Organic Slippery Elm Bark is harvested from the slippery elm tree, native to the Eastern and Central United States and Canada. This bark is renowned for its high mucilage content, which gives it its signature “slippery” texture. It is a natural remedy that has been cherished for centuries for its ability to calm sore throats and gastrointestinal upset. It is also used topically for skin care, making it an ideal ingredient for tinctures, teas, and throat lozenges

Considerations & Safety:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: There is limited information about the safety of slippery elm during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It is recommended to consult a healthcare provider before using slippery elm in these cases.

• Medication interactions: Slippery elm may affect the absorption of certain medications by forming a protective layer that could prevent proper absorption. It is best to take slippery elm at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after other medications.

• Gastrointestinal upset: Some people may experience mild gastrointestinal discomfort, such as bloating or gas, when using slippery elm. Start with a smaller dose to see how your body responds.

• Allergies: If you are allergic to other plants in the Elm family, such as American elm, you should avoid slippery elm.
