how does this product compare to mastic gum?

This is my experience with the two: I use slippery elm for soothing as it becomes a gel-like substance in your intestines soothing and calming any inflammation & helps when you have too much stomach acid or if one of my family gets diarrhea for example----in fact you don't want to take it with meds or supplements as it can block or diminish your absorption of them----and mastic gum is a healer. I use it in place of antibiotics for healing the causes of stomach upsets like germs and diseased tissue etc. I have found them both to be very helpful.

Are they organic wildcrafted and from usa or european sources (not china)?

Unfortunately, this product is not certified organic and the country of origin is not provided in our product listing.

a reviewer claims this contains yellow #5, but i dont see it listed, so how do you know for sure? now im checking all my supplement labels & worrying!

Hello! While reviewing the Slippery Elm by NOW Foods on their and our own website, we found that there is no indication that the product contains yellow #5. This product ingredient is Slippery Elm bark with the other ingredients listed as: gelatin (capsule), Cellulose and Magnesium Stearate (vegetable source). Rest assured that in the case that the item contained any other type of ingredients they certainly would be listed on the label. We hope this puts your mind at ease!
