Neem Oil [Organic]

Description

Organic Neem Oil

This pure, natural Organic Neem Oil is cold pressed from the fruit and seeds of the Neem tree.

Neem is a tropical evergreen, native to India. It also grows in Southeast Asia and Africa.

In India, the twigs of the Neem tree are used as toothbrushes, and the oil is used for remedial massage.

Its use for animals is extensive: repelling lice and mites, as an antifungal and for de-worming purposes.

Organic Neem Oil contains a good number of beneficial compounds, including essential fatty acids and antioxidants. It is recognised for its immune supporting benefits, owing to its antiviral, antibacterial and antioxidant actions.

All of these constituents mean that Neem Oil is deeply beneficial for supporting healthy skin. But, as you read on, you will learn that Neem Oil is of profound benefit to humans and animals in many different ways.

Neem Oil is a very pungent oil, which is not to everyone’s taste.

The traditional health benefits of Organic Neem Oil are numerous. The use of Neem Oil was adopted by Traditional Chinese Medicine, and within the Ayurvedic Medicinal Healing System, which is still practised in India, today.

Organic Neem Oil For Skincare

Organic Neem Oil has been relatively well researched in the medical literature, revealing many benefits for the skin.

A recent study outlines the benefit of Organic Neem Oil for the treatment of acne, and for preventing its reoccurrence.

The neem plant, Azadirachta indica, a member of the Meliaceae family, produces an oil that is recognized to have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory characteristics, as well as the capacity to strengthen the immune system. This offers a helpful justification for the potential topical management of acne and help to stop lesions from returning, leaving the skin healthy. While some oils are only non-comedogenic and will not clog pores (which can result in acne), others actually have natural therapeutic capabilities that can lessen the signs of acne and possibly prevent future breakouts. Neem oil is one of these oils, and it has been used for many years to treat skin issues including acne.²

The same clinical study goes on to conclude:

Neem oil is not only able to manage acne but also prevent the future possibility of melanoma.²
