Pete, I was going to ask anyone on these boards if they have tried Slippery Elm. I take slippery elm pills with every meal, and they seem to soothe my stomach. I notice that when I don't take them, I have a harder time after meals. I have IBS-D, and have been taking the slippery elm pills for years. I noticed that was an ingredient in your new supplement. I buy my pills from my local health food store. The brand is Nature's Way, and they are slippey elm pills. I guess slippery elm is simply tree bark and the pills are the tree bark made into dust filled capsules. It is suppose to be soothing to your stomach. I'm glad you found something that helps you. That is always such a wonderful time, any relief is great!!! Kim
