I am not a doctor, these are just my opinions on Neem products, etc. I am not telling people to use them but merely speaking from my own experiences.

Triphala (lit. "three fruits") sounds like, Trip Fall-a. The "greatest" of these "three fruits" is Amaliki, which sounds like Am I Like He.
This is an excellent body and blood cleanser, and has the Indian saying, "So you have no mother? That's alright if you have Triphala. " So perhaps this is even safe for children??? It is very high in Vit. C. , and good for use as a purgative /laxative, whole body cleanser (especially the liver and organs), and is anti-inflammatory for the stomach and intestines. --T.

I was suffering from Tinea infection along with scarring alopecia for about 2 years. I used to get pimples/boils on my scalp and that used to cause a lot of hairloss. Also constant scalp itching and scaling was present all the time.
I went to all kinds of doctors... Modern medicines, ayurvedic, homepathic, but no doctor could cure my condition. Dermatologists told me I am suffering from scalp infection AND scarring alopecia. And only medicines they have are heavy antibiotics steroids.
I was scared like hell seeing bunches of my hair falling out (I already lost 40-50% of my original beautiful hair over past 2 yrs with doctors' experiments on me). Finally 3 months ago, I decided to put an end to this misery and stopped any doctor prescribed medicine (I have lost my faith in modern age doctors. They are more businessmen than doctors). I read that neem is the "tree of life", and it can cure so many skin disorders. So I decided to simply apply pure cold pressed neem seed oil diluted in castor and olive oil (1:1:1) and started taking 1/2 teaspoon of neem powder every morning on empty stomach with warm water (for purification of body).
Within 2 weeks of starting the neem oil regime my scalp itching stopped (for past 2 years not a single day went without me having to scratch my scalp). I felt more optimistic. The scalp pimples and consequent hairloss was still there, but I religiously continued this routine. Now after about 3 months after starting the neem powder regime, my scalp itching has gone COMPLETELY, scalp has cleared off the pimples (I don't get new pimples on the scalp anymore). Because of this the hairloss has also reduced considerably.
I am going to continue this regime and see if I can regrow my hair (which doctors swore that it won't as it was a scarring alopecia. But doctors are still human beings who have only understood about 1% of the nature's healing power and not understood the power of FAITH at all)!
Wanted to share this for someone who's suffering from similar ailment!

The angular cheilitis comes once every few months. I will apply neem oil 3-4 times daily. After one overnight, it becomes less painful. It will be gone in 2-3 days.

Neem Oil Side Effects
That was the beginning of my discovering a cure. Before finding the cure, I tried -- for a couple years -- about 50 non-toxic possibilities, including neem, clove, tea tree, peppermint, coconut, and other oils, lactic acid (whey), acetic acid (vinegar), acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), sauna, infra-red sauna, no-sulphur mineral water soaks, various soaps, alkaline water, acidic water, alkaline body, alkaline blood, adequate sleep, giving up gluten (for other reasons not related to the skin problem), etc. etc. etc. I can't even remember everything else, there was so much. None of it made the problem worse, as I'm pretty sure neem did. But it didn't get rid of the problem either. I'm glad neem does help for whatever it helps for. I just wanted to let people know that there is at least one harmful skin growth that likes neem. What did finally work was homeopathy. I also have been taking systemic enzymes. Those are the two most helpful things I did. (Oh, I had given up all forms of sugar, including fruit, years before I was exposed to and contracted the skin problem, and gave up grains during the battle with the skin invader.)
After getting the mild outbreak from sulphur baths, I read about homeopathy helping people with other skin ailments, and the homeopathy I used induced a severe outbreak (and overlapping series of outbreaks) that went on for about ten months but is now I think/hope about 70 percent gone. Homeopathic teachers/healers say each person is different, so what works for one person might not work for another. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't hurt if you use the wrong remedy. Also, anyone who's reading this, it really is true that our illnesses are opportunities to have better health than ever before.
For one example, I had a lifelong health problem with my bladder (from age five or earlier) (not an infection, but the many many doctors I went to for help were useless and in some cases harmful) that I had accepted as a horrible but incurable part of my life; my search for a cure for my skin problem led me to homeopathy, which to my complete amazement 80 percent cured me of my lifelong horrible bladder problem before the skin problem was cured. Actually, the skin problem is slowly slowly slowly but very surely going away still. I didn't have hope for a long time, and now I'm certain it's so conquered that its disappearance is going to continue until it's completely gone. (By the way, for sulphur baths, you can use epsom salt from the drug store or go to a natural spring.)

