  • Hi Glen Great video - very informative !

    I was wondering if you could recommend any other herbs / supplements that are good for repairing the colon and over all gut health. Ive watched your other video about mixing psyllium husks with slippery elm. Im curious if you could recommend anything else as magical as Slippery Elm ??

    Also, does it decrease nutrient absorption ?

    Thanks so much !

  • @SterlingBorden: I actually just finished a five-day juice fast|colon cleanse using Blessed Herbs' product. It was difficult but it did work quite well. I would recommend that to you. Slippery Elm is more of an accompanying herb versus a standalone herb for colon cleansing. Slippery elm doesn't interfere with nutrient absorption. It's perfectly safe.

  • does it act a little like a laxative then?

  • @xxlLsSharon: No, it doesn't. If it were combined with psyllium husks (or seeds), then it would appear that it would but it would be the psyllium husks and not the slippery elm.

  • thanks for posting this, I am only 36 but have IBS and diverticulitosis I was given alot of antibiotic as a child now my colon is messed up I have heard this works. I looking forward to try it. 

  • @353bp3z3: It's very soothing to the stomach and entire intestinal tract. Let me know how it goes.

see all

  • @mode101wpb: Thanks for the post. Slippery elm is really safe. It's a food albeit a powerful food. That said, "moderation in all things" is always a wise precaution. I've personally had awesome results for stomach problems with just four to six capsules. Don't worry about taking a bunch. I used to pop the capsules literally about two to three times a day taking four to six at a time. Never had even the slightest problem. Hope this helps. If you need more clarification, email me.

  • I started taking the capsules, same ones you have listed, over a month ago for gastritis symptoms and it has worked well. Could not find any local sources for the bulk loose powder though, though it's available online. I did try it by removing the powder from the capsules and mixing in some warm water, swallowed it that way and don't really mind the taste which comes very close to oatmeal'ish.

    It seems there is little info on how long to take it and dosage, I'm just going by the bottle.

  • @MTHKITEBOARDS: Thanks for the post. See, I told ya! :)

    You must have the chewable form of slippery elm. I've never tried that. Trust me, the capsulized version is potent and superb too. It's probably the best way to take it internally.

  • This shit is good for stomach problems, just took 4 pills and chewed them with water.

    If you just swallow the pill I don't think it works as fast.

    It stops all my gas within 30 min and it feels like there is no problem whatsoever.
