Peace Everyone!

I am new to the forum and I'd like to share any information that may help out!
I have been using Neem oil for some time now, it possesses great properties including:

anti-viral
anti-bacterial,
anti-fungal
astringent

It also helps as a pesticide and a personal insect repellant!

I have been brushing my teeth with a kind of neem oil toothpaste. At first I thought it tasted revolting, kind of like a type of soap!:winksmiley02:
After trying it for a few days, I noticed that It was growing on me a little. I now don't really mind it at all. The main reason I purchased it was because it was fluoride free. It does seem pretty refreshing actually! (once I got past the soap visualizations):biggrin2:
