Thompson's Slippery Elm Malted Food 454 g (Pack of 2)

It is soothing!So don't ask me how this stuff works but I do feel a soothing feeling when eating it, both in terms of mentally and physically it feels soothing to eat I find it hard to explain. It reminds me of porridge but has a very smooth and personally I think nice taste. I do find myself wanting it abit sweeter so I add abit of honey or sugar.But overall the taste is pretty nice. It's really simple to make and you do get quite a few servings out of a pack. Im not really sure if this will help if you have a bad stomach or some sort of medical condition as I do not and can't comment on that. It doesdoes have a soothing feeling and taste though.If your looking for something abit different and something that may soothe your stomach this is worth a go. Would recommend.

I have used this for many years . Excellent for gastric stomach problems

Used to help post nasal drip, bad stomach, as a sleep aid and a way to make sure baby is getting enough food if she's poorly.My personally preferred recipe; 1 Tsp (Heaped) slippery elm, 1 Tsp Honey into enough milk to make a thin paste, then heat up the rest of the milk separately and pour in while stirring.Excessive lumps are either milk being too hot and making porridge, or not mixed in enough and the reason I do them apart.Side effects include anyone over 65 assuming you're drinking medicine. If you can convince them you're not then you must either be "Wrong" or an invalid. These may vary depending on the individual and I found them to not get in the way of my enjoyment of the drink.

High quality used prior to going to bed, settles upset stomach with no after effects. Would give it to children.

OMG! This stuff is a miracle worker. I have suffered from IBS and reflux for over 25 years and I take prescribed medication. Because of the medication I take it gives me daily diahorrea. I have tried lots of alternative medication but to no avail so decided to give it a try. I so wish I had found it 25 years ago, this stuff is amazing. It has brought my bowels back to normal.I haven't tried it on it's own with milk so could not tell you what it tastes like but I do mix it everyday within my smoothie.Couldn't be without this now. One happy bunny :)

I had this food when i was 3 yrs old it helped survive WW2 and now at 85 yrs I am using it again to keep my strengthup plus it helps to calm my stomach ,,,,,,,,,,,Mr a bazely

Perhaps its coincidence but probably not, after weeks of Gastritis and no signs of improvement I tried the rather oddly named ‘Slippery Elm’ and within 2-3 days my stomach was settling, the pains easing and less frequent and it also tastes pretty good too especially when you’re able to mix it with warm milk instead of water. The malted version is marginally sweeter to taste. One of those old remedies which actually appears to work and it helps you sleep too. Worth a try.

I was a little disappointed as the slippery elm content is only 2% or so, the rest wheat based, having said this,it makes a lovely soothing hot drink and is described as a "food" rather than pure slippery elm, so I have to compliment it for what it is described as
