In very general terms, neem is known to have an affinity for the reproductive system, the GI tract, the urinary tract, the respiratory system, and the circulatory system.

In Ayurveda, neem is typically used to balance pitta and kapha.
Its cold, light, and dry qualities tend to aggravate vata.
Neem is therefore often recommended in combination with other herbs that help subdue its vata-provoking nature.
Neem is quite bitter in taste, which gives it a powerful cooling energy (virya).
This cooling principle, combined with its capacity to support healthy blood, helps to balance pitta -- particularly when there is heat in rakta dhatu (the blood). Excess pitta can manifest in a number of ways; one prominent location is the skin.

Neem’s light and dry qualities give it the ability to counter kapha as well.
Neem supports healthy digestion and kindles meda dhatu agni (the metabolic/digestive principle within adipose tissue), encouraging proper metabolism, and supporting blood sugar levels that are already in the normal range. It is often taken internally to foster a state of balance in the liver, pancreas, and digestive tract. ...

Neem has a similar balancing effect on pitta and kapha in prana vaha srotas (the respiratory passages).
On a broader scale, neem supports natural cleansing of the channels in the body as well as the rejuvenation of healthy tissues. Because neem is vata aggravating by itself, it is combined with other herbs ....

Neem is extremely beneficial to save the environment from pollution; since its in-florescence is purifying ‘with its feathery crests tossing fifty feet into the sky’ neem is a veritable “Kalpataru” for giving healthy environs. Like other trees, it exhales out oxygen and keeps the oxygen level in the atmosphere balanced.

Like other trees, it also brings other environmental benefits such as flood control, reduced soil erosion and less salination.
Neem can avert environmental crisis in India and other tropical countries as it can be successfully used for rehabilitation of degraded ecosystems and waste lands. Neem is highly recommended for reforestation of semi-arid regions in India and tropics of the sub-Saharan region, Asia and Central America. Neem is extremely useful in urban forestry because it has remarkable ability to withstand air and water pollution as well as heat. Neem also helps in restoring and maintaining soil fertility which makes it highly suitable in agro-forestry.

Neem is a natural resource to keep environment clean.
In villages and cities as well as on farms, it is useful as a windbreak.
As a source of shade, it is excellent for parks, roadsides etc. Because of its so many qualities, it is a common practice in rural India to have a neem of tree within the compounds of most of the houses. Neem is also a regarded as a valuable forestry species in India.

Neem has powerful pest controlling activities and medicinal properties.
More importantly, pesticides made from neem are much safer compared to synthetic pesticides. ...
Neem grows fast and is a good source of firewood and fuels; the charcoal has high calorific value. ...
The evergreen, perennial tree can survive up to from 200 to 300 years ....

Neem in Indian culture has been ranked higher than ‘Kalpavriksha‘, the mythological wish-fulfilling tree.
In ‘Sharh-e-Mufridat Al-Qanoon, neem has been named as ‘Shajar-e-Mubarak‘, ‘the blessed tree’, because of its highly beneficial properties. Although scientific studies are wanting, neem is reputed to purify air and the environment of noxious elements. Its shade not only cools but prevents the occurrence of many diseases.

During hot summer months in northern parts of the Indian subcontinent, the temperature under the neem tree is ~10° C less than the surrounding temperature; 10 air conditioners operated together may not do the job as efficiently and economically as a full grown neem. Restoration of the health of degraded soils and ultimate use of such reclaimed wastelands lands through neem is another example of its value as an environmental panacea.

The tree is not only beautiful to look at, providing grandeur and serenity, but also serves as a refugia to many beneficial organisms, bats, birds, honey bees, spiders, etc. Honey-combs established on the neem tree are singularly free from the galleria wax moth infestation. Many species of birds and fruit-eating bats subsist on the sweet flesh of ripe fruits, while certain rodents selectively feed on the kernel, confirming neem’s safety to warm-blooded animals. The litter of falling leaves improves soil fertility and the organic content. Presently, little is known about the mycorrhizal associations between neem and bacterial and fungal endophytes, but the tree seems to be a living microcosm. ...

