Properties Native Americans used red elm for a variety of medicinal purposes. It was supposed to help with colds, burns and as a laxative Used as an adjunct in the treatment of the gastrointestinal mucosa and upper respiratory tract. The flavonoids and salicylic acid contained in the bark soothe existing irritations and cavities and promote their healing. On the other hand, the mucus contained in the cortex form a protective layer on the mucosa, preventing its damage (oral cavity, throat, esophagus, stomach, intestines).
