As one of the few North American Neem Researchers since 1994 I have authored over 90 educational articles about health, healing, herbs, and nutrition inclusive 21 articles about the miraculous versatile medical neem tree from India that offer better plant, human, animal, and environmental health. I am the author of three neem books:   Award winning books "Neem: Nature's Healing Gift to Humanity," "Neem:  The Tree that heals Nations" and "Neem: Your Guide to Natural Health   and Beauty" https://www.neem-books.com

As core-founding member of the WNO – World Neem Organisation, Mumbai,   India, founded 2017, I represent North America, United Kingdom, Germany and the Scandinavian countries and attended as speaker three Neem Conferences in India 2012 Nagpur, 2018 Bangalore and 2024 New Delhi.  https://vitalitymagazine.com/wno-neem-summit-2024-success/

 Three of the strong supporters for my neem research and books are: Dr David Suzuki; I viewed his video "What's in a Neem" at the CBC program   "The Nature of Things" in January 1994 and I have been in touch with   him since 1995, and both world renowned entomologists, scientists and neem researchers Dr. Ramesh Saxena from India and Professor Dr Heinrich Schmutterer, from Germany, "The father of Modern Neem".

March 2025 Klaus Ferlow celebrated his 87th birthday. A friend, knowing that I want to reach 100 years gave him a beautiful mug

What makes this tree worthy to be named Tree of the 21st Century by the United Nations?   Colgate, Costco, Wholefoods Market, Wal Mart, Now Foods, New Roots   Herbal, Sundari, Nature's Way, LOreal, Garnier, Paris, Avon, UK,  A.Vogel, UK, Dr. Hauschka, Germany,   Shisido, Japan jumped on the bandwagon. Furthermore you will find huge numbers of companies selling Ayurvedic herbal neem products on the  websites of Amazon and Alibaba!

The first recorded use of neem was several thousand years ago, as ancient Indian cultures used it as an integral part of dozens of  health and beauty aids. The 5000 year old AYURVEDA botanical medicinal  healing system is the most successful system in the world treating the  whole body and not only the symptoms! 75% of all Ayurvedic herbal products contain neem! Medicinal attributes of Neem were extolled in   the oldest Sanskrit writings.

It is only in recent years that the rest of the world has shown interest in neem's versatility and healing potential. International scientific research has explored neem's ability to prevent and treat an astonishing number of health disorders, inclusive those not  successfully addressed by conventional pharmaceuticals!

Every part of the neem tree: bark, cake,  flowers, fruit, gum, honey, leaves, seed/kernel oil, pulp, resin, root, twigs has medicinal value, plus wood for furniture and construction.

The tree helps prevent environmental pollution and soil erosion, and rehabilitate degraded ecosystems and wastelands. Neem trees are recommended for reforestation, are useful for wind breaks, in  areas   of low rainfall (grows even in the desert), and high speed wind,   protect crops and can be made into non-toxic pesticide and fertilizer and veterinarian medicine, personal care products and cosmetics.

 My own experience with psoriasis and neem has been nothing short of a miracle. I suffered for more than 40 years with severe psoriasis on my scalp and elbows. However, when I started using our own herbal neem   care products we created (neem cream, shampoo, conditioner, soap, oil   blend) I alleviated the problem but it is not a cure and need to   maintain using the neem products!

Conclusion

Of all the plants that have proven useful throughout the ages, few have offered as much value and versatility as the neem tree. With growing research supporting the healing properties, neem is finally getting the attention it deserves!

It is health that is real  wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.  Mahatma Gandhi
