Most of us have experienced this unpleasant symptom at some stage in our lives, so you’ll be glad to know that Slippery Elm tablets is a great product for this. This herb can give great relief for people who suffer from heart burn and indigestion or dyspepsia. The tablet contains 500mg Ulmus rubra powder – a fantastic herb which can protect and calm the mucous membranes, especially in the digestive system.

Flavonoids in slippery elm also have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to relieve inflammation in ulcers. Because of this valuable mucous membrane protective property it can also be of great use when you suffer from diarrhea – it forms a “protective layer” to prevent dehydration.

If one suffers from recurring or chronic heart burn, it is also adviseble to make dietary changes such as avoiding spicy foods and alcohol, but we can look at this in a next post.