In India about 68% of the total population depends upon agriculture for their livelihood.
To guard the agricultural production from the pests, a variety of chemical pesticides are in use.
Most of them are toxic. They kill the target pest but also harm the ecosystem seriously by killing a variety of desirable organisms. Most of these pesticides are non biodegradable. It is clear that once used, chemical pesticides exists somewhere causing serious harm to mankind and the ecosystem. Realization of the negative effect of the chemical pesticides the uses of biopesticides is being encouraged all over the world.

In present studies it has been observed that biopesticides such as NEEM is capable of destroying only the target pest without harming other desirable organisms or without disturbing the ecological balance. Biopesticides are completely biodegradable. It has been also observed that soyabean grown by using organic farming and neem based pesticide have better quality i.e. better percentage of protein content and negligible pesticide residue. Also the yield has been found to be marginally better in the crop grown by organic farming method using neem pesticide. Thus bio pesticides and organic fertilizers represent some of the most significant crop protection tools that a grower has, to produce a quality crop without sacrificing on the yield.

Excitingly, naturally-occurring bioactive compounds obtained from various parts of the neem tree have been shown to induce “apoptosis” or programmed cell death in different types of tumor cells in laboratory conditions. Some of these compounds stimulate the immune system to fight cancer cells better. Neem compounds may also prevent cancer development by generating high levels of antioxidants and carcinogen-detoxifying enzymes.

Overall, neem compounds show impressive anti-cancer potential against many human cancer cell lines and animal models for human cancers. Among these are colon, stomach, pancreas, lung, liver, skin, oral, prostate, and breast cancers. ...

Nimbolide – a bioactive neem compound – also reduced the ability of pancreatic cancer cells to migrate and invade other areas of the body by an astonishing 70%. Migration and invasion – known scientifically as “metastasis” – of cancer cells to other areas of the body is the main reason why pancreatic and other cancers are so lethal.

Pancreatic cancer is the most lethal of all, with 94% of patients dying within the first five years of diagnosis, with no conventional treatment in sight.

Extracts of neem leaves have been shown to enhance the actions of so-called “phase-II hepatic enzymes” such as Glutathione S-transferases and DT-diaphorase. Both these enzymes are known to be involved in detoxification of chemical carcinogens.

Additionally, neem leaf extracts enhance the activity of various liver antioxidant enzymes.
Amongst these are glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase, which are known to help in detoxifying the body.

Various parts of the neem tree and its extracts have been used by humans for medicinal purposes for hundreds of years.
While the uses of neem seem limitless, precautions need to be taken and neem products should be used with care. Indiscriminate consumption of higher than necessary doses may sometimes cause unpleasant side effects.

Some people are allergic to neem compounds – leading to itching, swelling of the mouth and throat, wheezing, and breathing difficulties. In very rare instances, some neem compounds may also damage the liver and kidneys.

Animal diseases and veterinary public-health (VPH) problems constitute a major constraint to livestock production and safe utilization of animal products worldwide. Neem derived compounds (NDCs) can play a role in the field of animal health. One must distinguish between to levels of intervention. On the one hand for developing countries where serious socio-economic consequences, which include production losses, loss of livelihoods, poverty, food insecurity, restriction of marketing opportunities, disincentives to investment and public-health risks are tightly linked to animal diseases on the one hand, and, on the other hand organic livestock production and pet animals in the developed world.

The most vulnerable groups, in developing countries, for whom animal diseases are particularly devastating, are poor livestock farmers and farming communities where animal diseases pose crucial constraints for the enhancement of livestock production systems. In developed countries organic livestock production is a means of food production with a large number of rules directed towards a high status of animal welfare, care for the environment, restricted use of medical drugs and the production of a healthy product without residues (pesticides or medical drugs). Furthermore, in high-income countries, a very florid veterinary product market exists for “affection animals” (dogs, cats, horses, birds, etc..).

