Salicylic acid is a strong irritant that causes bleeding and ulcers in the mouth and stomach but is effective at lowering high body temperatures. Acetylsalicylic acid is a derivative of it. In 1893, Felix Hoffmann and Heinrich Dreser named it aspirin. 10 grams, or 30 tablets, is a lethal dose for an adult because it will make your blood too acidic. A questionaby helpful hint: a way to raise yout salicylate intake is to drink a lot of tea.
Crazy how we use that to get BETTER.
