Slippery Elm Bark is known for its high mucilage content, which forms a gel-like fiber when combined with water. This special mixture helps to soothe gastric issues and provides numerous digestion benefits. It has been shown to reduce bowel transit time, absorb toxins, increase fecal bulk, and improve the presence of beneficial bacteria. Furthermore, its anti-inflammatory properties have been noted. Plus, the mucilage's resistance to stomach acids and enzymes ensures a long-lasting soothing effect throughout the entire digestive tract.
