Slippery Elm Bark

Ulmus rubra

Slippery Elm is the inner bark of a native North American tree, traditionally used by Native American nations and early settlers as both food and herbal support. When mixed with water, the bark becomes a smooth, slippery gel that coats and soothes, which is how it earned its name.

Flavor & Aroma: Mild, slightly sweet and nutty with a smooth, silky texture.

Traditionally Used For

• Soothing and coating the throat
• Supporting digestive comfort and a healthy gut lining
• Supporting regularity and healthy digestion
• Providing gentle nourishment, traditionally as a simple gruel

How to Use

• Tea: Steep 1 teaspoon in hot water for 10–15 minutes, stirring often.
• Gruel: Simmer with water or milk, cinnamon and honey for a soothing, porridge-like drink.
• Throat blend: Pair with marshmallow root, licorice and honey.
• Skin care: Mix with water into a paste for a soothing face mask.

Good to Know

Its coating effect may slow the absorption of medications, so take them 1–2 hours before or after. Slippery elm is an at-risk plant, so we source it responsibly.
