aogubio Supply Slippery Elm Bark Extract powder/Slippery Elm Capsules
Product Description
Slippery Elm is a large, deciduous tree that is native to North America and grows in the moist, well-drained (but not waterlogged) woods of the eastern half of Canada and the United States. The tree may reach a height of sixty feet and may now also be found planted along streets, as well as in the forests throughout North America. Native American Indians were the first to discover the healing powers of the Slippery Elm and found that when the tree's inner bark comes in contact with water, the gummy substance (or mucilage) swells and produces a soothing, softening ointment. Native Americans applied it to heal wounds, and when it dried, it became a natural bandage, and they also wrapped Slippery Elm Bark around meat to prevent spoilage.

Function
- Anti-inflammatory: Slippery Elm Bark Extract has anti-inflammatory properties that reduce discomfort and swelling caused by inflammation. This makes it useful in treating inflammatory bowel disease (such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease) as well as other inflammation-related problems.
- Protects the gastrointestinal tract: Slippery elm bark extract helps form a protective mucosal barrier that covers the walls of the gastrointestinal tract, thereby reducing irritation and damage to the gastrointestinal tract from gastric acid and gastric enzymes. This makes it useful in the treatment of gastrointestinal problems such as gastritis, stomach ulcers, and esophagitis.
- Relieves Indigestion: Due to its soothing and lubricating properties, slippery elm bark extract is widely used to relieve indigestion symptoms such as stomach pain, heartburn, and acid reflux. It also improves food digestion and absorption.
- Relieves coughs and sore throats: Slippery elm bark extract soothes and lubricates the throat lining, helping to relieve coughs and sore throats. It is commonly used to treat throat irritation caused by coughs, sore throats, and colds.
