Neem Oil and its benefits
Neem Oil
Neem has long been renowned for its healing properties. Today, the most established and widely recognized uses are based on its antiseptic effects. Neem preparations are reportedly beneficial in a plethora of skin diseases, septic sores and infected burns.
Neem oil is derived from the fruits and seeds of the neem tree. These trees grow mainly in the Indian subcontinent. Neem oil is abundant in fatty acids like palmitic, linoleic, and oleic acids, which promote healthy skin. As a result, it is a common ingredient in skincare products.
Neem oil has 8 times the linoleic acid of coconut oil and is higher in the softening oleic acid than both coconut and rosehip oils. Neem oil has cleansing properties and helps to soothe sensitive skin. It can help to ease the uncomfortable itching and swelling associated with eczema and psoriasis. Neem also plays a role in inhibiting the growth of numerous microbes such as viruses, bacteria and pathogenic fungi.
