Oh, wow. That's quite an extensive list!

Some of these may not be available, but you should probably be aware of them, just in case.

What is the slippery elm used for?
user
Slippery elm has astringent and anti-bacterial properties. If you have a broken bone you can put some slippery elm on the break, and it will absorb the extra fluids from the injury, and also help it heal.
