Vitacost Slippery Elm Bark Description
Natural tree-bark extract used traditionally for soothing minor irritations.
What is slippery elm bark?
Slippery elm bark is the dried, powdered inner bark of the Slippery Elm (Ulmus rubra), a medium-sized tree with downward-growing branches and dense, reddish-orange flower clusters, native to North America. When mixed with water, the bark forms a slick, gel-like substance called mucilage. Native Americans applied it topically to wounds and skin irritations. It was also consumed as a tea for respiratory, immune and digestive-health purposes.
