One of my concerns would be possibly triggering pancreatitis, due to the oil being of animal origin.

I read alot on the site but could not find if Emu oil is a medium or long chain Fatty Acid... I'll assume long chain (LCFA) and are most oils. Coconut Oil is a MCFA and is metabolized differently, and actually helps the pancreas and keeps insulin levels more stable.

Plus I like the fact that CO comes from a plant, and I purchase it from a 'Green" grower. Waiting for the day I can go completely vegetarian...