I have used it for a long time (when necessary) and I love the smell.

Neem is considered as the king of Herbs in India. There are many diseases that are treated with neem including arthritis, rheumatism diabetes, cancer, Chronic fatigue caused by candida albicans etc..
Some ways of using Neem
1. Mix pure dried neem oil with Vaseline in the ratio of 1:5. This combination can be used for repelling insects including mosquitoes as well as for skin disorders, minor cuts, burns, wounds etc.
2. For complete skin protection make a strong tea with neem leaves and add to the bath along with a little rose water.
3. Boil 10 freshly cleaned neem leaves along with cotton with a liter of water for approx. 10 mins. Cool. Use as an eyewash in case of conjunctivitis, itching etc.
4. For athletes' foot and other foot problems, make a strong tea and soak feet.
5. For dandruff and head lice: Massage neem oil mixed with coconut or olive oil into hair and leave for 1 hour. Shampoo. Repeat once weekly for 3 weeks or as long as problem persists.
6. To treat a sore throat without antibiotics, gargle with neem leaf water (add 2 - 3 neem leaves to 300 ml water and cool) to which honey has been added.

13. For Diabetes, recommend usage is to take one tablespoon of neem leaf juice daily on an empty stomach each morning for three months. An alternative is to chew or take in powder form ten (10) neem leaves daily in the morning. Some studies have shown that oral application of neem leaf extracts reduced a patient's insulin requirements by between 30 and 50 percent for nonkeytonic, insulin fast and insulin-sensitive diabetes.

With any powerful natural cure, when you begin using it, more is less. Try googling the term 'titration'.
Dieoff/herx reactions can kill when they are just plain too strong, so for serious illnesses it's best to start with just 1/8-1/16 of a standard suggested dose.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and had minimal pain and inflammation before taking neem, and I took it for about a month. Over that month the pain and inflammation increased pretty severely; my entire body - from my skin, joints and organs - experienced extreme inflammation, and I may also have some permanent joint damage now. Three months later I am still slowly nursing the pain and inflammation into remission (the natural way). This may be an isolated incident and I am not a doctor, but I would like to at least let people know the experience I had with it. I would, however, recommend it to people who don't have an autoimmune disease.

Start by warming the Neem Oil by sitting the closed bottle in a bowl of hot water for about 10 minutes. This is important because Neem Oil becomes viscous or solid when cold and you must warm it up so that it flows easily into the ear.
Then, using a dropper, fill the ear canal with pure Neem Oil, then massage the ear canal for about a minute, then wipe off the excess with a cotton ball. Do this once a day at bedtime for a few days so the dog sleeps with the oil in its ear. Neem Oil seems to be absorbed into the tissues so do not use it for more than a few days.

It is important to know about the dosha of the person partaking of this beneficial plant as certain chemical compositions in people need adjustments; for example the duration of usage and is therefore, while very effective, to be treated only on an individual basis.
It is important to do research as personal opinion can be misleading.

