Slippery Elm is the perfect addition to your winter arsenal of herbs for respiratory and digestive comfort and radiant health.

This type of elm tree grows best in the moist, sunlit uplands of North America. Its red inner bark contains a sticky mixture of sugars, called mucilage, that becomes a slick gel when coming in contact with water. This thick substance can help coat and soothe a dry throat, help support a healthy respiratory system, and can be soothing to the lining of your stomach and GI tract.
