10. Side Effects
Emu oil has very few documented side effects. A small percentage of users experience some skin irritation with topical use, which usually turns out to be an allergic reaction. Before applying the oil in full, test a small portion of the skin and watch for signs of a reaction. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult their primary care provider before ingesting emu oil.
