There is no scientific studies to show that Slippery Elm has any beneficial effects on Ulcerative Colitis. This is not a disorder to "muck about with" so I would suggest that you follow medical advice.

seconded sqad... any tinkering with diet should be done with the support and advice from her hospital dietitian. They will be her best friends through this if she uses their help
