Properties and applications of neem oil
The neem oil, whose popular name was historically given in India in honor of the goddess Neemari, is a vegetable oil obtained from the cold pressing of Azadirachta Indica seeds, belonging to the Meliaceae family; and is now known worldwide for its extraordinary properties and multiple applications.
In the seeds there is the greatest variety and concentration of substances with medicinal effects, although they are present in other parts of the tree (leaves, bark, wood, roots, fruit pulp, flowers).
This plant belongs to the Ayurvedic tradition, used for millennia for its antibiotic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiparasitic activity.
In India, even sparrows know this, and it is not just a saying! In fact, they add neem twigs and leaves to their nests, and analyses show the absence of many parasites usually present in these birds’ nests.
Neem oil for its application on the skin is very potent and concentrated and can be added in the amount of a few drops to basic natural creams or more delicate vegetable oils, such as sweet almond oil or jojoba oil.
Neem oil commonly sold is not suitable for internal use, therefore it cannot be ingested, but can be used for external or cosmetic applications, both on ourselves and on animals or plants. 

Properties and benefits of neem oil
The neem oil, as we have seen, is characterized by antiviral, antibacterial, antiparasitic, antiseptic, and antifungal properties, making its use suitable not only for our health and beauty care but also for the protection of plants and animals from parasite attacks. 
Neem oil, in fact, contains active principles capable of counteracting viruses, bacteria, fungi, as well as providing a moisturizing, regenerating, and restructuring action for tissues and is therefore effective, for example, on the most common dermatological conditions.
It can be present in herbal and natural cosmetic preparations such as toothpastes, soaps, skin creams, and scalp products.
The odor of pure neem oil can be rather pungent and unpleasant, and when strictly necessary, this problem can be solved by adding some essential oils that, besides providing fragrance, have properties suitable for the disorder you wish to treat or prevent.

Eudermic action: its content of vitamin E and essential fatty acids makes it suitable for the preparation of face and body creams with antioxidant and anti-aging power.

Anti-inflammatory action: due to the presence of prostaglandin inhibitors, neem oil resolves many gum conditions and for pyorrhea. Thanks to limonoids and catechins, potent inhibitors of acute inflammation mediators, neem is used in the treatment of pain from muscle strains, arthritis, rheumatism.  

Healing action: it is commonly used for psoriasis and eczema, as it hydrates and protects the skin on one hand; while on the other hand, it reduces inflammation and heals irritation, flaking, and lesions caused by these conditions. For this reason, it is used in cases of extensive burns, infected wounds, and to stimulate healing and tissue reconstruction.

Antibacterial and antiviral action: among the bacterial strains counteracted by neem oil are salmonella typhi and staphylococcus aureus. In particular, the latter is responsible for typical acne manifestations, characterized by abscesses and painful comedones. Staphylococcus aureus also contaminates many foods and causes secondary infections such as peritonitis, cystitis, meningitis. Many of its strains are resistant to penicillin and other specialized antibiotics. Historically, neem twigs were chewed (similar to how we chew gum today) every day by millions of Indians: today it is used in toothpaste that counteracts plaque formation and significantly whitens teeth, or even in the form of tincture with antiseptic properties. Neem has shown the best results against Herpes Virus (labial and body).

Antifungal action: effective against 14 types of skin fungi, neem oil, among others, inhibits Trichosporon (gastrointestinal tract infections) and Geotrichum (bronchial, lung, and mucous membrane infections). Greater efficacy and safety (no side effects) have been observed against Candida Albicans, infections caused by Trichophyton (to hair, skin/nails, athlete’s foot), Ringworm (caused by Epidermophyton).

Insect repellent action: neem oil is one of the natural remedies against insect bites, especially to counteract mosquitoes, especially during the summer period. Against scalp parasites (such as lice) and mites of scabies. Also for animals, it is an effective flea repellent and a completely ecological antiparasitic for plants, so much so that it is used in biological control against many agricultural pests, as it is a natural pesticide.
