Slippery Elm Bark Powder 1kg

What is Slippery Elm Bark Powder?

Slippery Elm (Ulmus rubra) is a native North American tree whose inner bark has been used for centuries by Indigenous peoples as a powerful medicinal herb. When mixed with water, the inner bark produces a thick, gel-like substance called mucilage — a natural demulcent that coats, soothes, and protects irritated and inflamed tissues throughout the digestive tract. Today, Slippery Elm Bark Powder is one of the most trusted natural remedies for gut health, digestive healing, and inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal system.

Key Benefits

• Gut & IBS Relief: The mucilage in Slippery Elm coats the lining of the digestive tract, soothing irritation and providing relief from symptoms of IBS, Crohn’s disease, and colitis.
• Acid Reflux & Heartburn Support: Creates a protective barrier in the oesophagus and stomach, helping to neutralise excess acid and relieve the discomfort of acid reflux and GERD.
• Digestive Healing: Supports the repair and regeneration of the gut lining, making it particularly beneficial for those with leaky gut syndrome or intestinal inflammation.
• Soothes Inflammation: Contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that reduce inflammation throughout the digestive system and beyond.
• Constipation & Diarrhoea Relief: Acts as a gentle bulking agent that can help normalise bowel movements in both constipation and diarrhoea.
• Respiratory Support: Traditionally used to soothe sore throats, coughs, and irritated mucous membranes in the respiratory tract.
• Nutritional Support: Contains vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants including calcium, magnesium, and vitamins C and E that contribute to overall health.
