White Willow Bark Cut is a dried cut bark traditionally used as a natural source of salicin and often compared with the botanical origins of aspirin-type compounds. It is commonly prepared as a decoction and traditionally used to help ease headaches, backache, nerve pain, joint discomfort, menstrual cramps and rheumatism or gout-related discomfort. Because it contains salicylate-type compounds, it should be avoided by people allergic to aspirin or sensitive to salicylates. The cut bark format is easy to simmer and strain for home preparations.

♡ Why we love it: White willow bark is a classic traditional pain-comfort herb. The cut format is practical for slow-simmered decoctions and easier to strain than powder.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.
