Neem, the “wonder tree of India,” is known in
Ayurveda as a detoxifier, and, in traditional use, it is considered a
multifaceted support for skin health. A cleanser and blood purifier,
dexterous neem supports clear and healthy skin and promotes general
well-being.
Neem has long been treasured in India for its many benefits, and all
parts of the tree are used to support various aspects of wellness. For
centuries, Indians have juiced neem leaves to achieve glowing skin,
chewed neem bark to clean their teeth, used neem leaves as a natural bug
repellent, and drank neem tea as a powerful tonic. Neem, in a testament
to its many uses, is commonly called the “friend and protector of the
Indian villager” or simply the “village pharmacy.” Maharishi Ayurveda Neem is
certified organic and non-GMO, vegetarian and cruelty-free, grown and
processed without toxic and harmful synthetic chemicals.
Neem leaf, increasingly found as an ingredient in pharmaceuticals and
cosmetics, is famous in the ancient Ayurvedic texts for having an
almost magical effect on the skin. Beneficial for all skin types,
traditional Ayurvedic remedies recommend utilizing neem’s purifying
qualities: this is done by applying a paste of crushed neem leaves
directly to problem skin.
Neem aids in cleansing deep toxins from the teeth and mouth.
Neem bark especially supports dental health; in fact, its most common
use is as a sort of natural, gnawable toothbrush. (See image below) Ayurdent,
a fluoride-free ayurvedic toothpaste, contains neem bark and is
extra-effective when you brush just before bed. It helps heal sore gums
and helps prevent tooth decay by strengthening the gums and teeth.
