Slippery Elm for Laryngitis

For many centuries, Native Americans have used Slippery Elm to relieve coughs and soothe sore throats. This amazing natural cure is produced from the inner bark of the Slippery Elm tree.

Slippery Elm is also useful for digestive and stomach issues as well as being extremely nourishing.
