HEALING THE BURNS, COMPLETELY!
Skin quite literally “holds everything together”. In the event of a burn injury to the skin, the body goes in a state of shock or trauma, the
trauma being both physical and psychological. Treatment of a burn basically focuses on two things, prevention of infection and
closing/healing of the wound. The healing is mostly natural and takes its own course. Apart from the unbearable pain, the sign of a
severe burn stays for life. This creates a deep psychological impact on the patient who often finds it difficult to come out of the
psychologically devastating event. So much so that a study indicates that the post operative suicide rate among burns patients is
close to 90%.

Mother Nature has provided us with a wonder cure for burns in the form of egg yolk oil.
This cure has been re-discovered in the form of OLEOVA by VAV Life Sciences Pvt Ltd, an
Indian company headquartered in Mumbai. Established in 2003, VAV believes that nature
provides us with an abundance of resources to aid our own healing. Equipped with
modern state of art R&D facility, VAV is growing progressively in the field of nutraceuticals.
Currently the company exports its products to more than 38 countries. VAV boasts of a wonder cure for
burns in the form of OLEOVA which is egg oil extracted from yolk of chicken eggs. OLEOVA is rich in triglycerides, essential fatty
acids like Omega 3 (DHA) & Omega 6, cholesterol and antioxidants like lutein and xanthophylls.
HEALING THE WOUND, FASTER with oleova!
Skin is a lipid membrane and is composed of sub units of fats called fatty acids. These fatty acids are essential for skin
regeneration and healing. The fatty acid profile of egg yolk oil matches very closely to that of skin and hence it integrates well into the
skin and aids faster re-epithilisation. In addition, egg oil has the essential fatty acids like the Omega 3 (DHA) and Omega 6 acids,
which are not produced in the body in sufficient amount and have to be supplied externally. There are a very few natural sources of
the essential fatty acids, egg oil being one of the richest. Because of cholesterol, it is absorbed to a much greater extent.
In a study conducted at University of Leipzig, clinical healing rate with egg oil and silver sulfadiazine was comapred among second
degree burns patients. It was observed that the wound healing was 50% in 7 days complete within 2 weeks in case of egg oil while
it was only 70% in two weeks for silver sulfadiazine.
Another study conducted by Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Iran proved that wound size decreased significantly with complete
re-epithilisation of the skin in the egg oil treated group of rats inflicted with third degree burns.
Oleova GUARDs AGAINST INFECTION
Skin guards us from infection by millions of pathogenic bacteria present in the environment. A burn injury to the skin breaks the
dermis and exposes the inner membranes. This makes them prone to infection. All the burn medications focus on preventing any
further infection as they incorporate many anti bacterial agents.
Egg oil has a potent anti-bacterial effect which has been well documented. In the study conducted at University of Leipzig, it was
found that upon treatment with Egg Oil there was no growth of gram-negative bacteria and the wounds on the 7th day were more
sterile than on the day of accident.
Another independent study proved that egg oil has anti-microbial effect detectable on both bacteria and fungi. Growth of bacteria
like E.coli and Staphylococcus aureus was decreased and that of the fungi like Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger stayed
constant over the tested time of 28 days.

Case Studies
A burn injury scars the psyche of the patient. The pain might go and the wound may heal but the sight of scar is a constant reminder
of the trauma for the patient. Egg oil has the power to make the scars go forever.
In a study conducted at Municipal Hospital Offenbach by Prof. Dr. Kitschke scar healing was studied in 23 patients post surgery. The
treatment with Egg Oil was done daily on the scars.There was no side effect in any patient. The scar development was controlled to
a great extent. In comparsion with the applied control substance a series of significant characteristic differences were found on the
side of the scar treated with Egg Oil. These differences not only affected the scar tissue but in part also the immediate surrounding
area.
Oleova is SAFE AND NATURAL
Egg oil is a completely natural product. It is well tolerated on the skin. A study conducted at the Institute for experimental
Dermatology, University Witten-Herdecke by Professor Tronnier proved that egg oil caused no irritation to the skin and improved the
skin surface in terms of increasing suppleness, smoothness and decreasing scaliness and wrinkles.
VAV uses a proprietary technology for producing OLEOVA. This technology preserves the therapeutic properties of egg oil in
OLEOVA. The extraction process is a cold process that does not involve the use of any solvents or heat. This process also
eliminates all the proteins and this makes it safe for use by people who are allergic to eggs. Hence, OLEOVA is completely safe to
use.
A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS
An accident caused as severe injury to a nine month old boy. The injury covered 4 % of the body surface of the boy. He was treated
with egg oil and re-epithilisation was observed as early as 3rd day with complete healing within 7 days and no scars in 4 weeks.
