    I bought Slippery Elm for my mixed terrier 10 years of age. She eats soil in the back yard and then has indigestion which she shows by grazing desperately later on. The S.E. seemed to help with the indigestion, but after two days, she woke us up with dry heaves. It sounded like vomit, but she did not throw up. However, I was not happy with this reaction and had to stop it right away.

    Suffering GORD, taking Nexium from the GP, decided to try Slippery Elm on recommendation from a friend. No longer take Nexium, medical bills have stopped, digesting food, and feeling great. Been taking S.E. for 3 months with no side effects, except constantly improving good health.

    I took the product to combat IBS-D. It seems to have woked very well. No gas pains or cramping. The constant pressure I felt has been absent.

    I bought a bottle of slippery elm throat losenges. It didn't seem to be extremely helpful for our sore throats, but I decided to try it for diarrhea. It works wonderfully! It is a lifesaver since you can't give traditional over-the-counter anti-diarrheal drugs to small children. I give them about 3 losenges when they have diarrhea and it is very effective and works quickly.

    This herb has tremendously helped my IBS. I have Inflamatory Bowel disease as well. This herb has been a blessing. The only problem I found with it is if I take the prescribled dose on the label, I end up with a sinus infection. This herb has been a lifesaver for me.
