Naturopathic Physician Questions Neem leaves

Have you heard of eating neem leaves for blood disorders?

My friend was talking to me about fresh neem leaves and how they can help blood disorders. Is this true? What do neem leaves do?

I have not. Neem has been used for many things both internally or externally. Please be careful with what the internet and social media tell you. The best place to start is with a local herb store or health food store where they have more herb books that discuss herb use and what they treat.
Hello, Great question. No Neem does not have a lot of evidence for it's use in blood or cardiovascular disorders at this time. Dr. Maggie Rex ND, LM, CPM [cid:f2ed36a1-890c-4654-9825-11e5c94a5f84] Phone: 5412599184 Fax: 877-781-5801 701 N 5th st B-1010 Lebanon, OR 97355
Neem leaves are used for the cardiovascular system. I would suggest that you try to narrow down what you are exactly looking for so that you are not creating any more issues.
Hi, while short-term use of neem leaf tea and eating neem leaves have been known to have many benefits, including blood sugar balance, skin health, and more, taking too many or taking it for too long has potential for negative effects such as affecting the kidneys. If you do want to take neem leaf as a treatment, I suggest doing it under the supervision of an herbalist or naturopath. They can provide you with specific instructions on dosing based on your particular treatment goal.