Historically NDCs already have a consolidated use in agriculture both as bio-pesticides as well as natural biocides due to the anti-feedant properties, inhibition of growth and reproductive capacity, observed in about 400 species of harmful insects. At the same time, these substances are highly biodegradable and not harmful to the health of mammals.

The use of NDCs in different aspects of animal health such as control of ecto- and endo-parasites (lice, and ticks, gastrointestinal worms), plasmodial diseases and wound healing ....




About: Azadirachta indica; Neem. INDEX
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azadirachta_indica

Azadirachta indica (commonly known as neem, nimtree and Indian lilac) is a tree in the mahogany family Meliaceae.

It is one of two species in the genus Azadirachta, and is native to the Indian subcontinent,
i.e. India, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Maldives.

It typically is grown in tropical and semi-tropical regions.
Neem trees now also grow in islands located in the southern part of Iran.
Its fruits and seeds are the source of neem oil.

Neem is a fast-growing tree that can reach a height of 15–20 metres (49–66 ft), and rarely 35–40 metres (115–131 ft).
It is evergreen, but in severe drought it may shed most of its leaves or nearly all leaves. The branches are wide and spreading. The fairly dense crown is roundish and may reach a diameter of 15–20 metres (49–66 ft) in old, free-standing specimens. The neem tree is very similar in appearance to its relative, the Chinaberry (Melia azedarach).

The opposite, pinnate leaves are 20–40 centimetres (7.9–15.7 in) long, with 20 to 31 medium to dark green leaflets about 3–8 centimetres (1.2–3.1 in) long. The terminal leaflet often is missing. The petioles are short.

The (white and fragrant) flowers are arranged in more-or-less drooping axillary panicles which are up to 25 centimetres (9.8 in) long. The inflorescences, which branch up to the third degree, bear from 150 to 250 flowers. An individual flower is 5–6 millimetres (0.20–0.24 in) long and 8–11 millimetres (0.31–0.43 in) wide. Protandrous, bisexual flowers and male flowers exist on the same individual tree.

The fruit is a smooth (glabrous), olive-like drupe which varies in shape from elongate oval to nearly roundish, and when ripe is 1.4–2.8 centimetres (0.55–1.10 in) by 1.0–1.5 centimetres (0.39–0.59 in). The fruit skin (exocarp) is thin and the bitter-sweet pulp (mesocarp) is yellowish-white and very fibrous. The mesocarp is 0.3–0.5 centimetres (0.12–0.20 in) thick. The white, hard inner shell (endocarp) of the fruit encloses one, rarely two, or three, elongated seeds (kernels) having a brown seed coat.

Neem leaves are dried in India and placed in cupboards to prevent insects eating the clothes, and also in tins where rice is stored. Neem leaves are dried and burnt in the tropical regions to keep away mosquitoes. These flowers are also used in many Indian festivals like Ugadi.

As an ayurvedic herb, neem is also used in baths.

The tender shoots and flowers of the neem tree are eaten as a vegetable in India.
A souplike dish called Veppampoo charu (Tamil) (translated as "neem flower rasam") made of the flower of neem is prepared in Tamil Nadu. In Bengal, young neem leaves are fried in oil with tiny pieces of eggplant (brinjal). The dish is called nim begun and is the first item during a Bengali meal that acts as an appetizer. It is eaten with rice.

Neem is used in parts of mainland Southeast Asia, particularly in Cambodia, Laos (where it is called kadao), Thailand (where it is known as sadao or sdao), Myanmar (where it is known as tamar) and Vietnam (where it is known as s?u dâu and is used to cook the salad g?i s?u dâu).

Even lightly cooked, the flavour is quite bitter and the food is not enjoyed by all inhabitants of these nations, though it is believed to be good for one's health. Neem gum is a rich source of protein. In Myanmar, young neem leaves and flower buds are boiled with tamarind fruit to soften its bitterness and eaten as a vegetable. Pickled neem leaves are also eaten with tomato and fish paste sauce in Myanmar.




