Provides soothing support for gastric and colonic health.
When digested, Slippery Elm takes on a gel-like consistency which coats the digestive tract and gives a soothing action, ideal support for horses with gastric or colonic issues. Slippery Elm is beneficial in supporting normal urinary function, and can be used externally as a poultice to draw out toxins.
Slippery Elm bark is rich in mucilage, which becomes a gel when it comes in contact with liquids. This helps to coat and line the gastrointestinal tract. It also helps to promote a healthy balance of bacteria within the hindgut. Slippery Elm is useful for those with urinary issues, and can be used externally as a poultice.
