A Tribute to the Doctors and Scientists Who Supported My Neem Research since 1994
This is a tribute to all doctors, scientists, and Neem researchers to thank you for working, coordinating, helping and supporting my Neem research and Neem books since 1994.
As one of the few North American Neem researchers, as well as an educator, formulator, lecturer, writer and founder of Ferlow Botanicals (1993) and Neem Research (2013), my goal has always been to share my experience of over 33 years in the natural health care industry for free with the public at large. I have 71 years business experience – 20 years in Europe, 51 years in North America – helping people to improve and maintain their healthy lifestyle and wellness and create happiness!
Over the years I have worked and cooperated with world renowned professionals who have supported my work and especially my four books about the miraculous versatile medicinal Neem tree from India that offers better plant, human, animal, and environmental health.
Ferlow Botanicals is still the only 100% Canadian owned and operated family business manufacturing Ayurvedic herbal personal Neem care products. Further, our company was the first to introduce in 1993 a line of herbal personal care products without harmful toxic chemical ingredients to the North American market – dealing mainly with holistic practitioners/clinics and specialty stores across Canada and parts of the USA!
I have been blessed working and connecting worldwide with professionals, most of them academics, that supported my work and research. In fact, I received 55 testimonials from 17 countries for my first book "Neem: Nature's Healing Gift to Humanity". The book received the 2019 annual Living Now Book Awards "GOLD MEDAL" in the category "Health & Wellness" by the Jenkins Group & Independent Publishers, Traverse City.
