Diarrhea, Colitis
"This is the most widely-used herb for relieving diarrhea and for soothing and healing inflammations and irritations in the lungs and intestinal tract. The mucilage in Slippery Elm is very strengthening and healing, making it one of the most valuable herbal remedies for asthma, bronchitis and intestinal complaints, -- such as colitis and ulcers. Like Lobelia, it also removes mucus from the respiratory tract.
Slippery Elm's properties help assist the activity of the adrenal glands. It helps to boost the output of the cortin hormone, which helps send a stream of blood-building substances through the system. It is used as a food whenever there is difficulty holding and digesting food."
(Today's Herbal Health.) Dr. Watkins states that it has been known to sustain even a cancerous stomach.
Case history from How to Herb Book: "G. had internal hemorrhoids that were sore an d bleeding. She mixed a small retention enema of Slippery Elm. The bleeding and pain stopped within minutes." She also recommends it for diarrhea in babies.
