A few concepts
Before we talk about the beneficial properties of this plant, we will make a small excursion into the terminology and concepts of Ayurveda. Ayurveda considers plants from the standpoint of energy. All plants are classified by properties such as taste (race). It can be sweet, sour, salty, astringent, bitter, or spicy. Each taste is formed by two elements. Sweet is made up of earth and water, sour is made up of earth and fire, bitter is made up of air and ether, sharp is made up of fire and air, and astringent is made up of earth and air.
In addition to the taste, the thermal effect of the plant is important, namely, their ability to warm or cool (virya). Vipak-the effect that plants have after digestion. Vipak reduces the six flavors to three: sweet, sour, and spicy. The classification also takes into account the ability of herbs to dry or moisten, as well as properties such as lightness and heaviness. The taste of the plant, vipak, and virya have a specific effect on the body, on all three doshas. And, accordingly, they determine the place of the plant in the treatment of various diseases.
Bitter tonics
Neem (Neem) belongs to the group of bitter tonics. The bitter taste, consisting of ether and air, is the coldest and driest. Therefore, the word “tonic” is not used herein in the classical Western sense. Bitter herbs can dry up tissues and vital juices and can cause muscle spasms. They are rarely prescribed to chronic and debilitated patients.
Bitter tonics are designed to reduce excess, cleanse the body of toxins, and not make up for any deficiency. They are used in cleansing, antipyretic therapy, with sedative purposes. In small amounts, bitter herbs stimulate digestion, mainly in patients suffering from fever and an excess of Pitta.
Bitter tonics are indicated for feverish conditions. They don’t just eliminate the fever, they eliminate the infection that caused the disease. They destroy the Ama, so they are indicated for any fever caused by the accumulation of Ama (arthritis such as Vata and Kapha, colds).
By reducing the heat, they reduce intoxication, cool the blood, and purify the toxins. In addition to this, they improve metabolism, regulate liver function, and reduce bile production. They are indicated for jaundice, hepatitis, and diabetes. Regulate the metabolism, reduce the amount of fat, reduce weight.
