Salicin itself cannot cure diseases, but must be converted into salicylic acid through gut flora breakdown within the human body to exert its medicinal effect.
If you take salicylic acid compounds directly, the drug utilization rate will be greatly improved.
Therefore, Joseph had the pharmaceutical factory conduct extensive experiments on the production of salicylic acid years ago. However, it wasn't until the beginning of this year that a scholar named Antoine de Fucqrua successfully converted salicin into salicylic acid by oxidation.
After testing by the pharmaceutical factory, the efficacy of sodium salicylate is 3 to 5 times higher than that of salicin!
It can be imagined that once this drug is put into production, it will surely bring huge profits to the pharmaceutical factory.
