Slippery Elm(Ulmus fulva or Ulmas ruba - inner bark of the tree)

From Plant Cures

  
An almost heroic Plant Cure to me! Back as recently as the 50's you could buy this in powder form at any drug store. Most people new it was a sure remedy for heart burn and other digestive problems when a table spoon of it was eaten with some warm water made into a "gruel". (With a little honey it has a very nice nutty taste!)


 A few "00" size capsules of it a day for about two weeks cured my dad of almost constant heart burn caused from an injured esophagus. When eaten in doses of a few table spoons 2-3 times a day it can flat cure Diverticulitis!  However one thing should be considered first and that is the possibility that you have Celiac’s Disease! It turns out that a very large percentage of people with the “Irritable Bowel” disorder have this condition and their doctors don't recognize it. Get The Test.  Note: There is a very simple blood test for it now which can be handled at any blood work lab but you have to tell an MD you want it - most of them don't know there is a test for it.   ( Great if you don't mind going to an MD but most MDs give me the creeps!)
 
While Slippery Elm will work on the symptoms and provide great relief it will not cure Celiacs Disease. This is usually an inherited condition and it would seem the only thing one can do is stay away from foods containing gluten. (Wheat,Rye, Barley, and certain other grains and food) please see info atThe Celiacs Foundation.   (However don't let them tell you there is "no cure" There are no absoloutes! People can adjust and balance out! See Central Qi Pills

Acne Flash!  
Also when Slippery Elm is applied to the face (mixed with water like mud) and left on overnight it can get rid of many acne problems in just a few days.  


Slippery Elm is nutritious and can be tolerated by convalescing people even better then rice when made into a gruel. It has a way of softening the inside of the bowels and making toxins become loose so they can be flushed easily. This is why it is an important part of the Ojibwa Tea or "Essiac" Formula.
