Neem oil is pressed from the seeds of the neem tree, also known as “ the wonder tree from India “. It contains a high level of antioxidants and is rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, making this ancient and exotic oil a highly efficient ingredient in hair and skin care products. Neem oil rejuvenates skin; combats bothersome signs of aging and skin afflictions- such as eczema, psoriasis, even acne! Immediate results are noticed when applied to hair and scalp, or used in a shampoo- silky, shiny, stronger hair, seemingly over night.
Indians also call this tree ” the village pharmacy “, and have limitless faith in its abilities. Neem is used for skin care and skin disorders, as a natural insect repellent and pesticide, to relieve dry and itchy scalp, dandruff, the symptoms of scalp psoriasis, as well as for encouraging hair growth.
Neem oil shampoo for dogs keeps fleas, ticks, mange mites and any other annoying biting insects away, and generally promotes a shiny coat and healthy problem free skin ( just like using neem products on your own hair and skin does ).
The neem tree has been used in Ayurveda for thousands of years, described in prime text as ” that which keeps all diseases at bay ” and “ the reliever of disease” (around 75% of Ayurvedic remedies contain some form of neem! ) . The leaves, bark, roots, fruit, seed kernels and seed oil are all used in therapeutic preparations for both internal and topical use. Presented here is a short video, a concise compilation of its wondrous properties and uses, just to get a bit more familiar with this amazing species of evergreen:
