Neem (Azadirachta indica) has powerful detoxification properties, which can be made use to purify blood and cure skin diseases like acne, psoriasis, eczema, dandruff and almost all dermatological problems. Neem's effectiveness in controlling all dermatological diseases is a subject of brisk researches in India, Germany and the USA.
Neem relives pain and inflammation. Neem oil is an important constituent of different ointments. Neem oil is also useful in treating ring worm, lice, scabies and athletes foot.
Neem oil is beneficial in curing dry skin, skin ulcers, wrinkles, warts and other dermatological conditions. Ayurvedic skin care soaps, lotions, ointments, etc make use of the powers of neem. Such skin care products have neem seed oil, neem leaf or bark extracts.
Young twigs of neem were also used to brush teeth, which ensured healthy teeth never attacked by germs or decay.
Acne causing bacteria are killed by neem. Boil some neem leaves in water and use the water to wash your body. This will kill germs and bacteria on your skin. When neem extract based soap is used for washing your body, it can reduce the instances of acne inflammation. However you need to either regularly wash your body with 'neem leaf boiled' water (after cooled, of course) or regular application of an ointment with neem extracts.
Eczema is another condition that responds well to neem leaf extract treatment. Eczema condition becomes milder with application of neem leaf extracts. Using an Ayurvedic soap, shampoo or ointment is enough to get the desired results in even the severe cases of eczema.
Neem also has application in Ayurveda internal medicine and that too in a variety of conditions.
