Everyday we get emails from folks all around the world wanting to learn about Neem, searching for the best Neem products, wanting to find ways to naturally heal health problems, finding alternatives to the mainstream health and beauty products or how they can use Neem for their pets and even gardening.
There are so many uses of Neem and so we've created a 'Ask The Neem Queen' forum to share with you the questions that we've gotten to help others learn about the many benefits of Neem, and how to use it in your every day routines.
Have your own question for the Neem Queen? ASK NOW!
What products do I need to take to keep me from getting a cold or the flu this winter? This is a great question because usually when one person catches an illness bug...everyone in the house gets it. The goal is to get everyone healthier so no one gets sick! This is where adding neem to your daily wellness routine really shines! My suggestion is to start with the Neem Leaf Capsules. Take two Neem Leaf Capsules every day with your breakfast or when you take your supplements. Neem is gentle and works in harmony with your digestive and immune systems.
Take your neem capsules every day so it is always circulating throughout your body systems. You will begin to notice over time that your sleep, digestion, mental clarity, and overall sense of well-being will improve. The changes in your health will be gradual and consistent...you will simply start feeling a bit better day by day. Feeling confident in your health is easy when neem is included in your daily wellness routine.
I love the fall scent of Spicy Nice - Is this available all year long or just in the fall season? Spicy Nice is one of our favorites too! Over the years our bodies have become intolerant of artificial fragrances so we are unable to enjoy most "fall scented" items, even though we love them! Well, Spicy Nice soap is not only available year round but is scented with pure essential oils and cinnamon leaf ONLY! The oat powder makes it very soothing to anyone with dry skin or rashes and coconut, karanja and palm oils cleanse and hydrate. This soap is a year round winner in our book!
Does White Linen Soap work well for Skin Rashes? Eczema? Irritations? White Linen Soap contains multiple different oils that all work in conjunction to sooth itchy, irritated skin. Neem oil, coconut oil and karanja oil come together to cleanse the skin while providing a moisture barrier. Coconut has healing properties that soothe eczema patches. Hemp oil is also found in this soap and is packed full of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids which reduce inflammation and allow the body to heal. Flax oil and oat powder are added for additional calming properties. This cleansing bar is absolutely ideal and beneficial for anyone experiencing skin rashes, eczema or skin irritations! We would recommend following up with a Neem cream, depending on what symptoms are being experienced.
What is the difference between Body Guard Original and Body Guard Plus Cleansing Bars? Which is better? The difference between these two cleansing bars is that the “Plus” bar contains activated Neem Charcoal, and the Original bar contains Hemp Oil. We wouldn’t really describe one as “better” than the other. Both of these bars are extremely beneficial and used in different circumstances. Both body guard bars are formulated specifically to help those who love the outdoors, and need maximum protection from bugs and the invisible pathogens that can cause skin irritation and illness.
The activated charcoal in the Body Guard Plus is produced by pyrolysis, and is a 100% negative carbon product of a renewable source of food and energy. Activated charcoal has been used to adsorb toxins for centuries, and this soap with neem resin has been used by teens with acne to individuals with sun-damaged skin. Like all neem oil soap, our cleansing bar with neem resin is packed with antioxidants to help protect the body’s largest organ from the environmental toxins we’re exposed to every day.
The dark brown color of both of these cleansing bars reveals one of three heavy hitting key ingredients: Neem Bark, Activated Charcoal and Neem Resin! The combination of Neem Bark, Karanja and Peppermint essential oils act as a triple threat to organisms that try to feed or live on or in your skin. Body Guard repels the following blood feeding insects: head lice, bed bugs, flies, gnats, ticks, and fleas. This is the perfect soap to guard your skin while enjoying the outdoors.
Body Guard with Activated Charcoal and Resin, is the one soap to have on hand for all your outdoor activities. We have designed Body Guard with the whole family in mind, even the family dog! Everyone will enjoy clean, fresh and protected skin while bugs, and other irritations leave or die. Body Guard Fungal Fighter is serious protection to have on your side for worry free outdoor fun.
