This remarkable finding from nature was also the basis of “Aspirin” in modern day medicine.

Why willow should be a fine powder:

Willow should be ground fine and not resemble chunky or gritty pieces.

The fineness of the powder ensures the largest surface for absorption by the body.

When finely ground it should be kept fresh in an airtight pack.
