Slippery Elm Bark

Slippery Elm Bark – 1 oz.
Harvested from the inner bark of the Ulmus rubra tree, Slippery Elm Bark has long been a staple in traditional herbalism for its soothing, mucilaginous properties. When mixed with hot water, it forms a smooth, comforting tea that’s especially favored during times of digestive or throat discomfort.

Ingredients:
100% dried, cut Slippery Elm bark (Ulmus rubra).

Preparation Techniques:

• Tea/Infusion: Steep 1 teaspoon in 8 oz. of hot (not boiling) water for 5–10 minutes. Stir well to activate its naturally soothing texture.

• Herbal Porridge: Mix with warm water or milk to create a gruel-like consistency, often used as a gentle food during illness or recovery.

• Can be blended with marshmallow root, licorice, or cinnamon for added flavor and benefit.

Medicinal Benefits:
Slippery elm is revered for its ability to coat and soothe irritated tissues, especially in the digestive tract and throat. Traditionally used for heartburn, coughs, sore throats, and gastrointestinal discomfort, it acts as a gentle, natural demulcent.

Fun Fact:
Native American communities have used slippery elm bark for centuries as both a food source during times of scarcity and as a remedy for wounds, ulcers, and internal inflammation. Its name comes from the slick, gel-like texture it forms when wet.
