Antiviral Compounds in Neem
ثبت نشده
چکیده
From the common cold that sweeps through neighborhoods every winter to AIDS, West Nile and avian flu, viral infections are among the most challenging facing researchers around the world. Neem has traditionally been used as an antiviral, and animal and laboratory research shows promising results. While researchers still have not pinpointed how neem works, it appears that compounds in neem may make it difficult for the virus to reproduce, thus minimizing the impact of an infection.
