As early as 200 B.C Greek physician Hippocrates prescribed the first "Aspirin™" by recommending the bark and leaves of the white willow tree to relieve pain and fever. This laid the ground work for the eventual synthesis of salicin– one ingredient of white willow bark. Carl R. Gerhardt first synthesized a better absorbed chemical cousin to salicin in 1853 - acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Bayer trademarked the anti-platelet drug as Aspirin in 1889. The drug is not as safe as the natural counterpart. The side effects of Aspirin™ are so severe that they can cause a higher death rate relative to the populations who do not take it.(1) Fortunately, the pain relieving ability, as well as any purported cardiovascular benefits, of the anti-platelet drug can be procured without the risk. Simply use the forgotten tea white willow bark. Its track record for safety is impeccable. References:Kauffman, Joel. Should You Take Aspirin to Prevent Heart Attack?
