White Willow Bark Extract Salicin Powder
What is salicin?
Salicin is a natural active ingredient extracted from the branches and bark of the weeping willow (Salix babylonica L.) using modern extraction technology. Its preparation process includes key steps such as alcohol extraction, extraction, chromatography and crystallization. This active substance, known as the "natural aspirin", is widely used in traditional medicine to treat infection symptoms such as fever, colds, and flu, as well as rheumatism, headaches and various inflammatory pains. Studies have shown that salicin is the key ingredient in the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of white willow bark, and its characteristics are mild but long-lasting effects. Clinical trials have confirmed that a compound preparation containing 100ng of salicin can significantly improve the pain relief effect of arthritis patients after two months of continuous use.
Efficacy and application
Treatment of Fever, Colds, and Infections
● As "natural aspirin," salicylin can be used to alleviate mild fever, colds, flu, rheumatic diseases, headaches, and inflammatory pain.
● Compared to synthetic aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid), salicylin has fewer gastrointestinal side effects. It requires metabolism in the liver to form salicylic acid before taking effect, resulting in a slower but more prolonged action.
Relief of Arthritis Pain and Lower Back Pain
● Salicylin in willow bark has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, with a slower onset but a longer duration of action than regular aspirin.
Clinical studies show:
● A compound formulation containing 100 ng of salicylin, when taken continuously for two months, can improve arthritis pain.
● Daily intake of 1,360 mg of willow bark extract (containing 240 mg of salicylin) for two weeks can relieve joint pain/arthritis.
● An extract containing 240 mg of salicylin can reduce lower back pain episodes within 4 weeks.
Skin Care: Exfoliation, Anti-irritation, Soothing the Skin
● Patent research indicates that salicylin can reduce skin sensitivity and improve atopic dermatitis as well as type I and IV skin irritations.
● Similar to aspirin, it helps alleviate diaper rashes, skin irritation, and sunburns (recommended concentration is around 5%).
● It is also suitable for herpes-related inflammation and post-sun recovery.
