Health Benefits of Organic Slippery Elm Bark:
Soothes Digestive Tract:
- Gastrointestinal Relief: Slippery elm is rich in mucilage, a gel-like substance that coats and soothes the lining of the digestive tract. This makes it beneficial for conditions like acid reflux, gastritis, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
- Ulcer Healing: The mucilage in slippery elm can help protect the stomach lining from acidity, promoting healing in cases of stomach ulcers.
Relieves Constipation and Diarrhea:
- Natural Laxative: Slippery elm can act as a gentle laxative, helping to relieve constipation by softening stools and promoting regular bowel movements.
- Diarrhea Relief: The mucilage can also absorb excess water in the intestines, helping to firm up stools and reduce the frequency of diarrhea.
Supports Respiratory Health:
- Cough and Sore Throat Relief: The soothing properties of slippery elm make it effective in relieving coughs and sore throats. It’s often used in lozenges or teas to help coat and calm irritated mucous membranes.
- Bronchitis and Asthma: Slippery elm may help reduce inflammation and irritation in the respiratory tract, providing relief for conditions like bronchitis and asthma.
Promotes Skin Health:
- Wound Healing: Slippery elm has been traditionally used to treat wounds, burns, and other skin irritations. It can be applied topically as a poultice to soothe and promote healing.
- Eczema and Psoriasis Relief: The anti-inflammatory and soothing properties of slippery elm may help alleviate symptoms of skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
Alleviates Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Symptoms:
- IBD Support: Slippery elm is often used as a complementary treatment for inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. It helps soothe the inflamed intestines and may reduce symptoms like pain and diarrhea.
Soothes Urinary Tract:
- UTI Relief: Slippery elm’s mucilage can help soothe the lining of the urinary tract, providing relief from irritation and discomfort associated with urinary tract infections (UTIs).
- Bladder Health: It may also help promote bladder health by reducing inflammation and irritation.
Relieves Heartburn and Acid Reflux:
- Natural Antacid: The mucilage in slippery elm forms a protective barrier in the stomach and esophagus, which can help reduce the symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux by preventing stomach acid from irritating the esophageal lining.
Supports Overall Gut Health:
- Prebiotic Effects: Slippery elm’s mucilage may act as a prebiotic, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, which supports overall digestive health and immune function.
- Gut Lining Protection: It helps strengthen and protect the gut lining, potentially reducing the risk of leaky gut syndrome.
Relieves Symptoms of Hemorrhoids: (so sorry, but we’re gonna go there. 🙄 )
- Soothing Effect: Slippery elm can help reduce the pain and discomfort associated with hemorrhoids by soothing the inflamed tissue and promoting healing. ( I know, a little TMI, BUT just in case someone out there, might needta know. )
Dosage: 1600 mg daily, divided into 2-3 doses.
Precautions: It’s best to take Organic Slippery Elm 2 hrs before or after other medications you might already be taking, as it can slow the absorption of other medications.
Since slippery elm contains a high amount of mucilage, it is pretty important to drink plenty of water when taking it, just to ensure proper hydration and avoid constipation. No sense adding insult to injury, if YKWIM?!
