Slippery Elm

Slippery elm, also known as 'slippery elm' or 'slippery elm root', is a plant that originates from Europe and parts of Asia. The plant often grows in moist areas and is characterized by its long, slender leaves and small flowers. In traditional medicine, slippery elm has been used for generations, primarily for its antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties.

In animals, such as dogs, chickens, and horses, slippery elm is often added to the diet or used as a supplement. It can help promote healthy digestion and contribute to overall vitality. In dogs, it may support skin health, while in chickens it can help boost immunity and improve egg production. For horses, slippery elm is sometimes used to support recovery after exertion.

Although slippery elm can offer several benefits, it is important to always consult with a veterinarian before use. This ensures that the ingredient is suitable for the specific animal and that there are no unwanted interactions with other nutrients or medications.
