What are the medicinal properties of neem and how to use it? - #12571
I have always heard that neem is a powerful medicinal plant, but I want to understand exactly what its health benefits are. What are the medicinal properties of neem, and how can it be used for different health issues? I’ve read that neem is great for skin problems like acne and eczema. How should it be applied—should I use neem leaves directly, or is neem oil better? Also, does drinking neem juice really help in purifying the blood, or is it too strong for daily consumption? Another thing—some people say that neem is useful for diabetes and digestion. Can eating neem leaves on an empty stomach help in controlling blood sugar? If so, how many leaves should be taken daily? I also came across information saying that neem has antibacterial and antifungal properties. Does it work for infections or oral health? Some people use neem sticks as a toothbrush—does that really help in preventing gum disease? If anyone has been using neem regularly for health benefits, please share your experience! What are the best ways to use neem for skin, digestion, and immunity? Are there any side effects of consuming neem in excess?
