Emu Oil is This Physician's ChoiceHundreds
of patients have visited Dr. Dan Dean of by Beth Silva ...continued from previous page Dean explains that the horse picked up a
Salmonella infection, was treated at the Michigan State University, but
developed an allergic reaction to all the IV steroids, antibiotics, etc.,
it received and subsequently lost all its hair and much of its stamina.
Knowing that emu oil had a reputation to stimulate skin and hair growth,
the doctor decided to give it a try on his favored horse. Ultra sensitive
to touch, The Rebalizer had to be stilled for the first few applications
of pure emu oil to his bare hide. But Dean says that after twice-a-day
applications for three days, the animal welcomed the employment of the
oil. Shortly after treatments began, his horse's health and hair returned!
Dean says that after researching the oil further, he began using it on
himself, his family and then patients, with incredible results.
The doctor utilizes the oil's moisturizing properties by compounding an
emu oil nasal spray and cough syrup formula for some of his patients.
"When cold and flu season starts, we'll use the oil on a minimum of
15 patients a day." he says. Of this he says, "Slowly we're getting
other physicians interested in the oil. It's a little hard to convince
doctors, but I don't push the emu oil on them, I let them come to me. Now
some are asking, What are you using? and Why did so-and-so heal so
fast?" An 80-year-old diabetic patient with gangrene of the toes
and a serious heel ulceration was recently referred to Dean. "The
surgeon who sent the patient down said it looked like they were going to
have to amputate the foot," relates the doctor. "But I suggested
that we first try the emu oil. And by using the emu oil we were able to
completely heal the ulceration on the heel and there's no gangrene in the
toes - they're just as pink as can be. The surgeon's comment was, 'It
looks like emu oil turned this thing around. We're not going to amputate.'
We used only pure oil in the treatment and it saved this gentlemen's
foot!" Dean is helping to spread the interest in
emu oil. He delivered the slide presentation "Wound Management With
Emu Oil" at the 1998 Annual American Emu Association Convention this July in San Antonio and relates
that he was recently approached by a drug company (that usually features a
discourse on one of their own products) to deliver a presentation on emu
oil to an all-doctor audience. He mentions that he has also been
petitioned by an alternative Medicine group out of Chicago to speak on emu
oil. To better serve individuals requesting the oil, Dean recently began
offering a line of several specially formulated and pretested emu oil
products for medicinal and cosmetic applications called "The Dean's
List." And this May the doctor
received a Humanitarian award for his continuing work in the field of
family practice, as well as a New Product Award for his product line from
the Award Committee for the International Hall of Fame, sponsored by the
Inventors Clubs of America, Inc. Through Rishada Emu Inc., Dan
currently has available six products which he says contain a high
percentage of emu oil and include a hand lotion, skin moisturizer, skin
tightener, body cleanser, shampoo, and 100 percent pure emu oil. "I'm
real excited about all our products and people's response to them is
amazing," says the doctor, who has additional emu oil products on
line. For more information on The Dean's List, contact Rishada Emu Inc. at (877) 246-3003 Reprinted with permission from Emu Today & Tomorrow
