White Willow Bark
Salix alba
Nature’s Answer to Pain Relief & Glowing Skin
Source & Key Compound
Derived from the bark of the white willow tree (Salix alba), this herbal remedy has been used for millennia. Its active ingredient, salicin, converts to salicylic acid in the body, mirroring the effects of aspirin but in a gentler, slower-release form.
