I have chronic inflammation in my head, neck, face, and jaw. Possibly TMJ, possibly nerve damage, I have no clue. Surprisingly I can control it with just 1 tablet of Ibuprofen, or two tabs of Aleve. However, I am wanting to get away from pharmaceuticals. So, while trying to do this I opted to try out a well known herb that is used in aiding in the termination of inflammation; white willow bark. Well, it didn't do squat. It upset my stomach a bit and when I burp, it would taste like it. I know, it sounds nasty, and I apologize. But, it *was* nasty. So, instead of wasting it and not having it work, I now use it in a facial mask. Haha. Gotta find a use for it somewhere, right?
Bottom line, it didn't work for me. I would give it zero stars.. but its an herb, and herbs are awesome. So, it deserves two stars just for being an herb. ;)
