Extra Strength White Willow Bark (PE 15% Salicin) Cream The bark of the willow tree is the source of one of our most potent health products, acetylsalicylic acid, known as anti-swelling. Natives used several varieties of the willow; they wove baskets with willow, used willow for pain and possibly decreasing fever; the gray willow (S. exigua) was called "Kosi tsube" by the Paiutes and the Shoshones. They used willow twigs with salt, steeped and drank for occasional constipation relief. Willow was one of the first herbs to be scientifically investigated. In the 19th century, the French chemist, Leroux, extracted the active ingredient "salicine." By 1852 it was being synthetically produced, and by 1899 a less irritating acetyl salicylic acid was manufactured and marketed as anti-swelling. This was the first plant-derived product of the modern generation. The white willow bark was used to help support fevers and headaches. Unlike the synthetic product, acetyl salicylic acid, called anti-swelling which can cause stomach irritation, white willow bark contains tannins, which are actually good for the digestion. The tea product is peeled in spring from moderately large branches and dried. The bark comes from various willow species, including the white willow (Salix alba L.), basket willow or osier (Salix daphnoides L.), and brittle willow, or withy (Salix fagilis L.). A strong tea made from the inner bark of the willow tree was once thought to help support symptoms of health concerns. The framework of the vapor bath lodge of the Natives was made of willow po Traditionally used to help support pain, fever, stiffness, headache, swelling, irritations and much more.