Body Guard with Activated Charcoal and Resin, is also a great choice for anyone who suffers allergies to store bought detergent/bar soaps. This special formulation is gentle on skin but, ready for a fight to rid your skin of unwelcome bugs, virus, fungus and bacteria
Why does all-natural soap & shampoo not lather? HI there! We can only speak for OUR all-natural soap and shampoo, and in doing so we are happy to say that our soap DOES lather, and quite well! Our soap is free of synthetic attractants and detergents so the lather may not be what you’re used to if you’ve been using conventional/commercial soaps. These soaps use detergents (extremely harsh chemicals) that are very inexpensive and serve no purpose other than creating thick, foamy lather which is not necessary to get clean. The Neem Queen has formulated all of her products to contain more of the essential oils and less of the chemical compounds to give you a soap that will truly clean and nourish your skin, minus all the bad stuff!
The foaming hand soaps come out naturally foaming, due to the formulation and the dispensing bottle. The cleansing bars may need to be rubbed against a loofa or washcloth to get the desired foam level. The shampoo may need to be used twice in the hair, with the second wash revealing the foam. The first wash with the shampoo will not be as foamy as it is removing all the buildup and the second wash will be cleansing the hair strands and follicles. You will be surprised the difference in lather on just the first and second wash with the shampoo!
We are so excited that you are diving into the world of natural soaps and on your way to a healthier you!
I suffer from allergies so I am wondering, what are the ingredients in Neem Body Guard Cleansing Bar, and does it help protect from ticks while I am hiking? The Neem Queen has formulated ALL of our soaps to be hypoallergenic and free from irritating chemicals that are traditionally found in soap. We also add soothing oils such as Coconut, Karanja and Hemp that are intensely moisturizing and healing. Hemp oil is loaded with essential fatty acids which help reduce the body’s inflammatory response. Skin is high moisturized, redness relieved and itching calmed.
The full ingredients list is as follows: Elaeis guineensis (palm) Oil, Aqua (water), Sodium Hydroxide, Azadirachta indica (neem) Seed Oil, Cocos nucifera (coconut) Oil, Pongamia glabra (karanja) Oil, Ricinus communis (castor) Seed Oil, Cannabis Sativa (hemp) Seed Oil, Sodium Lactate, Mentha piperita (peppermint) Oil, Azadirachta indica (neem) Bark Powder, Avena sativa (oat) Powder
To answer the second part of your question regarding tick repellent, YES! This soap is a WONDERUFL insect repellent and is also all natural. Body Guard is packed with Neem Oil and Neem Bark Powder to repel any biting insect from far away, without clouding you (and our wildlife) with toxic chemicals. We also carry a Neem Buzz Off spray if you will be headed into heavily wooded areas; this is wonderful at providing a full range of lasting protection. And again, this product is all natural and safe for the whole family, and pets too!
I have a child entering school what product do you suggest to prevent Lice? Hi, this is such a good question because no one wants to be bogged down with a lice infestation during this fun and busy time, yet lice is so common during childhood! We believe that prevention is key! Neem Oil has a very distinctive smell (read: Have you Smelled Neem Oil) and lice hate it, so we would definitely recommend a scalp application! To learn more about the symptoms of lice, how to create your own home remedy to kill and prevent lice or where you can buy a Neem lice treatment kit, read more here. We would also recommend washing hair with Neem Bark Shampoo & Conditioner for prevention. If you are currently battling lice infestation we sell a lice kit specifically for this, which can be found here. This kit comes in two sizes (family and travel) and contains everything you and/or your family needs to keep bugs off!
Does Rash Relief cream help with hives caused by allergic reactions? The Neem Queen has created Rash Relief Cream for all types of skin rashes, including hives caused by allergic reactions. That being said, the treatment of hives may take more than just the application of the cream to find relief.
Most cases of hives (acute urticaria) are allergy-related and are a symptom of the body responding to a stimulus. Chronic urticaria (hives lasting over six weeks or recurring over months or years) is believed to be caused by an autoimmune response. In both cases, the hives are caused by a substance or condition that the body reacts abnormally to. Neem Capsules as well as Neem Tea will help alleviate chronic hives as your body needs to heal from the inside so symptoms resolve on the outside. For chronic and ongoing cases, it would be recommended to start a daily regimen of Neem Capsules and Neem Tea for prevention, and Neem Tub Tea baths with Rash Relief Cream for any flareups.
