The Many Benefits of White Willow BarkMost people are familiar with aspirin, but not everyone knows that aspirin actually comes from an herb known as white willow bark. White willow bark has been used for centuries to relieve pain, inflammation, and fever. In fact, it was one of the first herbs to be studied by scientists. Today, we know that white willow bark contains a natural compound called salicin, which is similar to aspirin in its ability to reduce pain and inflammation. Let's take a closer look at some of the other benefits of this amazing herb. In addition to pain relief, white willow bark can also be used to treat headaches, muscle aches, arthritis, and menstrual cramps. It can also help reduce fever. White willow bark extract is sometimes used as a natural alternative to ibuprofen or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
