Brief Introduction

Salicin is a naturally occurring compound found in the bark of several species of trees, primarily North American in origin, that are from the willow, poplar, and aspen families. White willow, from whose Latin name, Salix alba, the term salicin is derived, is the most well known source of this compound, but it is found in a number of other trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants as well being synthesized commercially. It is a member of the glucoside family of chemicals and is used as an analgesic and antipyretic. Salicin is used as a precursor for the synthesis of salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, commonly known as aspirin.

A colorless, crystalline solid in its pure form, salicin has the chemical formula C13H18O7. Part of its chemical structure is equivalent to the sugar glucose, meaning it is classified as a glucoside. It is soluble, but not strongly so, in water and alcolhol. Salicin has a bitter taste and is a natural analgesic and antipyretic, or fever reducer. In large quantities, it can be toxic, and overdoses may lead to liver and kidney damage. In its raw form, it may be mildly irritating to skin, respiratory organs, and eyes.

DESCRIPTION: Randomized controlled trial comparing the safety and efficacy of drugs versus curcumin, the yellow pigment in the spice turmeric, for the treatment of autoimmune inflammatory rheumatoid arthritis.

Did you guess that’s what was on the cover of my latest DVD (https://nutritionfacts.org/2013/12/05/all-of-dr-gregers-dvds-now-downloadable)? Hard to appreciate the gorgeous color of fresh turmeric root unless you see it for yourself. You should be able to find it at any large Asian store. I incorporate it into my Natural Nausea Remedy Recipe (https://nutritionfacts.org/2013/05/28/dr-gregers-natural-nausea-remedy-recipe/). The inner color is almost fluorescent!

I’m afraid followers of NutritionFacts.org are going to get sick of turmeric, but there’s a load of important new research I felt I needed to cover. Next I’ll cover Turmeric Curcumin and Osteoarthritis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/turmeric-curcumin-and-osteoarthritis), then move to Boosting the Bioavailability of Curcumin (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/boosting-the-bioavailability-of-curcumin), and end (for now!) with a video on Who Shouldn’t Consume Curcumin or Turmeric (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/who-shouldnt-consume-curcumin-or-turmeric).

I’ve talked about treating autoimmune joint inflammation with diets full of plants in Diet & Rheumatoid Arthritis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/diet-rheumatoid-arthritis/) and Potassium and Autoimmune Disease (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/potassium-and-autoimmune-disease/).

If phenylbutazone sounds vaguely familiar, maybe you read my Q&A Is horse meat safe to eat? (https://nutritionfacts.org/questions/is-horse-meat-safe-to-eat/).

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at https://nutritionfacts.org/video/turmeric-curcumin-and-rheumatoid-arthritis/ and he’ll try to answer it!
