Willow Bark (from the Salix tree family) is often called “nature’s aspirin” because it contains salicin, a compound that the body converts into salicylic acid, similar to aspirin. It has been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine, especially for pain and inflammation.


Benefits of Willow Bark

  • Natural Pain Reliever: Effective for headaches, back pain, and general body aches.
  • Anti-inflammatory: Helps reduce swelling, stiffness, and joint pain.
  • Arthritis Support: Often used for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Fever & Cold Relief: Traditionally used to reduce fever and ease flu-like symptoms.
  • Heart Health: Improves circulation and may support cardiovascular health when used moderately.
  • Skin Health: Extracts are used in skincare for acne, oily skin, and exfoliation (due to salicylic acid).

How It’s Taken

  • 2 capsules daily 
  • Drink plenty of spring water
