Succinic acid, also commonly known as butanoic acid, is a type of dicarboxylic acid most commonly found in plants and animal tissues. Succinic acid is also known as The Spirit of Amber. It is named so because when it was first discovered, it was taken from amber by pulverizing and distilling it using a sand bath. It was initially used explicitly for rheumatic aches and pains.
