Slippery elm has been a well-known herbal remedy for hundreds of years, particularly in relation to disorders of the stomach. For people suffering from Crohn’s disease, inflammation, bleeding and general stomach upset are common symptoms, and slippery elm can counter many of them. Slippery elm is known to stop bleeding in the gut, which can prevent anemia that so often accompanies this disease. Furthermore, slippery elm can strengthen the bacterial balance in the gut and promote better digestion, making it easier to handle meals normally without any subsequent pain or discomfort.
