Slippery Elm Latte
I love slippery elm for its effect on my throat. It is incredibly soothing and adds resonance to my voice. I like to drink it before I do any filming. As a yogi I find it to be a fantastic fifth chakra drink!
Slippery elm is gathered from the inner bark of Indian Elm tree in North America during the spring for medicinal use. Slippery elm is known for its soothing effect on whatever part of your body it comes into contact with. You can use it for sore throats, indigestion, inflammation of the respiratory and reproductive system, it will loosen congestion in the lungs. Slippery elm is used for irritable bowel syndrome, crohn's and colitis by soothing the mucous membranes lining the stomach and intestines.
Slippery Elm should not be taken if you are pregnant.
Slippery Elm inhibits the absorption of iron, so if you are iron deficient, separate out your slippery elm from your iron supplements by 2 hours.

I used to buy something called Meloids but can't find it anymore, this was for sore throats and singers used them too.
It looks lovely. i shall difinately make this. Thank you
Hope you enjoy
Thanks a Latte! I wish you had a close up of you pouring it into your mug so I could see the consistency. I can’t wait to try this for my IBS flair ups. Bless you!!🙏
Great idea!
This was great, thank you so much. Can you make a video for something to help with stomach viruses? My son has already had two since he started school in August and I really don't like giving him medications that will prevent his body from building up its own immunities.
Thank you
You're welcome
How many weeks are suggested to use slippery elm for healing? Latte looks very good I will try it.
Very nice presentation and I like using different ingredients on your “use this or that” alternatives. Thank you so much as acid reflux has been visiting me.
I hope it helps. Slippery Elm is such a beautiful herb.
Looks yummy !
it was :)
Wow! 😋❤☕
glad you enjoyed it :)
Hi , is it safe to boil slippery elm in water?
And can i add boiling water to slippery elm powder
Does heat damages the slippery elm?
Please answer, thanks
You are so lovely to watch and listen to...
Thank you Bob, very kind. :)
I would happily make a video for something to help with stomach viruses. :) Thank you for asking. I am just about to make a whole bunch of new videos for Thirsty Thursday starting next week, so I will put your request in for that. :) Cheers, Melissa
nice video
Thank you Lana
Are psyllium husks similar to slippery elm and can you
make latte with it too please. ..?
Ok.. you said in the beginning not to take the slippery elm with iron but you added molasses that has iron. I’m confused… did I misunderstand something?
Molasses! Oh yes!! My slippery elm tea comes today, too.
You said the slippery elm inhibits iron absorption, but then mention the molasses would help with the iron b/c it has iron in it. Wouldn't the slippery elm inhibit the absorption of the iron in the molasses?
Did I misunderstand something, or not hear it correctly?
I use honey, also I also take the slippery elm 2 hours before meals, this way your body will absorb the nutrient's.
My Slippery Elm powder does not form a thick gel.
I do have some slimy substance from it at the bottom of my cup, but it doesn't gelify like say flax seeds or chia seeds do.
What could be the reason?
Thanks.
+Kris Mat interesting, I'm not sure why?

Hi i have a question my son is 7 years old and i can give him this suplement
I would run that question by your medical doctor to ensure that it's safe for him :)
What is the best way to take slippery elm for gastritis? Easy quick and effective?
you might ask your medical doctor :)
Docs will tell you to take something that is natural n cheap?! I need to find that Lone Wolf
It comes in capsules.. much easier,. I recommend Nature's Way 100 Vegan tabs.. non addictive , for my stubborn constipation l w use it 4ever
@@VapeGirlCapsules work just as well ... Helped me w no side effects . Good luck
Can you use goat milk instead of cow dairy or nut milk? Is sweetener necessary or can we skip it?
for sure :)
Pls advise which brand i can buy.. I will really help me. Thanks
Check description or a trusted local distributor
I get my slippery elm from thespiritofhealth.com
Excellent Video. I can’t wait to purchase the Slippery Elm Powder.
What brand of slippery elm powder do u suggest I buy???
sorry I don't remember and I'm out :(
Can I take it if I'm taking vitamin D supplements?
do ask your medical professional :)
So the heat doesn't destroy the goodness of the slippery elm, right?
No, it doesn't! I used it for Acid Reflux which was getting pretty bad, about 5 years ago and it totally healed it!! Doctor was recommending me to have an Endoscopy & Colonoscopy for it but, praise God, Slippery Elm did the job and I didn't have to endure those procedures!!
Does slippery dissolve out of body or does it serve as protection for internal digestive purpose.
Irene K it temporarily coats the digestive tract and gives it a chance to heal
How? Mine always goes so thick that there’s no liquid left &!it happens in less than 30 seconds
more water?
Is there a reason why mine didn't gel?
You may want to order from a different supplier. True slippery elm should clump and gel a bit. Not a huge Thick gel but it doesn't dissolve completely
Does one have to use milk can one use it just with plain water no sweetener just water..
try it and let me know :)
Many people's colitis has dairy intolerance. How they can drink this milk added thing? This can lead more problem to their gut and symptoms.
indeed...almond milk ?
She says “non dairy milk”
Does slippery elm help with diverticulosis?
sorry you'll need to ask your doctor
@@YogaLifestylewithMelissa you read it out it does
@@YogaLifestylewithMelissaslippery elm is not something doctors would know anything about.
Is molasses ok for type 2 diabetics ?
You should speak with your Doctor to make sure Ursula :)
Molasses is a raw sugar , so , no !
Are you people sure this woman is a Doctor, she doesn't seem to answer simple questions, if Molasses is good for diabetes
@@anonymousanonymous870 She doesn't seem to know much or be helpful.
@@EllieLove21 she's been careful as she's not a Dr
We have those trees in Canada and USA
@diesel6594 so pleased you enjoyed the video :)
