MORE ABOUT
SLIPPERY ELM
Almost a century
ago, in a small church in Cambridge, Massachusetts, it was discovered that an
organic substance by the name of Slippery Elm was being used by members of the
church choir to soothe their tired, red, sore throats after long Sunday morning
church services. The people who were using Slippery Elm had much better and
stronger vocal chords by Tuesday night practice than the other choir members.
Word of this natural
remedy spread throughout the church choirs in New England. Over time, the word
got out to opera, rock, country and contemporary singers, as well as the number
one user group, professional voice teachers. Voice teachers prefer Slippery
Elm because it treats the vocal chords' abraded membranes without menthol. Most
cough drops use menthol to dull throat pain. Singers do not like menthol since
it causes the temporary loss of control of their vocal chords.
The Slippery Elm
tree (ulmus fulva) grows in the eastern part of the United States and Canada.
The part of the tree that is used for medicinal purposes is the inner bark.
The inner bark is ground into a powder and then combined with a crystalline
substance to form a throat lozenge.
It
is recognized by the U.S. Pharmacopeia and the F.D.A. as an effective treatment
to soothe inflamed mucous membranes in the mouth and throat.
Once again proving
that nothing is better than nature for treating physical problems.
"Slippery
Elm - the funny sounding herb with serious significance."
