DESCRIPTION
Neem is one of Ayurveda’s most celebrated herbs for the skin. Its bitter flavor helps cool excess heat in the body. Neem purifies the blood, supports proper digestion, promotes healing, and destroys toxins. It also has a strong affinity for the lymph. When used as an herbal alternative to toothpaste, the bitter and cleansing properties of neem support oral health. Neem is also commonly used as an organic insecticide on garden plants, or applied topically as a flea repellant for cats and dogs. Neem’s light, dry qualities help counter heaviness and stagnation in the body by encouraging proper metabolism and maintaining healthy blood glucose levels. It is often taken internally to foster a state of balance in the liver, pancreas, and GI tract.