When the hives are especially itchy, you can take a cool Neem Tub Tea bath. The anti-inflammatory properties of Neem (which are: triterpenes, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, nimbidin, sodium nimbidate, gallic acid, catechin, and polysachharides), combined with the cool water will reduce the inflammation, and therefore also reduce the itch. Rash Relief Cream contains Neem Oil as well as Hemp Oil, which is also packed with anti-inflammatory properties.
Gently pat the affected area dry and rub in an even layer of the Rash Relief Cream. This cream can be reapplied as often as needed and can also be kept in the fridge for an extra cooling effect.
As always, please check with your trusted healthcare provider before stopping any prescribed medication, or if you have any questions whether Neem Capsules may interfere with any medications you are currently prescribed.
Can I use Neem Oil Beta Cream on my children after a day at the beach? Absolutely! Neem Oil Beta Cream is a wonderful choice to soothe and heal dry, irritated skin. This cream contains Neem Oil, Jojoba Oil, Hemp Oil, Zinc and Geranium Oil; and it’s created in a base of Ale Leaf Juice. There could not be a more nourishing and absorbent after sun cream.
This white, non-greasy cream disappears into your skin and naturally protects while intensely moisturizing. As with all of our products, this Beta Cream can also be used after shaving your face or legs, fabulous foundation under make-up, and helps when taking makeup off at the end of the day.
Because neem oil contains vitamin E and also rich in healthy fatty acids, it’s great for healing cracked dry skin by penetrating into the skin. It also locks in moisture to smooth out the skin texture. Neem also reduces inflammation which will help reduce the sting of any sunburns.
Hemp oil is rich in the fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, as well as amino acids that aid in collagen and elastin production. Hemp oil also has many phytonutrients that work in conjunction with our other healing essential oils to nurture and feed your skin!
Zinc Oxide creates a barrier on the skin and reflects the harmful UVA and UVB rays, protecting against sunburn. Zinc Oxide is also a wonderful natural healing agent, and when applied topically on sunburn delivers the nutrients where your body needs it most.
Geranium oil is an anti-inflammatory and antiseptic that is beneficial in this cream to prevent acne as well as regulate the oil production of the pores. Added bonus, it also has a sweet, uplifting smell that inspires relaxation!
Why is your Germ Cream known as "A to Z" Germ Cream? That's because The Neem Queen has formulated the germ cream to contain all the essentials, from Aloe to Zinc! The powerful combination of Aloe, Zinc, Neem, Frankincense, Hemp and Myrrh have this cream packing tremendous benefits.
Zinc is an essential trace mineral that is utilized by the body for many systemic functions. Applying Zinc topically not only speeds healing and prevents further infections, it also gives your body a boost of this key nutrient. Germ Fighter cream contains 11% Zinc to pack a potent punch that bacteria and viruses just can’t handle.
Frankincense, also known as the King of essential oils, has a variety of benefits. Rich in antiseptic properties it kills bacteria and viruses from hands and healing wounds. The aroma of Frankincense also promotes relaxation and calm.
Myrrh contains a high level of terpenoids which have a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effect. Myrrh rejuvenates and heals the skin.
Hemp oil is rich in the fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, as well as amino acids that aid in collagen and elastin production. Hemp oil also has many phytonutrients that work in conjunction with our other healing essential oils to nurture and feed your skin!
I have acne scars on my face, back and arms - Will any of your Blemish Buster Products help to reduce the appearance of these scars? Yes! Neem Oil (which is in ALL our blemish buster products) is a miraculous healer and will not only reduce the appearance of scars, but also help keep it clear of future breakouts.
