The Neem is an Indian tree attracting worldwide interest. Mahatma Gandhi was one of Neem's strongest advocates: he led prayers under a Neem tree and every day ate Neem leaf chutney. Ayurvedic tradition, supported by modern science, shows that:
1. Neem, which purifies the blood and detoxifies the body, is good for maintaining healthy skin, and in particular, for treating eczema, athlete's foot, candida and acne.
2. It has antibacterial activity against staphylococcus aureus, a common source of food poisoning and urinary infections, and salmonella.
3. It has an antiviral effect on smallpox, hepatitis B and herpes.
4. Its antiseptic qualities help to prevent periodontal diseases (it is a common ingredient in toothpaste).
5. It has anti-inflammatory activity comparable to that of aspirin (by inhibiting prostaglandins).
6. It exerts immuno-modulatory activity on Th-1 lymphocytes and is considered a potent stimulant of the immune system.
7. It has a powerful hypoglycaemic effect, beneficial both to those suffering from Type I diabetes (insulin-dependent) and Type II (known as fat diabetes), through as yet unidentified mechanisms.
8. Studies on guinea pigs and rabbits show it has a significant and dose-dependent hypotensive effect.
