From Herbal
Descriptions by Truman Berst:
#3181 SLIPPERY ELM (Ulmus fulva) Slippery Elm is a very soothing and
nutritive herb. It is an excellent food for convalescence and for children.
Slippery Elm can be mixed with oatmeal and flavored with spices like
cinnamon and nutmeg. Its soothing action helps to alleviate gastrointestinal
irritation as well as irritated, sore throats, coughs, and dryness of
the lungs. Slippery Elm is easily assimilated in the body and will usually
stay down when all other foods cause nausea and vomiting. Slippery Elm
is beneficial for both constipation and diarrhea. Indications include:
weak digestive system; chest diseases; diarrhea; constipation; irritation
of the colon and intestines; spasming colon and bowel; dysentery; digestive
upset. As a poultice, Slippery Elm is very healing for ulcers, wounds,
boils, and bedsores. NOTE: collection of the inner bark kills the tree;
therefore, the outer bark is often substituted but it lacks the healing
powers of the inner bark. It is important to know your source and to
be conservative in the usage of this herb so as not to deplete the resources
of Slippery Elm.
Use 6-12 drops
in juice, water, under the tongue or as desired. May be taken 3 times
daily. Shake well. Store in cool dark place. Keep out of reach of children.
