Solaray Slippery Elm delivers 400 mg of slippery elm bark (Ulmus rubra, inner bark) in each vegetarian capsule. Slippery elm bark is naturally rich in mucilage, a soluble fiber that forms a gel-like substance in contact with water, offering a gentle coating effect for the throat and digestive tract lining.
When life gets complicated or the weather changes, maintaining that vibrant, healthy glow can be a challenge. Stay one step ahead! Slippery Elm is the perfect addition to your winter arsenal of herbs for respiratory and digestive comfort and radiant health.
This type of elm tree grows best in the moist, sunlit uplands of North America. Its red inner bark contains a sticky mixture of sugars, called mucilage, that becomes a slick gel when coming in contact with water. This thick substance can help coat and soothe a dry throat, help support a healthy respiratory system, and can be soothing to the lining of your stomach and GI tract.
Non-GMO and vegan, our Slippery Elm provides 400mg of the whole bark per serving and is manufactured with the excellence and care you've come to expect from Solaray. And like all our products, it's lab verified, so the purity and quality shine through!
This formula is designed for daily use as a supportive botanical product.

Clinical Research Highlights
-
Slippery elm has a long history of use in herbal traditions for supporting comfort and soothing mucous membranes.
-
Clinical research in humans is limited; evidence largely comes from traditional/herbal literature or small observational use.
-
Preclinical or in vitro work suggests that mucilage and associated polysaccharides may help maintain mucosal integrity under mild stress, though results are not definitive.
-
Because of limited rigorous clinical trials, avoid making disease claims; present it as general botanical support for mucosal comfort or soothing.
