Crocodile oil is extracted from the fatty tissues of crocodiles and has been used both as preventative and a treatment for a number of human ailments and conditions for many years and across numerous cultures, including Ancient Egypt.
Crocodiles have the strongest immune system in the world. Scientists have discovered that deep wounds on crocodiles inflicted during battles with other crocodiles rarely get infected. In fact, the wounds heal rapidly even in contaminated swampy conditions. Crocodile oil has been analyzed by the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) and the results show that it is rich in Omega 3, 6 & 9 which are known to have beneficial properties for the body and skin. Other beneficial properties discovered are a number of rare essential fatty acids which were found in a high concentration.
Crocodiles are farmed for their meat same as cattle and chickens. The meat is low in cholesterol and is regarded as a delicacy in restaurants around the world.

Crocodile oil is an ingredient not a medicine and it has been used as a natural remedy for centuries as a skin healer in many countries, but is only now available due to extensive crocodile farming worldwide. It is reputed that Cleopatra used crocodile oil to enhance her beauty, and that internationally well-known brands of skin care products also contain the same essential oils in their anti aging products.
