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
500 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.
