Dr. Ted Price leads an academic neuroscience research team at the University of Texas at Dallas. Their work led to a breakthrough in the field of pain research. And that breakthrough led directly to Ted’s™ Pain Cream. You probably have heard of resveratrol, the powerful anti-aging molecule found in red wine (ours comes from japanese knotweed, but it’s the same stuff). Well it turns out resveratrol may do a lot more than just keep away wrinkles. Here’s where salicylic acid comes in (which we get from wintergreen plants, hence the minty fragrance of our cream). Salicylic acid might be the oldest pain reliever known to humans. But combine it with resveratrol, put it on something that hurts, suddenly, by all appearances, there’s brand new, very exciting chemistry happening. All with nothing but two simple, nature-made products.
