Description
White Willow Bark Extract
Indications and Usage
White Willow Bark contains salicin, which the body converts to
salicylic acid and has the same effect on the body as aspirin
without any of the side effects. In fact, White Willow Bark was the
basis for the synthesis of aspirin. History of usage of White
Willow Bark goes back as far as **0 BC when ancient Chinese healers
began using it to control pain. Native Americans also discovered
the value of the Willow tree for relieving pain from headaches and
rheumatism and reducing fevers.
The benefits of White Willow Bark today are that it is an
anti-inflammatory, a fever reducer, an analgesic, an
anti-rheumatic, and an astringent. Specifically, it helps to
relieve headaches; helps to ease pain associated with inflammatory
conditions like rheumatism, arthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome;
and helps to control fevers. Studies have shown that if you feel
better, you are more likely to want to stick to your weight loss
plan and because of that, White Willow Bark can aid in your diet
goals.
Salicin safely be taken long-term at recommended doses. Higher than
commonly recommended doses of this herb can cause stomach upset,
nausea, or tinnitus (ringing in the ears). If any of these
reactions develop. Stop taking the herb.
Avoid white willow bark, which can irritate the stomach, if you are
sensitive to aspirin, or if you have an ulcer or other
gastrointestinal disorder.
As with aspirin products, never give white willow bark to children
or teenagers under age *6 with symptoms of the cold, the flu, or
chicken pox. Although white willow bark is unlikely to cause the
rare but potentially fatal condition called Reye's syndrome in such
cases_it is metabolized differently than aspirin_the similarity to
aspirin is close enough to warrant caution.
