I actually learned about neem oil from casual gardening. Keeping those pests off my damn apple trees!
There was one thing that caught my attention, and it's only because of specific knowledge. I've always understood that neem oil inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi through interruption by direct contact. As such, doesn't consuming it in a drink negate any benefits? I would imagine the active ingredient becoming diluted and/or inactivated by digestion. In fact, I've been told that oral consumption of it isn't suggested at all. Only topical.
