Slippery Elm Bark Powder is made from the finely ground inner bark of the Ulmus rubra tree, native to North America. Naturally rich in mucilage, it forms a smooth, gel-like consistency when mixed with water.
Slippery elm has been used traditionally in Western herbal practice for centuries and remains a popular natural ingredient. It is commonly enjoyed as a warm drink or added to smoothies and recipes.
Uses
Mix into warm or cold water to make a smooth beverage.
Blend into smoothies and shakes.
Stir through porridge or yoghurt.
Use as a natural thickener in soups, sauces, and stews.
Add to baking recipes such as breads, muffins, and slices.
Directions
Adults: Mix 1–2 teaspoons into a glass of water or juice and stir well. Consume up to three times daily. Slippery Elm Bark Powder can also be added to smoothies or other recipes.
Tip: Drink plenty of water throughout the day when consuming slippery elm bark powder.
