 I think every herbalist has a favorite herb, one they just have an affinity for. For me it’s the 2 herbs I prescribe more than any other and for good reason. So what are they? Slippery elm (Ulmus fulva) – this a mucilaginous and demulcent herb (in plain English it lines and soothes the digestive tract). I have heard it called an internal bandage. It is best used as a powder, capsule or poultice. The herbs is taken from the inner bark. Mainly found in North America. Conditions used for – GERD, IBS, IBD, Burns, stress, inflammation, pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea and more This herb is also wonderfully nutritious and is a prebiotic. Marshmallow (althea officinalis) – not the sweets, although the sweets were originally derived from the plant. This herb is also very demulcent, anti-diarrhoeal, emollient and more. This herb is so gentle yet so strong. It’s main action is to soothe irritation and inflammation of the mucous membranes. It a lovely herb to soothe digestive problems but also helps to soothe respiratory and urinary issues to by soothing the linings. It is thought to counter excess acid whilst also helping to thicken the lining of the stomach to stop acid related issues. The herb is taken form the leaf and root mainly, found in Central and southern Europe, including Britain, to North Africa and Western Asia. Conditions used for – coughs, digestive discomfort, GERD, constipation, ulcers, skin irritations and more Gut/digestive issues are normally present in my clients when they come in, whether it’s acid reflux, heartburn, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, poor digestion, bloating, wind, GERD, IBS, IBD. Gut issues can often be the root cause of a large number of common health issues, so you can understand why these two beauties are the top of my list. This is general advice, if you have a medical condition please check with a professional before commencing any new treatments or lifestyle plans.
