NOW Foods Supplements, Slippery Elm Powder (Ulmus rubra), Non-GMO Project Verified, Herbal Supplement, 4-Ounce

This is the real thing and not some extract. I've been using NOW products for years and I recently tried a different brand of the slippery elm and it wasn't even slippery elm but I got this one and it is the real deal. Works so well for my gut issues and has an ok taste and is easy to mix and even the color is the right color. I found out about slippery elm from Dr. Barbara O'Neill and it works wonders. There's no smell at all. It helps my stomach and even throat.

This is a powder form and the taste is nutty and perfect for tea it has a fall kinda vibe :) Lets talk about what it does... it's called SLIPPERY elm for a reason it makes you more slippery in all the right places. *Not for women who are pregnant or trying to get pregnant as it can cause miscarriage. This WORKS and pretty fast with in 24 hours for me. I only use it as needed and I don't think it's to be used continuously, so do your research. I mix it with a hand held frother. It is kinda clumpy a fork works too. This is also great for joint pain ... any lube in the body :)

My go to when in need! Always good!

It has taken a few days to begin feeling better. The entire gastric tract was irritated.

Perfect for anyone to use. I mix 1 teaspoon in hot water with a squeeze of lemon and honey. Soothe your throat. I also use this for toothaches. Definitely worth to keep on your shelves and safe.

My cat with IBD suffers typical symptoms including nausea and upset stomach. I read and now wholeheartedly believe that slippery elm works like Pepto-Bismol (which is toxic to cats), coating the tummy and providing swift relief to cats and I'd imagine all pets. It does a myriad of other medicinally beneficial things for cats that I encourage everybody to do a quick online search. I promise you'll be amazed! This is a an absolute MUST item in my kitty medicine arsenal. NOW brand is an inexpensive yet 100% trustworthy source of quality SEP - - which is critical, as I've actually tried a couple other brands in capsule form that appeared legit but once prepared smelled noxious/burned, thus obviously NOT pure & full of God knows what random fillers.**I mix ONE heaping TBSP in 1/2cup cold water in a glass sauce pan, bring to boil then immediately reduce to simmer for 3-5mins. Stir/whisk constantly (I use a fork). Finished product will be think, gelatinous (PERFECT to soothe tummy), some call it "gruel". I fill a 5 cc syringe & administer orally then store remaining gruel in fridge for up to 1 week.FYI - You can't really mess up proportionately so don't sweat it!Above pep method is preferred but in a pinch, you can forgo boiling & simply mix & serve. For single dose, I eyeball appx 1/2 TSP powder to maybe 1 TBSP water. Good luck!

I purchased this same product last year and it seems as if the consistency has changed. Last time when mixing it with water it would form a thicker, paste-like consistency. This bottle I purchased last month does not thicken. It is more like a gritty tea, which defeats the purpose of drinking this to help coat the stomach/esophagus lining. It seems like they changed something with this product. I will not be purchasing this again. I have purchased several supplements from the NOW brand and have been pleased. Now I am very leery about buying this brand again.

My dog had been vomiting on and off and/or not wanting his food(chicken, rice, vegetables mixed with wet dogfood).When he didn’t get better with bland homemade food, I was about to try pepto bismol on him. Then I came across slippery elm while reading a website from a wholistic vet. Slippery elm was an ingredient in their healthy tummy mix.So began the research! He has been on it for a month now (I mix two tsp powder into two cups hot water, mix well with whisk. Then refrigerate and I have enough for 5-6 days. I started three meals a day instead of two. I give all homemade chicken, rice and Vegs. Morning and evening I add two tbsp slippery elm liquid to his food. Dog is 13 yrs. and he’s 30 lbs. Mid afternoon at 3 p.m. I give the dog his meal with his vitamin, probiotic, and pumpkin powder but no slippery elm because supposedly it won’t let his body absorb the vitamins etc. It may seem too much for some of you, but for my dog to feel great, stay regular and be happy and not hurting makes it worth it for me. He is a changed dog! After two years of belly issues off and on, now I’ve found Slippery Elm! So happy.
