Dear Nutrition Lover,
The bark of white willow contains salicin, which is a chemical similar to aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid).
In combination with the herb’s powerful anti-inflammatory plant compounds (called flavonoids), salicin is thought to be responsible for the pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects of the herb.
Willow Bark is the origin as to where the name Bayer came about in the 1800’s.
All forms of medicine are derived from plants and nature.
