Slippery elm (Ulmus fulva) has been used as an herbal remedy in North America for centuries. Native Americans used slippery elm in healing salves for wounds, boils, ulcers, burns, and skin inflammation. It was even taken orally to relieve coughs, sore throats, diarrhea, and stomach problems.
Slippery elm contains mucilage, a substance that becomes a slick gel when combined with water. It coats and relieves the mouth, throat, stomach, and intestines. It also has antioxidants that help reduce inflammatory bowel disorders. Slippery elm causes reflux stimulation of nerve endings in the gastrointestinal tract leading to raised mucus secretion. The increased mucus production may shield the gastrointestinal tract against ulcers and excess acidity.
It is often suggested for the following disorders:
- Sore throat
- Cough
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
- Diarrhea
- Wounds, burns, boils, psoriasis, and other skin conditions (external)