Neem oil is loaded with nutrients and contains high levels of antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental damage. Neem also helps fight free radical damage in the skin because it contains carotenoids. As a result, cold-pressed neem oil and neem extracts are used in many of our creams, cleansing bars and foaming soaps. The fatty acids and vitamin E found in neem oil are easily absorbed into the skin without leaving the skin greasy. Once absorbed, these powerful properties work to rejuvenate the skin’s cells and restore elasticity. Benefit-rich vitamin E acts as a free radical scavenger, by hindering the oxidizing processes in the skin. It encourages soft and supple skin, helps in reducing old scars and promotes healing.
There are anti-inflammatory compounds known as nimbidin and nimbin that help relieve swelling and redness, and another compound known as quercetin supports the body’s ability to respond to inflammation by inhibiting both the manufacture and release of histamine and other irritants.
Our Blemish Buster products also contain our Acne Blend of essential oils that are designed to work in conjunction with each other to combat active acne infections and prevent future breakouts. Zinc is added to nourish and improve healing while reducing redness and removing blemish causing bacteria. Your skin texture improves, and redness fades away as our Blemish Buster cream restores your skin’s natural healthy balance. Hemp oil is rich in the fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, as well as amino acids that aid in collagen and elastin production. Moringa oil has an excellent skin penetration profile. When applied on the skin, the oil is easily absorbed, giving way for an instant radiance. The oil is rich in many nutrients that are helpful in nourishing the skin such as Vitamins A, C, and E. These vitamins help in improving the elasticity of the skin, reducing the number of fine lines and wrinkles and fighting inflammation.
I suffer from Tennis Elbow - How can Pain Relief Cream help and why? Tennis elbow is an irritation of the tissue connecting the forearm muscle to the elbow. These tissues become inflamed from overuse; the inflammation puts pressure on the surrounding nerves and these nerves send pain signals to the brain. The Neem Queen has formulated this pain cream with EIGHT different essential oils, all targeted at healing and pain relief. You will surely feel relief after this treatment.
Black Cumin oil is a medicinal plant and its oil is widely known as one of the greatest healing oils. Black Cumin has strong antimicrobial properties with high levels of antioxidants that promote healing and recovery.
Frankincense, also known as the King of essential oils, has a variety of benefits. Rich in antiseptic properties it kills bacteria and viruses from hands and healing wounds, while promoting new cell growth. The aroma of Frankincense also promotes relaxation and calm.
Lavender encourages relaxation and eliminates pain and nervous tension. Ginger is used treat inflammation and fight against the bacteria present on the skin. It helps promote skin renewal and improve blood circulation.
Myrrh contains a high level of terpenoids which have a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effect. Myrrh rejuvenates and heals the skin. Lemongrass oil adds wonderful antiviral abilities, as well as a naturally fragrant aroma.
Hemp oil is rich in the fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, as well as amino acids that aid in collagen and elastin production.
All of these oils and essential oils are mixed into a deeply hydrating base of Aloe and Karanja Oil that ensure deep penetration to the muscles and tendons. We recommend applying this cream every 4 hours, or as needed for pain relief.
I am looking for a product to help with my oily facial skin - I have tried several products that dry out my face and make it itch - Do you carry something that can help me? Yes! We have a Blemish Buster Foaming Face & Back Soap, a Blemish Buster Cream, and a Blemish Buster Cleansing Bar. We also have the option to purchase these all together in the Blemish & Acne Buster Kit. All of these products are all natural and contain healing and soothing ingredients that will heal your skin, and leave it feeling nourished instead of dried out and itchy.
One of the main ingredients in all of the blemish bluster products is Moringa Oil. Moringa oil has an excellent skin penetration profile. When applied on the skin, the oil is easily absorbed, giving way for an instant radiance. The oil is rich in many nutrients that are helpful in nourishing the skin such as Vitamins A, C, and E. These vitamins help in improving the elasticity of the skin, reducing the number of fine lines and wrinkles and fighting inflammation.
We also include Hemp oil in the blemish buster foaming soap and blemish buster cream. Hemp is rich in the fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, as well as amino acids that aid in collagen and elastin production.
