Slippery Elm is a soothing and nourishing herb that helps absorb acid and irritants in the stomach. Slippery Elm has been used as an herbal remedy in North America for centuries. Native Americans used slippery elm in healing salves for wounds, boils, ulcers, burns, and skin inflammation. It was also taken orally to relieve coughs, sore throats, diarrhea, and stomach problems.

Slippery Elm is often used in magic for the purposes of protecting oneself from gossip, slander, libel, or lies told by jealous persons. It may also be useful in aiding children learning to speak, helping them become persuasive speakers later in life. Slippery Elm is also used as an ingredient in invisibility spells, likely a use derived from it's protective qualities. Carry this herb with you when attending long ceremonies, or events where you may be speaking for prolonged periods of time.
