Slippery elm powder?!


Question: Have you used it and what benefit did you recieve


Answers: Have you used it and what benefit did you recieve

I haven't used it but I do prescribe it for my patients. It is particularly useful for any inflammatory condition of the gastro-intestinal tract. For lower gut problems you can get away with slippery elm tablets. For upper gut problems you need to use the powder which is mixed in water to form a jelly-like paste - only problem is it tastes disgusting! It's the herb of choice for any condition where there is acid-upsurge, particularly if there are oesophageal erosions (Barrett's oesophagus).

I have used it on my kids when they were stopped up, or really sick..Helps them poop...
