Slippery Elm Bark Benefits and Side Effects
A native to eastern North America, Elm trees may be found from Canada to Georgia, from Texas to Minnesota, but especially in the Appalachian Mountain region. The slippery elm is less affected by the Dutch elm disease that wiped out so may trees in the last few decades. It is also called Indian elm, red elm (because of the wood color), moose elm, and sweet elm.
Slippery Elm is different from the American Elm in that it has hairy buds and very short-stalked flowers. The Slippery Elm grows to a height of 30 to 60 feet and the leaves are about 6 inches long. They grow alternately on the branch, and have a coarsely double-serrated edge and a rough texture. The flowers grow in clusters of ten to twenty, appearing before the leaves in early spring. The fruit contains a single central seed and is half an inch long.
Poachers destroy thousands of slippery elms by stripping the bark in mid June to early July when it is especially easy to peel. Then they sell it for its medicinal value, getting their cut in the $23 billion dollar herb industry in the United States.
Some believe slippery elm has abortafaciant capabilities. When the bark is moistened and inserted into a pregnant woman's uterus, she may abort her baby. This practice resulted in so called "Elm Stick Laws" in many states limiting the size of the bark sold. Because slippery elm bark may have this effect, women who are pregnant or lactating should avoid using slippery elm. This is the only caution known in taking the herb.
Elm was used by colonists to make pudding, to thicken jelly, to preserve grease, and as a survival food on long trips. It was used medicinally to treat toothaches, skin injuries, gout, arthritis, stomachaches, coughs, and intestinal worms.
The inner bark was also used to waterproof canoes, baskets, and dwellings. It can be made into a gruel. In times of famine, early American settlers used it as a survival food; George Washington and his troops survived for several days on slippery elm gruel during their bitter winter at Valley Forge.
The inner bark is a durable, strong fiber, which can be spun into thread, or made into twine or rope. This quality makes Slippery elm bark useful for bowstrings, jewelry, ropes, snowshoe bindings, clothing, woven mats, and in some musical instruments. The wood was used for the hubs of wagon wheels because of the wood's interlocking grain. This made it a natural shock absorber. When the wood is cured, it is excellent for making matchless fires with the bow drill method. This is because the wood grinds into a very fine, flammable powder under friction.
As an internal medication, slippery elm bark is a bulk herb that can be used to relieve ulcers and other gastrointestinal conditions and respiratory irritations. The bark has healing properties ideal for treating sore throats or suppressing coughing. External uses include treatment of hemorrhoids, skin conditions, and vaginitis. It has been proven effecting in giving smoother, softer skin.
The recommended dosage for a 150 pound adult is three 500 mg capsules daily. To make a poultice, add coarse powdered bark to boiling water until the desired consistency is reached. Then, when cool, apply it where needed. The proportion for making slippery elm tea is one part powder to eight parts water. One can also sprinkle the powder on oatmeal or in juice. Children's dosage should be determined proportional to their weight.
So, buy bulk herbs and experience their health boosting properties.
will a body with a shock absorber be good and suitable for racing bicycles?
I'm assembling and building my bike piece by piece.
i wanna make my bike fast but light when i ride around the city.
some kinda speed type.
I'm planning to install some thin tires on it.
but i don't know if a bike body with a Shock absorber will affect the speed and control of the bike compared to the bike body with a rigid (no suspension) type...
please explain to me what type of body i should buy to suit the city condition.
thanks
Bikes don't have bodies, they have frames. If you are talking about a racing bike for street use, then suspension will not be needed or desirable, if you are trying to keep weight down. This project is going to end up costing you 2-3 times as much as a complete bike, so perhaps you might be better off trying to find a bike that is right for you.