Health: Medicinal properties of Neem. INDEX
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azadirachta_indica

Products made from neem trees have been used in India for over two millennia for their medicinal properties.
Neem products are believed by Siddha and Ayurvedic practitioners to be

  • Anthelmintic,
  • antifungal,
  • antidiabetic,
  • antibacterial,
  • antiviral,
  • contraceptive, and
  • sedative.

  • It is considered a major component in siddha medicine and Ayurvedic and Unani medicine and is particularly prescribed for

      • skin diseases
      • healthy hair,
      • to improve liver function,,
      • detoxify the blood, and
      • balance blood sugar levels.

    Neem leaves have also been used to treat skin diseases like eczema, psoriasis, etc.

    In adults, short-term use of neem is safe, while long-term use may harm the kidneys or liver;
    in small children, neem oil is toxic and can lead to death.

      Neem may also cause

      • miscarriages,
      • infertility, and
      • low blood sugar.




    Ecology: Agricultural properties of Neem. INDEX
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azadirachta_indica

    Neem (Ineem) is a key ingredient in non-pesticidal management (NPM), providing a natural alternative to synthetic pesticides. Neem seeds are ground into a powder that is soaked overnight in water and sprayed onto the crop. To be effective, it must be applied repeatedly, at least every ten days. Neem does not directly kill insects on the crop. It acts as an anti-feedant, repellent, and egg-laying deterrent, protecting the crop from damage. The insects starve and die within a few days. Neem also suppresses the hatching of pest insects from their eggs. Neem cake is often sold as a fertilizer.

    The biopesticide produced by extraction from the tree seeds contains limonoids.
    Currently, the extraction process has disadvantages such as contamination with fungi and heterogeneity in the content of limonoids due to genetic, climatic, and geographical variations. To overcome these problems, production of limonoids from plant cell suspension and hairy root cultures in bioreactors has been studied, including the development of a two-stage bioreactor process that enhances growth and production of limonoids with cell suspension cultures of A. indica.

    Ayurveda was the first to bring the anthelmintic, antifungal, antibacterial, and antiviral constituents of the neem tree to the attention of natural products chemists.

    The process of extracting neem oil involves extracting the water-insoluble components with ether, petrol ether, ethyl acetate, and dilute alcohol. The provisional naming was nimbin (sulphur-free crystalline product with melting point at 205 °C, empirical composition C7H10O2), nimbinin (with similar principle, melting at 192 °C), and nimbidin (cream-coloured containing amorphous sulphur, melting at 90–100 °C). Siddiqui identified nimbidin as the main active antibacterial ingredient, and the highest yielding bitter component in the neem oil.

    These compounds are stable and found in substantial quantities in the Neem.
    They also serve as natural insecticides.

    Neem-coated urea is being used an alternate to plain urea fertilizer in India.
    It reduces pollution, improves fertilizer's efficacy and soil health.

    Neem is an evergreen that grows in the tropics and sub-tropics.
    Neem has been used widely in Indian traditional med-icine for various therapeutic purposes and to protect against new diseases. Scientific investigations carried out during the last two decades have reported anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties of Neem.

    The medicinal uses are attributed to several compounds including azadirachtin and meliantriol.
    Neem products have been used against heat rash, boils, wounds, chicken pox, fungal infections, parasites, lice, Dental infections and respiratory infections.

    It is also found in a variety of personal hygiene products, insect repellents and natural pesticides.
    Neem -based pesticide formulations are safe, natural, and biodegradable unlike chemical and synthetic pesticides, which leave behind residues polluting air, water and soil.

    Neem can be purchased as an essential oil, cream, salve or ointment.
    Neem is usually used on the skin, as a mouthwash, or as an inhalation.
    In North America it is rarely used internally but it is used in India for internal conditions.
    It can also be found in hygiene products and natural pesticides.
    Essential oils are concentrated substances and should not be used internally without supervision.

