About Neem
Neem is called "the village pharmacy" in India — every part of the tree has been used medicinally for over 4,000 years. Modern research has confirmed powerful antimicrobial, antiviral, antifungal and insecticidal properties. Neem oil is now a significant agricultural biopesticide. Neem is also central to Indian oral hygiene — neem twigs have been used as toothbrushes for millennia.
