White oak is distributed throughout the northeastern U.S. and Canada, although it does occur further west as evidenced by the fact it is the state tree of Connecticut, Maryland and Illinois. For centuries, the wood of the tree has been used to build ships, wine barrels and authentic mission-style furniture.

White oak powdered bark, which contains up to 20% tannins, potassium, iron and vitamin B-12, is added to tonics and teas or is encapsulated. The herb is also used to make astringent washes and pastes for topical use.
