known to facilitate good health. It contains a complete source of essential fatty acids. Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's) are fats that humans cannot manufacture or synthesize. We must obtain them from our diet. Like vitamins and minerals they are essential to the body's functions. An inadequacy of fatty acids is one of the most widespread nutritional deficiency among modern humans. This represents a serious potential health risk for children in particular since fatty acids are so crucial for proper growth and development. Incredibly, this amazing oil contains omega 3,6,9 essential fatty acids and is a powerful skin moisturizer and possesses strong anti-inflammatory properties among many other health benefits.
Emu Oil is an important source of EFA's (essential fatty acids) that help provide the body with what it needs to manufacture cell membranes. An inadequacy of fatty acids is one of the most widespread nutritional deficiency among modern humans. This represents a serious potential health risk for children in particular since fatty acids are so crucial for proper growth and development.
The primary function of EFA's is the production of prostaglandins, hormone-like substances that regulate many of the body functions, including heart rate, blood pressure, blood clotting, fertility and conception.
Prostaglandins also play a role in immune function. Because of the many immune disorders, prostaglandins both encourage the body to fight infection and prevent the inflammatory response from getting out of control.
Without Essential Fatty Acids the body's immune response will not be efficient.
There are many other benefits Emu Oil contains. Among them: - Hyper-oxygenated properties. Emu Oil effectively draws the blood supply to topically applied areas thus accelerating circulation. This speeds up healing time for wounds and is helpful for anti-aging. This makes it ideal for skin creams, massage creams and muscle salves.
- Anti-bacterial. Emu Oil has shown anti-bacterial properties.
- Hypoallergenic. Emu Oil is ideal for people concerned about skin conditions or reactions.
- Non-comedogenic. Emu Oil does not clog pores.
3. Aloe Vera---4,000 year old plantAloe gel is perhaps the most widely recognized herbal remedy in the United States today, used to relieve thermal burn and sunburn, promote wound healing, and moisturize and soften skin. Everyone who uses it seems convinced that it works, and its millennia of use for the same conditions support that assumption. In addition, recent research suggests that aloe gel can help stimulate the body's immune system.
The gel comprises more than seventy-five compounds, including polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates), steroids, organic acids, enzymes, antibiotic agents, amino acids, and minerals. One enzyme found in aloe gel has been suggested as the primary component responsible for the gel's ability to heal burns.
In relatively small concentrations together with the Gel fraction they provide Analgesic, Antibacterial, Antifungal & Antiviral activity. - Helps breakdown of food sugars and fats aiding digestion & enhancing nutrient absorbtion
- Wound Healing & Anti-inflammatory
- Thought to provide penetrating power in Aloe vera skin preparations and may act as a carrier for other components
- Anti-inflammatory agents. Lupeol also possesses antiseptic and analgesic properties
- Anti-inflammatory action
- Anti-viral, immune modulating activity of Acemannan
4. Feverfew (Chrysanthemum parthenium) Medicinal Properties: Anti-inflammatory, vasodilatory, relaxant, digestive bitter, uterine stimulant. Uses in Folklore: Feverfew has been used for centuries for treating migraine headaches. In recent years, it has regained its deserved reputation as a primary remedy for migraines. It is also reported that feverfew inhibits the release of two inflammatory substances thought to be the culprits of painful swollen joints, characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis. The anti-inflammatory effects of feverfew are cumulative. Don't expect one cup of tea to banish arthritis or migraines forever. Herbs work slowly. If taken faithfully, you can expect good results within two weeks to a month and excellent results by the end of two months. Reports state that, when taken as directed, migraines can go into remission. Feverfew has been used for centuries with no ill effects.
5. MarigoldIt has been asserted that a Marigold flower, rubbed on the affected part, is an admirable remedy for the pain and swelling caused by the sting of a wasp or bee. A lotion made from the flowers is most useful for sprains and wounds.
6. Willow BarkWillow Bark has been employed for thousands of years as a reliable painkiller. It is used to relieve the pain of headaches, migraines, backache, nerve pain, menstrual cramps, toothache, and the pain of minor injuries. The analgesic actions of Willow Bark may be slower-acting than synthetic aspirin, but the results last longer, as the painkilling compounds remain at stable levels in the bloodstream longer (usually for several hours) than synthetic aspirin products. Unlike aspirin products, Willow Bark has no affect on blood platelets and does not increase bleeding, nor will it irritate the lining of the stomach, common side effects of aspirin.
Willow Bark is an astringent, cooling herb that reduces fever, increases perspiration and cools the body. It is good for minor feverish illnesses, chills, colds, etc.
As an anti-inflammatory, Willow Bark has been used to relieve the painful inflammation and joint pain of rheumatism, arthritis, gout, neuralgia, osteoarthritis, osteroporitic and lower back pain, and the inflammatory stages of autoimmune diseases. It may also be an effective alternative for people who cannot tolerate non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs.
Willow Bark is an antiseptic.
