White Willow Bark Herbal Extract

$10.00

Salix alba Herbal Extract 1:4 50%


6.00 per ounce

​​

Also known as Common Willow and European Willow


History: The Ancient Greek physician Dioscoides wrote that the bark of the White Willow tree has the ability to reduce fevers and pain. It was only discovered in modern times that the tree was rich in salicin, a natural pain reliever. In fact, the original recipe for aspirin called for the bark of the White Willow tree, although the modern aspirin is completely synthetic.


Uses: Willow bark is used to ease pain and reduce inflammation. Researchers believe that the chemical salicin, found in willow bark, is responsible for these effects. However, studies show several other components of willow bark, including plant chemicals called polyphenols and flavonoids, have antioxidant, fever-reducing, antiseptic, and immune-boosting properties. Some studies show willow is as effective as aspirin for reducing pain and inflammation (but not fever), and at a much lower dose. Scientists think that may be due to other compounds in the herb.​


Active Ingredients: Glycosides (1.5-11%): salicylates (salicin, salicortin, populin, fragilin, tremulacin) · Tannins (8-20%), Aromatic aldehydes and acids: (salidroside, vanillin, syringin, salicylic acid, caffeic and ferulic acids), Salicyl alcohol (saligenin),  Flavonoids​

​

Actions: Analgesic,  Anticoagulant, antithrombotic​, Anti-inflammatory​, Antifungal​, Antipyretic;​

History: Mugwort has a long tradition in the folklore and mystic tales of Europe where it was used to protect travelers, keep clothes from moths, and heal tired feet. Mugwort was also used as an herb in savory dishes. In Ancient Greece, Mugwort was given to help in childbirth and palsy.


In traditional Asian medicine, mugwort or wormwood is used in a process called moxibustion. Mugwort or wormwood leaves are formed into sticks or cones about the size and shape of a cigar, and then burned on or over an acupuncture point to release energy.


Moxibustion has been practiced for more than 3,000 years in China, and advocates claim that it can strengthen and warm your blood and life energy, and treat inflammations and cancers. This study shows how moxa smoke can improve the autonomic nervous system and induce a relaxing effect on the body.


Moxibustion is also used to treat menstrual cramping and to help a baby in the breech position turn. According to this studyTrusted Source, the practice does appear to increase fetal movements, helping the baby turn to a normal head-down, or cephalic, position. However, the authors conclude that more research needs to be done to determine moxibustion’s real effectiveness.


Other uses

Mugwort can also be used to stimulate a women's menstrual cycle. It can bring on delayed menstruation and in the past was used to induce abortions. Pregnant and breast-feeding women are advised to avoid the herb because of this potential risk.


In European and American herbal practices, mugwort is used to treat stomach and intestinal problems such as:


colic

gas

diarrhea

constipation
