How we get that precious all-natural rheumatic remedy, the marmot oil

With Europe's urbanites sadly storing away little-used summer cloths, Graubuenden's dear-hunters, while preparing their gear, must be grinning broadly about this mercilessly wet and early autumn.

A little-know fact of their soon to start local hunting season is that it provides the majority of marmots necessary for that sought after fat. To stretch through hybernation, Alpine marmots store up to 50 % of their body weight in fat.

Once rendered into oil, you end up with an all-natural, traditional remedy to effectively treat rheumatic illness, joint and muscle pains. And with robust scientific researchbacking up its healing properties (i.e. up to 80 mg corticoide per kilo, several fatty acides), there's little wonder why marmot oil has been used for ages as a precious, natural cortison.

These days, you don't even have to put up with the nose-straining old-fashioned rendering process any longer. Simpy order it online at Puralpina a local family business, infused with either warming or cooling herbal essences. The choice is yours.
