INTRODUCTION

                   Tree Bark similar to skin, bark is the outer covering of a tree. It adapts to protect the living tree from the environment, and protects delicate tissue from diseases and insect attack. It is composed of non living tissue on the outside and living tissue on the inside. From cork to canoes, bark can be used to create a variety of practical objects. Currently, the uses of bark are both endless and pragmatic. There is an enormous amount of research being conducted in the medical field to determine the benefits of bark.