The Neem Queen has crafted what we call the Essential Oils Acne Blend which includes Rosewood, Bulgarian Lavender, Tea Tree, Bergamot and Clove. This blend is THE most effective natural treatment for acne and skin blemishes, while still being gentle enough to use every day. The essential oils combined with the healing and nourishing oils are what really kicks our blemish buster line up a notch. We know it will work for you!

What are the benefits of using Moringa? Hi! The benefits of using Moringa are bountiful, we would like to give some background on Moringa and it's nurtrient compounds, before diving into the health benefits. The Neem Queen also has usage instructions and other information on the Moringa listings, which can be found here: Neem and Moringa Leaves.
Moringa (Moringa oleifera) is a MULTIPURPOSE herb that is a nutritional powerhouse of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Moringa is rich in vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A and C, calcium, potassium, iron, magnesium, B6, B2. Moringa also contains a potent mixture of the antioxidants quercetin, kaempferol, rhamnetin, chlorogenic acid and various polyphenols.

Moringa has been known to promotes normal digestion, detox the liver & other organs, provide a steady energy boost, without sugar or caffeine surge and crash, deliver a nutrient rich vitamins and minerals for hair, skin & nail, promote mental & emotional clarity and eliminates "water weight".
Moringa can be used in smoothies, as a natural mulit vitamin, mixed into juice, flavoring in meals, or in salad dressings. All of these uses will give your nutrition a huge boost. The Neem Queen uses 100% organic Moringa Oleifera, the Highest Quality Available!
Why is Neem known as Queen of The Skin? Neem has been named “Queen of The Skin” due to it’s biofilm blasting abilities. John Douillard recently did some groundbreaking research and the following is an except from his most recent article “Inhibit Intestinal Biofilm with Neem ‘The Village Pharmacy’”, we have linked the article and his youtube video below. We would love everyone to watch and learn from this!
John Douillard writes... “The Queen of the Skin One of neem’s greatest claims to fame is its powerful support for a healthy complexion. Generally, the leaves, fruit and seeds were eaten all spring and summer to support the appearance of healthy radiant skin, earning it the nickname, the “Queen of the Skin.” The little-known truth is that neem supports the outer skin by supporting the inner skin. The skin that lines your gut wall is the most important skin of the body. It is here that neem’s benefits are the most dramatic. Incredibly, perhaps as a spring cleaning back up plan, neem leaves have the ability to perform many of the same actions that the bitter roots, greens, and berries accomplish each spring—the scrubbing, cleansing, and fertilizing of the intestinal wall. By promoting a healthy intestinal environment each spring and summer, neem allows for the proliferation of beneficial gut microbes. The more we bolster a healthy microbial environment in the spring and summer, the better the gut can perform as your first defense. One could say that optimal health is all about the skin—inner and outer. The skin on both the inside and outside of the body is home to trillions of microbes that support optimal health. Neem may be the original prebiotic, as it seems to encourage the necessary environment the gut requires to unleash the body’s most powerful immune response—gut immunity.”
The Neem Queen has created a kit specifically for BLASTING BIOFILM, be sure to check it out!

I am looking for a special gift to my mom for Mother’s Day - do you have any recommendations? We know you mom would LOVE a Neem Queen Mother’s Day gift! Our recommendation is based on whether or not she has experience with Neem. If she is new to Neem we would recommend the Neem Queen’s “GET NEEMED” Starter Kit. The Neem Queen Starter Kit includes: 120 ct Organic Neem Leaf High Potency capsules, 8 mL Neem Leaf Extract, 5.5 oz LemonAide Cleansing Bar, 2 oz Buzz Off! Insect Repellent, 2 oz Lemongrass Neem Deodorant, 1 Neem Tub Tea Bag; which are all the essentials to a new neemer! If your mom has been using Neem for a while we would recommend replenishing her stock of Neem Capsules, indulging her with one the luxurious Neem Creams (we also have a sample set so she can try them all!), or creating your own bath kit with a cleansing bar of your choice and a Neem Tub Tea bag set. Your mom is sure to feel loved and pampered, and her HEALTH will thank you too!
