White Willow bark

An herb that contains Salicin (an aspirin like compound) that may help with pain relief but it is not aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). It is added to thermogenic formulas containing caffeine and ephedrine because it seems to block a prostaglandin that blocks fat release to be utilized as fuel. May even be a COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2) inhibitor which can help support pain relief.
