Petroleum Jelly heals

Petroleum Jelly helps speed healing of cuts and scrapes.  Petroleum jelly is a by product of the oil drilling process.  It was first discovered to have curative properties in the late 1800's when iron workers on oil rigs noticed that cuts on their hands healed faster if they applied this petroleum jelly.


It you have a cut that needs healing -- try applying a coating of petroleum jelly.


In a way this makes sense, because petroleum itself is the remains of ancient one celled plants and animals that have aged and turned into crude oil.  The petroleum jelly preserves the "living essence" of these ancient life forms and condenses it into a usable product that helps heal your injuries (what ever THAT really means).

Try it yourself and see.  Petroleum Jelly speeds up the healing process.

Vaseline and Carmex are the brand names of two products that contain petroleum jelly.
