When we think of the origin of willow bark we tend to thought that Native Americans were the first to use willow bark yet, thats not true.
Ancient Egyptians, Sumerians, Romans, Greeks, and Indian Civilizations as a pain reliever and as a fever reducer.
These ancient peoples knew of the effectiveness of White Willow Bark through their own experience, yet, thanks to technology advancements, discoveries were made concerning the active agent within willow bark: Salicin.
This discovery would later evolve into the creation of a now well known drug: Aspirin which is commonly used to help manage pain & fevers.
