“NEEM: A hands on guide to one of the world’s most versatile herbs” says under:
Antioxidants – One of the hottest topics in the natural food industry is antioxidants, probably because they play a critical role in helping to prevent damage that may play a significant role in initiating chronic degenerative diseases.
Oxidative stress is a natural process that occurs as cells produce energy.
Free radicals, a by-product of this process, damage cells (including DNA) and tissue.
The problem occurs when the body’s resources for quenching these free radicals or repairing the damage they cause aren’t adequate.
Antioxidants are in many foods and many of the health benefits of foods like blueberries, broccoli and cranberries are directly related to their antioxidant levels.
The ORAC test (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity), described online at www.usingneem.com, shows that all forms of neem are extraordinarily high in antioxidants, far higher than foods on the high antioxidant lists.
With its high antioxidant levels it may help to explain why neem is known around the world as “the village pharmacy”.

Contains:
Dried Australian Neem Leaves.
Small amount per cup – 1/4 teaspoon equivalent to 1 leaf.
1 – 2 cups per day
The Neem leaves are collected direct from the trees before they have a chance to fall onto the ground.
This eliminates the risk of aflatoxin contamination.
We then dry our leaves on racks for several days and then the leaves are checked for moisture content before being packaged.
Neem has a bitter taste so, for those with a sweet tooth, you can add honey, sugar or add it to your own favourite tea.
In summer it can be cooled down in the fridge to enjoy.