An alcoholic extract of neem worked for me, after neem oil did not show any effect. Living here in West-Africa, most people are infected with multi-resistant scabies. Benzylbenzoate (an ingredient of cheap, "chemical" perfume, that burned intensely when rubbed into the skin) didn't work, also tea-tree-oil and neem-oil showed no effects; I didn't want to try the strong insecticide Permethrine, because I wanted to keep my room-mates, I. E. The spiders etc. ; vaseline with sulphur in the recommended application was quite nasty, because of having to sit naked with vaseline all over the body in a plastic chair several days, sweating in the tropical heat. But then Neem-Tincture has worked fine! In just three days, applied morning and evening, complete eradication of all symptoms, permanently. Since reinfection can hardly be avoided here, every few months I get opportunity to reassure myself of the reliable effectiveness of this simple method. Neem-Tincture - (alcoholic extract of neem-leaves)- recipe: dried neem leaf powder or fine leaf flakes mixed with double volume-amount alcohol (e. g. Normal 40% schnaps, tequila etc. ), let soak for two weeks in closed jar, then filter and press through cloth - voila.

You can start with Quarter Teaspoon in the night time for 3 days. If you can tolerate increase to half teaspoon. It will flush all the crap out of your bowel. It will induce loose bowel movements. We used to give to Calf to kill their parasites in those days.
P.S. I think repeat for min 3 weeks in the same manner.

My dog Terra who is part Sheppard and part Akita, had two large hot spots on her back above her tail. I wasn't sure what to do so I asked the folks at our local herb shop ( called "the Herb Shop") and they recommended using Neem oil. When I got home I poured a little Hydrogen peroxide on them to clean and disinfect the spots and then I applied a coating of the oil, nothing else. After about 20 minutes or so, the skin started drying out and that was it, no more problem , completely healed with in a few days.
Several years later, my Mother was in the last few days of her life, from cancer, and we noticed a rather large bed sore on her back so I applied some Neem oil and the same thing happened. Even though her body had started shutting down the skin was reforming on the bedsore!
My Persian cat Sunshine got a horrible skin condition. I think it was mange. It was complete scabs all down his backend. I made a shampoo with lots of neem and then to liet it sit on him put the "donut collar" on him so he couldn't lick. Many things can be toxic to cats. I think I had read to leave it on 15 minutes but for good measure left it on a few hours before rinsing him thoroughly. The next day his hair was growing back 50% from bald! The rest of the growth was rapid. The condition never returned or a symptom after rinsing. AMAZING stuff.
Neem Oil has been tested scientifically against the top chemical spot flea treatments. It is applied to the back of the neck the same way only more. For thick fur animals you nip a tiny area of fur out to have skin showing. It tests more effective than the toxic treatments on all four stages of fleas.
It even lasts longer 6- 8 weeks but I apply every 4 or 5. It works! It can also save a lot of money especially if one has a lot of pets. It stinks only for about 15 minutes and then the smell dissipates. I've told many friends about it and they are amazed. It saves some people over $100 a month. Amazon has a 16 oz container for $8. This is my second bottle. It lasts a LONG time. You can give it as gifts to animal lovers. Their animals are spared the chemical toxicity and they are spared the bills.

Neem, like other natural antibiotic herbs like Grapefruitseed & Oregano are known as direct antipathogens acting on the organisms themselves, as opposed to known "immune boosting" herbs like Echanacia (which is contraindicated for those w/ autoimmunity), Reishi, Maitake, and Shitake mushrooms.

Neem Seed Oil is against parasites, mites and tics and fleas. It is also anti-bacterial. I used it on little turtles, chickens and cats. These are our only animals. I am so confident with this. I have solved problems, the vet said, were psychological. In one case, it truly was. Our cat was not stopping to scratch herself and inflicted wounds on herself because we had been away for some time and she was traumatized. I solved this problem by using Neem Seed Oil on her wounds first and then I put a little dog-shirt on her (like a T-shirt for tiny doggies you can buy). She was so estranged about the funny thing on her body that she forgot about her licking and couldn't anyway. After a few days, she got it off herself and had all forgotten her obsessive licking. When I use Neem Seed Oil, I put it on my hands, and oil the animals generously on all the spots necessary. They hate it - but usually one or two treatments are enough.

Boils are painful but can be resolved naturally. Diet needs to be cleaned up, only food that looks like food (nothing processed), more fluids, fresh fruits, vegetables, less or no fried foods, enemas if constipated may be helpful, probiotics helpful.
