Ulmus rubra
Slippery elm is sweet herb with a mild, slightly earthen flavor. It is highly mucilaginous and has a particular affinity for the digestive system. It is the perfect choice for coating and soothing inflamed and irritated mucous membranes, and making it invaluable for sore throats, ulcers, and any inflammatory condition of the gut. Slippery elm’s alkaline salt content makes it helpful in neutralizing excess acidity in the digestive system. A tonic food-medicine containing nutritious sugars, minerals, and some fiber, it is generally considered a highly safe herb. Some even eat it like porridge, especially during convalescence.

"If you want to change your life and overall well-being take the first step and visit the Herb Shoppe. They are so knowledgeable in herbs, flower essences, and everything vital to life. I am so very grateful for this store."
"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."
"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