What is different with the All About Neem Capsules compared to others I see around? We have many differences than the other Neem capsules you may see online or in the store. The most important difference is in the freshness and quality of the Neem we use. We sustainably source the greenest, highest quality Neem from family farms and then slow dry the leaves under shade before grinding or pressing. Our products are also manufactured in the USA in an FDA compliant facility. All About Neem also uses 1500 mg of Neem Leaf and Neem Extract in each capsule, which makes our capsules a more economical purchase; as most other brands are only 500 mg and require you to take more. We are very proud to be a small, woman owned business and spreading the good news of Neem to the WORLD!
When choosing an all-natural hair shampoo &/or conditioner - what should I look for? Hi! You should be on the lookout for plant based shampoos that contain essential oils. Avoid harsh chemicals such as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate/Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Fragrance, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, and Silcones. These ingredients are found in most traditional shampoos and conditoners. Sulfates strip the hair of the natural oils and silicones coat the hair to give false shine and softness. These two processes, done repeatedly every day, cause damage as the hair becomes dry, brittle and weak.
You instead want to look for products that are plant based and contain skin loving essential oils that will replenish the scalp and hair, while cleansing. Neem Queen’s herbal essentials shampoo and Neem Queen's herbal essentials conditioner do just that! The shampoo contains the following oils.. Castor, Olive, Palm, Karanja, Neem, Coconut, Flax and Moringa that all work together to remove buildup while replenishing and nourishing. The herbal essentials conditioner follow with neem seed oil and neem bark tea so hydrate and enhance softness and shine, the natural way! Also, Since about 60% of the products your on your body and hair dissolve into your blood and organs, you should always choose the safe and toxic-free products for you and your family!
My pet has allergies, does All About Neem make any products that could help with her allergies? Yes! We have a number of products that dramatically improve the allergies of our pets! We will recommend several steps depending on what kind of allergies your pet is experiencing. If your pet is experiencing seasonal allergies to grass/pollen we would recommend sprinkling their food with Neem Bark Powder. This will increase the bodies response to outside allergens and improve the regulation of the immune system.
If your pet is experiencing skin breakouts or hot spots we recommend the pet shampoo bar. We also have several creams (pain relief, anti-fungal & rash relief) that will aid your pet with various ailments that may arise.
I have arthritis in my knees and lower back and I was wondering if Neem had a product to help alleviate pain/stiffness? Hello there, yes! We have several recommendations for you with this condition.
We have several Neem products to recommend for Arthritis pain and stiffness. The first being Neem Oil. When applied topically, directly to inflamed joints the phenolic compounds and polysaccharides in Neem are delivered straight to the area of concern. These two properties of Neem Oil are the most beneficial in treating BOTH inflammation and pain. Massage the oil onto the affected areas three times a day.
The second product we would recommend are Neem Capsules. Neem helps to create a homeostasis (or balance) within the body and immune system. This balance directly affects the progression of arthritis by preventing the inflammation internally. We recommend taking one capsule three times a day, with a full glass of water each time.
The third product we would recommend is our Neem Oil Pain Cream. This cream contains Neem Oil as well as therapeutic and beneficial essential oils to help treat pain and inflammation. The essential oils are Frankincense, Lavender, Ginger, Myrrh, and Lemongrass. We would suggest you to use the Neem Oil or Neem Oil Pain Cream, or alternate the use of each product. We think you will find GREAT relief.
As with any new supplement its important to talk to your trusted healthcare provider to ensure there are no contraindications with any medications or supplements you’re currently taking.
My child has a rash on his bottom that won't go away - is there a product that you have that could help? Hi! Yes, we would recommend the Baby’s Bottom Rash Relief cream. This cream is packed with nutrients to help heal and soothe your baby’s delicate skin and heal the irritations ASAP.
The amazing combination of Aloe, Neem, Moringa and Zinc work in harmony to soothe, relieve pain, nourish and heal. It works wonderfully on skin irritations, and provides a nice barrier, which aids healing.
Arnica is a natural pain reliever that also stimulates the body’s healing processes, which will help your baby to be comfortable while the cream is working.
