SOLARAYWhite Willow 400mg - White Willow Bark Capsules - Wellness Support - Herbal Supplement w/Naturally Occurring Salicin, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Vegan, 60-Day Guarantee, 100 Servings, 100 VegCaps

This product works for me and this is my 2nd or 3rd bottle. I find that if I take 2 pills, it will work for 12hrs just like Aleve. This being said, my father tried it, and found it did not work for him, although he has bad knee problems. I am not sure if it takes a while for your body to get used to it for it to work, or he just needed something really stronger for his condition. I take it for everything I would take a pain reliever for, headaches, muscle pain, cramps, fatigue and swelling etc etc. I find it works for me. Just don't be expecting it to be like fentanyl or something. White Willow Bark is a great hidden natural gem that is underpromoted. So if you are looking for a more natural approach that is better for your liver etc etc, I would give it a try.

My wife, in excruciating pain for many years from a herniated disc, fibromyalgia, and fractures from a fall, tried this one night after praying for relief which OTC painkillers were not helping (prescription painkillers had too many side effects). It worked! As a chemical engineer I had been scoffing at all the supplements she had been buying. But I recalled from Chemistry 101 that willowbark was the precursor to chemical aspirin, i.e Bayer. I researched it and learned that a standard capsule of 400mg has an aspirin equivalent of 248mg. But that is less than a standard size aspirin tablet with 325mg, how could that help? When I read that natural willowbark does not corrode the stomach like chemical aspirin does, and that it is absorbed differently and more quickly, I became more interested. One could take Six capsules per day. I advised my wife to try one capsule every 4 hours - no pain; then one every 6 hours, - no pain; then one every 12 hours - no pain! I had been applying 5% Lidocaine patches to her back each night so she could sleep. No longer needed! She takes a capsule every 12 hours but sometimes forgets because the pain is gone. But the pain does return, though not so intense, if she goes beyond 12 hours between capsules. She tried another brand and insists that it did not provide relief like Solarsy. Strangely, she does not recall why she bought willowbark or even that it had pain-relieving qualities nor why it was sitting on her nightstand. So she attributes this whole discovery to her prayer that night, though she had been praying fervently for pain relief for many years! A mystery. But a welcome one. No more screams from pain! No more anguished look on her face. FYI - I am retired and have no connection with the suppliers nor any pharmaceutical entities nor any financial interests in such.

I never write reviews (yes I know, I always think it’s cringy to say but I had to insist). I’ve been an extreme advil pill popper since I was 9. I got my period at a really young age and that’s the only thing that ever seemed to work and fast. Two years ago, I went on a hiatus towards all toxins, non-natural everything. I do a lot of research on herbs. I’ve recommended these pills three times to other people and they have all bought it and loved it. I used it for my period specifically and sometimes headaches. Now for the cramps I will give you two scenarios. I take two or three when I start feeling cramps and I probably pop another two or three after a couple hours and I’m good. No I don’t pair this with hot tea, but yes I do use a heating pad on occasion. If I feel like my cramps are going to be bad, I will pop just one about one to two days before I get it. Now, for me, I’ve noticed that they do kick in fast but they don’t last as long (I’m very healthy with my eating). I have talked to two people who are meat eaters and they have told me that the pills work for them fine, it just takes a while to kick it. Get them, they are really good, you will see how you can actually remove yourself from the prescription pain killers. I’m Ngl, I was super hesitant thinking nothing will stop my pain like an advil will, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised

Well, I originally bought these as an alternative to taking otc pain pills for my joints (EDS), but unfortunately they didn't really help (if you're looking for joint relief I highly recommend trying zyflamend!)I did however accidentally discover that they're AMAZING for menstrual cramps (I have endo)

The bark of white willow contains salicin, which is a chemical similar to aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). In the 1800s, salicin was used to create aspirin. I think Solaray is a top brand and I feel confident that I'm getting what I paid for when purchasing products from them. I take white willow bark to cure my headaches. This supplement does not bother my stomach which to me is outstanding. I usually take one pill and see if my headache goes away in say about 45 minutes. If it does not go away I will take one additional pill to get the job done.

This product works. For me, it is the best way to injest aspirin without the problem of eating up the stomach lining, because it is natural. I don't take too much because it really works to thin my blood and too much will cause me to bleed more than normal with small cuts. But my heart loves it and my blood pressure and heart rate is excellent. I workout regularly and find it helps a lot.if

Good product

Some guy at a vitamin shop recommended Willow Bark to me for migraines and I wish I could thank him for improving my life. I can’t live without it, and this brand is very affordable and the formula is effective. 2 caps help with migraines, menstrual cramps, body aches, or inflammation in general. I don’t take these regularly, only when having recurrent pains. Recommended.
