| What is it? Neem is clinically proven to be anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory. Neem has been shown to regulate the immune system, lower blood sugars, reduce fevers, fight gum disease, and act as a tonic for the heart. Despised by over 200 species of insects it is a safe and effective insecticide and bug repellent which is harmless to humans. Additionally, neem has been used historically to treat bacterial, fungal, and viral infections, and to boost the immune system. Widely available in India, neem products until recently were virtually absent from the American market, where the scientific validation gives them a competitive edge over many less proven products. Neem is derived from the Neem tree, a fast growing, umbrella shaped, evergreen tree belonging to the mahogany family. Neem has over 4500 hundred years of use in its native India, where it is referred to as the "village pharmacy". Numerous scientific and clinical studies validate neem's many uses.
