White Oak Bark is native to England and has been naturalized in the U.S., where it is found mainly in the East. It grows as high as 100 feet and can live as long as 1,000 years.
The key substances of white oak are tannin and quercin. Tannin is present in the bark at approximately 11 percent and accounts for white oak’s bitter and astringent qualities. White oak contains the minerals manganese, calcium and zinc. The active constituents in oak bark are tannin (phlobatannin, ellagitannins, gallic acid) and quercetin.
Tannin content (galls are even higher in tannins than the bark) plays an important role; it binds with protein of the tissues, strengthens them and makes impermeable to bacterial invasion and infection. It makes it rather useful for stomach and digestive concerns, for skin health. Quercetin is used for strengthening the capillaries and veins. White Oak also contains the minerals manganese, potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, and zinc.
