Walkabout Emu Oil

Emu Oil (Vitamin K2) - Grass Fed

"...one of nature's richest sources of vitamin K-2…" - Vita K laboratory

The emu is a grandiose, flightless bird native to Australia. It has the unique capability of storing nutrition and energy in its fat for when it's needed most: during drought, famine and reproduction phases. Considered traditional food, emu oil provided the Aboriginal Australians with essential nutrients while living in some of the harshest conditions on earth.*

We're continuing this ancient tradition by partnering with Walkabout Health Products to provide you with a premium, grass fed Emu Oil that can be taken as a supplement.

Emu Oil is rendered from the bird's life-sustaining fat. Our rendering method is via filtering in a gravity system, with nothing added or detracted from the oil. The genetics of the emu, the feed, husbandry and proprietary process separate our traditional Emu Oil from the commercially produced oils.

This is reflected in the high levels of natural vitamin K-2 (MK-4), as well as the conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), omega 3, 6 and 9 and vitamin E and that remain intact after processing.* Our Emu Oil also contains stable saturated fats and levels of vitamin E that protect the oil from oxidizing (rancidity).*

Contained in an amber glass jar, our Emu Oil is gentle on the tummy, with no burping or aftertaste. And it's registered with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia.

Tested and true for vitamin K-2!

For those seeking therapeutic levels of vitamin K-2 to accompany the high levels of vitamin A and D-3 in Rosita EVCLO (Extra Virgin Cod Liver Oil), there's no better choice than Walkabout Health's pure Australian Emu Oil.* Both oils have nothing added or taken away, the vitamins are in their natural food form just as nature intended.  

Emu oil supports bone health and is said to be anti-inflammatory.* 

And we've tested our Emu Oil for your peace of mind:

"Walk About Health Products authentic Emu Oil is one of nature's richest sources of vitamin K-2 in the preferred form of MK-4 (Menatetrenone). Liquid emu oil provides an easy way to customize your dosage and daily intake."  - Vita K laboratory

In the past, we at Corganic have always recommended pairing EVCLO with extra virgin butter oil for the high levels of vitamin K-2.* But with no testing facilities that specialized in vitamin K-2, it was hard to ascertain the exact amounts of vitamin K-2 in various products. All of that changed when Vita K, based in the Netherlands, became the world premier lab for the testing of vitamin K levels in food.*

Corganic sent samples of extra virgin butter oil, ghee, Emu Oil and even Rosita EVCLO and Ratfish Liver Oil for testing to Vita K. The fish oils predictably had very little vitamin K-2. We were surprised that ghee and butter oil had similar levels (which were higher than most foods). What really shocked us was the fact that emu oil was head and shoulders higher in vitamin K-2 compared to any other food tested!

Here's what the independent tests revealed:

• Walkabout Health Emu Oil: 15 mcg/tsp of menaquinone-4 (vitamin K-2)*
• Extra virgin butter oil: 1.26 mcg/tsp of menaquinone-4 (vitamin K-2)*

Our purebred, grass fed emus

We'd also like to note that Walkabout Health only uses birds that are genetically pure and kept separated on the farms, where they thrive on large grassy pastures. All emus in the rest of the world come from inferior zoo stock. Australia banned exportation of Emus in the 1960s, and no one outside of Australia has access to these ancient genotypes.

While Walkabout Health was studying the emu and maintaining the purity of the breed, others were breeding for "big birds," trying to increase the amount of meat and oil per bird. What they produce is an inconsistent quality of oil. One of the problems is mixing genotypes of the birds, as many emu farmers are still unaware that there are different genotypes.

Storage/Dosage

Storage:

Store refrigerated.

Dosage:

1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon daily. May also be taken with EVCLO.

Sensitive Individuals:

Adults/nursing moms: Emu oil is very rich and fatty. Begin with just a small portion on the tip end of a spoon (1/8 - 1/4 tsp) per serving daily or as needed. Emu oil can be taken with Rosita Extra Virgin Cod Liver Oil (EVCLO) liquid or softgels.

Children/toddlers: 1/8th tsp every other day (may also be taken with small amounts of EVCLO). Infants: begin with just drops every other day or as prescribed by a healthcare professional. May also be mixed with tiny amounts of EVCLO and given two or three times a week.

Important: The supplements we carry are premium, pure and potent. Therefore, it’s critically important to start slowly, with a lower dosage than recommended. For example, a very small dose every other day, or even once a week, until you can determine how the supplement affects your body and what dose feels right for you.

Frequently asked questions

Are there any known allergies?

We are unaware of any known allergy. If you have a sensitivity to poultry or fats you should check with your health care professional.

Why do you leave your emu oil unadulterated?

We believe that nature is stronger than any human design.

The ingredients within foods work synergistically; they work as teams to feed cells. Isolated and synthetic vitamins contain only a fraction of the vitamin complexes and lack the cofactors and micronutrients found in nature.

Whole food and whole food supplements provide all these synergists, cofactors, vitamin complexes and energy that normally occur in food and make them work at their optimal. This cannot be duplicated in a laboratory.

At Walkabout Health Products great care has been taken to preserve all of the life supporting nutrients and life supporting components of this powerful synergy. Our Emu Oil is assembled and balanced by nature. We do not add anything to the oil, nor do we take anything out.

Our oil is a warm-blooded source of: Omega 3, 6, 7 and 9, vitamins A, D3, E, Rich in vitamin K2 MK-4, AA, ATP and CLA.

Why is Walkabout Emu Oil the highest quality emu oil?

Three things that make our product superior:

1. Genotype of the birds
2. Feed and husbandry
3. Traditional refining methods

Research into the benefits of Emu Oil began in the 1980's in Australia. High biological activity was found in the oil from birds living in the wild.  This research triggered interest in emu farmers to replicate that biological activity in farm raised birds. It is from these conscientious farmers that we source our oil.

From the 1980's to present day, our emu farmers have been doing their own research through universities, hospitals, and on their farms. This research has demonstrated that the genotype of the bird is paramount in producing the highest quality oil.

While our farmers were studying the Emu, others were breeding for "big birds," trying to increase the amount of meat and oil per bird. By breeding different genotypes, the result was an inconsistent quality of oil.

If you bred a Thoroughbred to a Shetland pony would you still expect to win the Kentucky Derby? That is of course a joke, but you get the meaning. You may still get a horse out of the breeding but it will have lost the characteristic of incredible speed.

Our birds are genetically selected and separated on the farms—no crossbreeding! All emus in the rest of the world come from inferior zoo stock. Australia banned exportation of emus in the 1960s. No one outside of Australia has access to these base genotypes.

For ten years, our farmers make trips into "emu country" to learn to emulate the birds natural feed. They studied emus in their natural environment, analyzed their droppings and their dietary habits. They found that correct feed significantly increased the biological activity of the oil. Our farmers' emus are fed in accordance with this important research. The birds are farmed on virgin soils in Australia and roam in large pastures. No GMO feed, antibiotics, growth hormones, pesticides or chemicals of any kind are allowed on the farms.

The years of research would have counted for little without the correct refining method.  Katta, an Aboriginal Elder, shared with our farmers the traditional method for refining the oil. Combining this tradition, with science, has been the guide to preserving our Emu Oil's natural characteristics. It leaves the oil unadulterated, the way nature intended.

When techniques such as stripping agents, deodorizers, bleaches, high temperatures, molecular distillation and winterizing are used it results in loss of efficacy and destroys its natural synergy.

At Walkabout Health Products we take a holistic approach to our Emu Oil and treat it as a highest quality food supplement.