Zinc is an essential trace mineral that is utilized by the body for many systemic functions. Applying Zinc topically not only speeds healing and prevents further infections, it also gives your body a boost of this key nutrient. Baby’s Bottom cream also uses Zinc as a barrier to seal moisture away.
We hope your baby (and you) are able to find relief fast! We have heard from many parents that they use this cream on a regular basis as a preventative and have much success with that.
I have diabetes but I want to take Neem capsules, is it safe or beneficial to me? We strongly believe that Neem capsules can benefit everyone. It’s important to take special precaution when dealing with diagnosed medical conditions and it’s also important to remember that our recommendations should never replace the opinion/advice of a medical professional. Before stopping or adding any new supplements to your diet its important to consult your trusted medical professional.
Diabetes is a chronic, metabolic disease characterized by elevated levels of blood glucose (or blood sugar), which, if left untreated may also pose serious damage to the heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys, and nerves. Neem can help reverse the damage caused to these body systems and also improve bodily functions.
Neem capsules will help detox the buildup of chemicals in your liver from prescription medication use. Neem also helps naturally regulate blood sugar levels, which sometimes can interfere with insulin use. It is very, very important to test blood sugar at least daily when taking Neem capsules. You may see that your need for insulin decreases as you start detoxifying your body and your normal body functions regulate.
Neem leaves are loaded with flavonoids, triterpenoid, anti-viral compounds and glycosides, which may help manage blood sugar levels and ensure there is no surge in glucose.
"I forgot to put on sunblock and now I have a sunburn - What can I do?" The first thing you need to do is take a cool or lukewarm Neem Tub Tea bath and then treat your skin with a high quality moisturizer that will sooth, heal and protect. Our Beta Neem Cream contains all the essentials you need. Hemp oil, Jojoba oil, Zinc Oxide and Neem oil.
Hemp oil is rich in the fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, as well as amino acids that aid in collagen and elastin production. Hemp oil also has many phytonutrients that work in conjunction with our other healing essential oils to nurture and feed your skin!
Zinc Oxide creates a barrier on the skin and reflects the harmful UVA and UVB rays, protecting against future sunburn. Zinc Oxide is also a wonderful natural healing agent, and when applied topically on sunburn delivers the nutrients where your body needs it most.
Geranium oil is an anti-inflammatory and antiseptic that is beneficial in this cream to prevent acne as well as regulate the oil production of the pores. Added bonus, it also has a sweet, uplifting smell that inspires relaxation!
Make sure to drink plenty of water and take Neem capsules to avoid dehydration and help your body heal from the inside out! The high vitamin E and antioxidant levels in Neem will help deeply moisturize and heal the skin
Neem contains anti-inflammatory and aspirin-like substances that can help reduce the pain and swelling associated with sunburn and rid the skin of bacteria. If blisters form, don’t break them! They contain your natural body fluid and are a protective layer. Instead, treat them with Neem oil. This will help to heal them faster and keep infectious bacteria away from open wounds.

What do you do for your kids before and after school to protect them from germs?

What is the best bang for my buck? I am a busy mom and want to stay protected and keep my kids protected from all the parasites, bugs & mosquitoes? What a great question and one that I can fully relate to. There are so many uses of neem and being raised in Florida as well, we've searched for a natural bug spray to protect us. I have been a busy productive mom for almost 40 years, happily married for over 43 years, a grandmother for over 11 years a world traveler for way over 50 years and an entrepreneur way before the spelling & definition of this word was realized.
Four decades ago, I designed and created my first and LAST petite needle point boldly announcing a newly realized “mom” secret: “If mother isn’t HAPPY, nobody is HAPPY!” Now that I am 40 years older with much more life experience, I decided to edit that ole “truth”: If mother isn’t HEALTHY, nobody is HEALTHY."

I have toenail fungus. I used your neem cream on skin. It worked great and made my old ugly feet look and feel better. But, I'm using tea tree oil on the nail. Is there something better or stronger I could use? Thanks for any help. Good Morning Jill! You have a great question. We have had the opportunity to work directly with toe nail fungus so the suggestions that I will make are based upon our experience. Neem is anti fungal so there is a good start!