    There has never been a report of the topical or dental application of neem causing an adverse side effect.
    It is always recommended that personal reaction and tolerance to herbal products be tested at the onset of use for any new supplement. The safety of neem in children, pregnant women and nursing mothers has not been determined.

    Aromatherapy
    How does it work?
    There are two proposed mechanisms.
    The first follows the theory that the aroma of the oils have a direct influence on the brain.
    Through the olfactory system, our nose, the aromas travel to the limbic system of the brain.

    The limbic system is involved in various functions in the body such as emotional responses, memory storage and hormone regulation. It also plays a role in sensory perception and motor function, as well as olfaction, the sense of smell.

    Another theory is simply that, just as plants and herbs have (vibrational) medicinal properties, essential oils made from the same plants and herbs have pharmacological effects, as well. This theory relies on the ability of the scented oils to be absorbed through the skin and exert their medicinal effect on deeper bodily processes that way. These two mechanisms support the argument that the oils can be, but do not necessarily have to be applied on the skin to achieve their healing goals.

    Aromatherapy offers treatment for a wide range of health concerns.
    It is commonly used for the treatment of mental emotional issues such as depression, anxiety, irritability, insomnia and lack of concentration. It has been used in the treatment of chronic concerns, such as respiratory conditions, muscle and joint pain, and overall weakened immune system. It is also helpful in the case of acute nausea, exhaustion or headache.

    Aromatherapy is a well known treatment for low libido and overall stress reduction.
    There are sadly few scientific studies to prove the effectiveness of Aromatherapy as medicine, simply because it is a difficult area to study as the treatments are designed for individual use.

    Essential Oils are the naturally occurring volatile oils obtained by steam distillation or cold pressing (expression), having the characteristic aroma of the plant part from which it was derived. These 100% pure oils are "neat", meaning they have not been processed, diluted or manipulated in any way with solvents or other additives. Although a particular species of plant harvested and distilled for its essential oil during a particular growing season in a specific region may produce a fragrance that differs from the same species grown in a different region, many of the main chemical markers and physical specifications may be very similar.

    Neem leaf contains over 50 volatile oils, including terpenes, that account for its beneficial properties.
    Its oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) value is five times that of blueberries, and 20 times that of broccoli and grapefruit.

    Neem has been one of the cornerstone botanicals in Ayurvedic medicine, with a history dating back several thousand years.
    Neem leaf is regarded as a panacea (cure-all) throughout India, with applications ranging from its use in toothpaste for cavity prevention to the treatment of serious bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections.

    New Roots Herbal’s Neem Leaf contains over 50 volatile compounds that exert powerful therapeutic benefits.
    With recent knowledge and methods for quantifying disease-prevention potential, the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC value) of neem has been determined to be five times (5×) greater than that of blueberries, and twenty times (20×) greater than that of broccoli and grapefruit.

    In joint studies conducted between the Howard University College of Medicine and the University of Nigeria, neem leaf was shown effective in the treatment of malaria, cancer, and HIV. Compounds found in neem leaf were effective in preventing the adhesion of parasites, viruses, and cancer cells to healthy tissue. Studies have also shown neem leaf to bolster populations of CD4+ T cells in AIDS patients.

    Vandana Shiva is a prominent Indian-born environmentalist who, for the past decade, has emerged as an international icon in the movement criticizing conventional agriculture and biotechnology. ... Shiva is perhaps best known for claiming that the introduction of genetically modified cotton seeds in India has led to mass genocide by poor farmers seduced by the ‘false promise’ of GMOs. “270,000 Indian farmers have committed suicide since Monsanto entered the Indian seed market,” she has said. “It’s genocide.” (The farmers sowed modified seed, often purchased on credit, in response to promises of greatly enhanced yields, then reaped poor crop yields and infertile land. Pushed into poverty, debt, and starvation, for themselves and their families, many saw suicide as the only way to provide income, through insurance claims, to sustain their families. This cycle has happened in many low income agriculture economies.)

