Slippery Elm Bark: The Unknown Emergency Herb: . Latin name-genus is Ulmus fulva. Use the inner bark.
Therapeutic Benefits: Slippery Elm bark is one of the most versatile herbs you can have. Every home should have some of this amazing plant.
Slippery Elm inner bark powder can be used to reduce inflammation, smooth irritated mucous membranes and absorb poisons in the intestinal tract. It is a great friend to the stomach, small intestine and colon. A blessing for ulcers, especially if used with the digestive herbs.
I returned from one of my trips to India in the early 1980's with severe dysentery. I was having up to 30 watery bowel evacuations a day. I used every herb to help, the power herbs, Garlic, Echinacea, Goldenseal, Liver Herbs, Colon Herbs, Digestive Herbs. I even used Charcoal and Bentonite Clay, and still was pooping 30 times a day.
One day, in complete exhaustion and dehydration, I made myself a cup of Slippery Elm Tea. That was it, my dysentery stopped immediately. What is my point? Never underestimate the power of this herb.
Emergency Internal Dosage for Powder:
Strong: Pour 8 ounces of boiling water over 2, 3, 4 or more tablespoons of the powdered bark. It will make a glop, a slimy brown substance that may not seem very appealing, but once you get it down, you will have a smile on your face.
Medium: Pour 8 ounces of boiling water over 1 tablespoon of powdered bark.
Mild: Pour 8 ounces of boiling water over 1 teaspoon of powdered bark.
Inability to keep anything down: When a person can't keep anything down, they often tolerate a teaspoon of slippery elm gruel at a time. Mix slippery elm into water, stirring to eliminate lumps and mix into a soft, jelly-like mixture. This can nourish someone too sick to eat.

Folk Remedies
Apple cider vinegar Try 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water with each meal and at mid-morning, mid-afternoon, and at bedtime. Another variation is to give children 2 teaspoons every two hours. This remedy can be used for children as young as three years of age. The vinegar acts as a natural antiseptic and helps cleanse the intestines and entire digestive tract. It also contains pectin which will add bulk to the stools. The pectin also is effective against certain types of bacteria that cause diarrhea.
Bee pollen Take bee pollen several times a day. It contains nearly all the minerals and trace elements needed in the diet.
Carrots Boil carrots, then puree. Take 1 teaspoon every 15 minutes.
Carrot juice The essential oils in carrot juice have an effect on the mucous membranes in the stomach. Take juice several times daily to help regain proper digestion. The juice is good for children, too, and should stop diarrhea attacks quickly.
Carrot soup with carob This has been used effectively in children suffering from diarrhea caused by E. Coli bacteria.
Carob flour/powder Carob flour is very rich in pectin, a binding substance, and tannins, which have an anti-viral effect, and is very helpful in normalizing bowels. Carob flour/powder is very beneficial for babies' diarrhea. Mix with formula or food.
Charcoal Take activated charcoal or white clay to absorb toxins in the system. Actually, activated charcoal is a powerful adsorbent, which is a substance that attracts things to its surface, as opposed to absorbing them into itself. Charcoal will stop the diarrhea quickly by adsorbing the toxins that are causing the problem.
A study made in 1981 shows that activated charcoal cuts down on the amount of gas produced by beans and other gas-producing foods. It adsorbs the excess gas as well as the bacteria that form the gas (57). Activated charcoal helps to eliminate bad breath, because it cleanses both the mouth and the digestive tract (3
. It is also helpful in relieving symptoms of nervous diarrhea, traveler's diarrhea (Turista), spastic colon, indigestion, and peptic ulcers. For such problems take between 1 teaspoon and 1_ tablespoons of powdered charcoal up to 3 times a day. Take it between meals, as food can reduce its effectiveness. Swirl the charcoal in a glass of water and drink it down or mix it with olive oil for easy ingestion by use of a spoon (38, 47, 57, 5
.
Garlic is effective in three ways: it soothes, cleanses and reduces inflammation. Dice some garlic and take with juice, milk, soup or honey two or three times a day. Garlic is also very rich in potassium which is essential for proper contractions of muscles, including the intestines. The potassium is also important in the body's electrolyte system and is lost during bouts of diarrhea.

Garlic is also a powerful anti-fungal and literally destroys any antigen, pathogen and any harmful or disease causing micro-organism that can hurt you.
Garlic contains at least 200 different compounds, many of which are said to be useful for dogs. Garlic lowers blood pressure, accelerates the breakdown of waste matter from cells, and may even act as a mild flea repellent.
Horseradish is a potent herb for the sinus and lungs. It opens up the sinus passages and increases the circulation there, where, most doctors agree, the common cold and influenza often starts.
Cayenne and Ginger are like a blast to your body's circulation. This powerful tag team will unblock anything, anywhere! So just imagine, you have the two strongest herbs to kill EVERY germ known and the three most powerful herbs to blast them around your entire body.
