Natural Health 4 Life 100% Pure Inner Bark Slippery Elm Powder – Supports Gut Health, Gluten Free, Vegan – Natural Flavour – Suitable for All Ages – 100g Slippery Elm Powder Tub with Scoop

Life saver

Has made an incredible difference in just 3 days of using the product for my husband's GERD. Night time acid reflux literally disappeared for him. He uses a sealed refillable coffee cup as a shaker. Almond milk is then added and then the powder before a really good shake and drinking it immediately, on an empty stomach before bedtime. Great environmentally safe packaging too.

Seemed to sort the problem quickly

This has helped soooo much. I had extremely bad reflux and antacids from the chemist just weren't touching it. I give my dog tree barks (which includes slippery elm) at times, so wondered whether slippery elm could help me. This worked immediately and has given be the first comfortable few weeks I've had in a long time. Taking this won't mean can stop taking care with what and when I eat, but now that actually makes a difference. I saw a review describes the powder as dark: This is not what mine looks like - It is as it appears in the picture. I have not found it overly grainy and responds as I would expect the inner bark to when mixed with water. There is a negative comment about the taste. I actually like the smell and taste, and ok it doesn't look massively attractive. If you are particularly adverse to this sort of herbal taste it can be mixed with something that has a flavour you like. Only one dosing protocol is described on the jar (morning / evening - empty stomach), but apparently some people benefit from taking it differently (e.g. a little while after eating). It isn't any good for bacterial infections/overgrowth. It can be soothing for sore throats. Slippery elm can be mixed to make a face pack and wound treatment too. Unfortunately it can't be used to help pregnancy related digestive issues, such as reflux. Don't take at the same time as medications.

I've had experience with other brands, and this product actually reacts with water like slippery elm should do. It has helped me a lot.

Stars for product being exactly as described and mixes as described. Arrived perfectly and is what it is. Taste disgusting but don’t care if works. Mixes as they say if you stir with fork and use small amount of water to mix. However, from my point it does NOT ease oesophagitis not even slightly. It does not smooth its way down or coat the oesophagus on its way down. I’m half way through tub and I will finish because I am desperate. My review no reflection on the product but its healing qualities. This is not an expensive item.

seems to help. Mixed with milk and frothed up not unpleasant before bed!

Order 1 (100g Box): Excellent. Pale, light-tan colour, mixed perfectly. Noticeably helped with gut issues. Order 2 (500g Pouch): Awful. Dark brown colour, wouldn't mix at all. Refused to try. Refunded by Amazon. Order 3 (100g Box): Poor. Dark brown colour, mixed poorly with visible lumps. Continued use for a few days until a substitute arrived. Not anywhere near as effective for gut issues. Refund pursued. Order 4 (250g Box): Poor. Same as order 3. Refund pursued. Inner Bark is a pale, light-tan colour, whereas Outer Bark is a dark brown colour. Inner Bark is the "good stuff". This tells us that the products I, and many others received, were not "100% Pure Inner Bark" as advertised.