    Vandana Shiva was born in the valley of Dehradun in India in 1952. ...
    Educated in her homeland, she pursued graduate studies in Canada, receiving an MA at Guelph and a PhD at the University of Western Ontario. A dedicated environmental activist, she eventually founded Navdanya – meaning “Nine Seeds” – more than two decades ago. According to its website, its organizational mandate is “to protect the diversity and integrity of living resources, especially native seed, and to promote organic farming and fair trade.” Under her guidance Navdanya has evolved into a national (India) movement.

    By 1991, Shiva was publicly calling the Green Revolution “a failure.” (Also), she suggested that it has caused hunger. Industrially produced crops, she writes, are “…nutritionally empty but loaded with chemicals and toxins ….” She claims that “The Green Revolution is chemical-intensive, capital-intensive and fossil fuel-intensive. It must, by its very structure, push farmers into debt and indebted farmers off the land.” ...

    Shiva has stated that intellectual property rights (IPRs) laws and trade agreements like TRIPs at the WTO have “unleashed an epidemic of piracy of nature’s indigenous innovations…” Here first organized initiative against biopiracy was the 1994 Neem Campaign to protest patents using the Neem tree with the European Patent Office. Monsanto was planning on altering the Neem genome to convert it to a more insect and fungal resistant propritary and patented variety with proposed higher crop yields.

    Like many "commercialized" seeds, they would biologically transfer their altered genome by cross-pollination to other nearby non-GMO crops. Based on the results of bioengineered other crops, infertile seed yields would seek to force farmers to purchase future feedstocks from the chemical companies. The soil in which the GMO variety was grown would become devoid of earth rejuvenating bacteria and other lifeforms, and, the added water demand of the supergrowth GMO variety would parch the soil and encourage local water tables to fall in depth. The result could be, as has been found elsewhere, soil which would not grow anything but the GMO seeds they were altered by. Crops could fail to reach the yields promised and proposed by the chemical seed company resulting in inadequate income to repay debts assumed under promiose of miracle crops, and, inadequate to feed and sustain their families. Typically, planned GMO neem seeds would be marketed locally through small companies licenced by the chemical company. If they were sued by farmers reaping disastrous yields, they could simply close and declare bankruptcy.

    The biotech industry defends itself with selective use of facts, statistics, and interwoven disinformation in a well financed effort to confuse any observer, particularly anyone not a farmer using GMO seeds, or someone in contact with such a community.

    The importance of all of this to the person pursuing enhanced health is that GMO crops, including GMO neem, by their very definition and laboratory alteration, do NOT carry and display the same qualities and biological ingredients as the original plant seeds. In addition, genes which have been added to the seed often originate in different lifeforms and can effect different influence on one's health. They are designed to kill insects, deter fungal invasion, and contain or alter plant viruses. There has been a great amount of research concluded on the original neem varieties. Little is available to the public on GMO varieties. If you want the benefits frequently attributed to Neem, ensure that you buy a GMO-free band.

    For the purpose of maintaining an availability of these articles for us, I have reprinted parts here with authorship maintained, coding simplified for error-free loading and minimal file size, and a LINK to the original document. NOTHING in writing is absolute; don't treat human opinion, projection, and observation as an Idol. Doing so can kill you, or worse, have you impose abuse on others.

    I gathered and researched this data, mediated with the Grace of God through prayer, first, as a benefit in my interest in exploring available digital information which would acquaint me with the overall content related to the subject. I have found that God is ALWAYS available when we are Reverent in our Asking, open-minded in our Listening, and, Assertive in our Choice of Action. Doctors did not expect me to survive birth. In the past 25 years, medical and health "experts" have cautioned or directed me, more than 14 times, that I had little time left to live, or would die ... because THEY did not understand my challenges, were not motivated to professionally diagnose, or, chose to superstitiously recall as absolute previously flawed training. I am still alive beyond age 70. With the assistance of God, my Personality, the research and lack of dismissiveness of a number of persons ... I have found resolution to numerous health challenges. This has enabled me to assist many others who had been abandoned. May it also empower you. This is one document which you may find helpful as a BASIC introduction to the subject.
