Many years ago, as a boy growing up in Amaizar in my distant village in the Imo State Isuokporo Autonomous Community in Nigeria, there was a privilege that was not found in young boys of my age. First of all, the village is an agricultural community and many people are engaged in agriculture. One of the most important things I enjoyed as a boy in the village is that I was experimenting with so many things. One of those is the tree called Village Pharmacy - Neem Tree.
The Nimes factory was an integral part of home relief at the time. We regard it as a very important tree. Norm Factory was like a crucible because it is usually a young child who becomes sick very often. The Nîmes tree has become friends with most people in the village. They use leaves and bark for medicine or take shade under them. The uniqueness of the tree attracted researchers. We have to take samples for investigation to find out their economic importance. As a result, a more diverse economic and medical value of Neem tree was discovered.
Neem tree called village pharmacy has so many simple ways to distinguish it from other trees in people's life. Neem tree proved to have the power to repel insects, especially those harmful to people. Collect the leaves, dry them under the sun and crush to powder. Mix the powder with petrolatum and rub it to your body. This combination rejects insects including mosquitoes. It is also a treatment for skin diseases, mild breaks, burns, wounds and so on. Sometimes you can repel insects, including mosquitoes, using a mixture of petrolatum and a 1: 5 ratio neem powder (pure dry neme leaf powder) insects, skin diseases, mild cuts, pain, wounds etc. It is useful as a therapeutic agent.
Boil the leaves of Neem with water and add a little rose water to prevent itching and excessive sweat. In case of conjunctivitis, it will be used as a sealant for itching for about 10 minutes. In addition, pure Neem oil mixed with coconut oil and sandalwood oil can prevent the infestation of lice, dandruff and other scalp infections.
Neem can treat sore throat without using antibacterial agents. People gargle with the water of the leaf of Nyme to which honey has been added. For pimples, acne, skin infections, mix pure neem leaf powder with water and apply it to the affected part. For jaundice we recommend neem leaf juice (15-30 ml) and half of the amount of honey ingested on a hunger for seven days. In order to effectively prevent mosquito breeding, seeded neem seeds and neem oil spread all over breeding grounds. Neem product completely prevents egg laying for 7 days. No more, the Nimes factory is a different way to benefit people. It is because of its importance to the health of the community that people named it village pharmacy.
