                                For millennia, ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians and Greeks, utilized Salix species, or willow, for its therapeutic properties. The powerful benefits of Salix leaves stem from their rich chemical profile, notably the compound salicin, a natural precursor to salicylic acid.
