From the Manufacturer:
World Emu emu oil gelcaps are naturally rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, the essential fatty acids (EFA's) necessary to sustain human life. Yet as essential as EFA's are, our bodies can not produce them. They must come from external sources, the most obvious being diet. World Emu Gelcaps are the preferred EFA source when a normal dietary intake is EFA deficient.
The essential fatty acids found in World Emu Gelcaps play an important role on many biological functions, including:
Immune cell function
Inflammatory responses
All organ systems
Smooth muscle activity
Circulatory and Cardiovascular activity
Neurological functions
