New Delhi, October 19, 2024: Taking the first step towards healthy eating means a healthy Kitchen, and of course a healthy Pantry. However, we also have to keep in mind a thousand things when purchasing the products to stock and maintain them. From availability to the right ingredients, we must keep track of everything. In our quest for clean, healthy eating, we often overlook a powerful ally hiding in plain sight – the humble neem. This versatile plant has been revered for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine for its remarkable healing properties, and now its benefits extend to the produce we consume daily.
Dr. Nirrmala Kotharii, General Secretary of the World Neem Organisation, comments, “Neem has been an integral part of the Indian health and hygiene system for centuries. In India, the Neem tree is often planted in front of homes and is used as a sustainable solution for medicinal and remedial purposes. ITC Nimyle is testimony to this promise of the goodness of neem and the natural cleaning properties of the tree.
