Organic Traditions Slippery Elm Bark Powder, 200g
|
Slippery Elm is the inner bark of a deciduous tree native to eastern parts of North America. It has been used as an herbal remedy in North America for centuries and was commonly used in the Native America tradition to support digestive health. Since the bark is highly mucilaginous it provides an extremely soothing coating for irritated mucous membranes. A complex mixture of polysaccharides forms a soothing gelatinous fiber when it is added to water.
According to the energetic principles of Ayurveda, Slippery Elm is sweet in the Rasa taste energy and cooling in action according to Virya. Slippery Elm decreases excess Vata and Pitta, while increasing Kapha constitutional doshic energies. It is considered a wonderful daily herb to support general well-being, vitality and health.
Slippery Elm is a slightly sweet tasting herb. Take 1 teaspoon of Organic Traditions Slippery Elm Bark Powder as a tonic once or twice daily. Add Organic Traditions Slippery Elm powder to water, coconut water, your favorite juice or to smoothies.
Add 1 teaspoon of Organic Traditions Slippery Elm powder to your favorite smoothie recipe to create a nourishing, antioxidant rich smoothie.
Take 1 teaspoon twice daily in warm water as a supportive, nutritive tonic. Make a tea-like infusion by adding 1 teaspoon of Slippery Elm powder to 6-8 oz. of hot water. Let the water sit for 10 minutes to allow the compounds to be released.
Add some honey or 1 teaspoon of Organic Traditions Yacon Gold™ Syrup or Organic Traditions Coconut Palm Sugar in order to add a touch of sweetness.
Cinnamon, ginger and cloves are also a nice addition to Slippery Elm tea. Create a throat-soothing or a digestive-soothing tea by boiling 1-2 teaspoons of Organic Traditions flax seeds per 1 cup of water and add 1 teaspoon of Organic Traditions Slippery Elm powder.
Use Slippery Elm powder to thicken cereal, puddings or raw superfood desserts.
