The Pale Pink-Brown Powder of the Red Elm tree's inner bark, originating from North America, has a history of use among indigenous peoples. Now, it serves both herbal and orthodox medicine. This Slippery Elm bark powder has a unique mucilaginous texture, which is slimy and slippery, and is applied to various conditions involving irritated or inflamed mucous membranes. These conditions can occur in the respiratory or urinary systems, as well as the entire gastrointestinal tract including the throat and esophagus. In horses, Slippery Elm bark powder is primarily used internally for issues like diarrhea and gastric ulceration. Additionally, it is used as aftercare for some types of colic. The powder helps to soothe and coat damaged or inflamed tissues, promoting healing and potentially preventing scarring. It also has the ability to draw out toxins and irritants. Slippery Elm bark powder can be mixed with moist chaff or grain feed, or combined with yoghurt, honey, or mashed banana.
