More Details

Think of slippery elm as a bowel lozenge, a lozenge coats the sore throat, lubricating it so it’s easier to swallow food and liquids. Slippery Elm does this for your dog’s bowels. Inflammation is reduced, and the not-so-pleasant symptoms of GI upset are eased.

Indigenous herbalists have used Slippery Elm Bark for centuries as a healing ointment to relieve stomach upset due to its astringent and anti-inflammatory properties. Slippery Elm Bark is an herb derived from the inner part of the elm bark and is usually used as a finely ground powder.
Derives from the Slippery Elm tree, a deciduous tree that grows on the eastern coast of the United States.

Sustainably grown and harvested.
