Here's a recipe:
Slippery Elm syrup

Put 1/2 cup of cool purified water into a glass or stainless steel saucepan. Add one slightly rounded teaspoon of slippery elm powder (or you can open and empty the contents of 5 capsules into the pan). Whisk with a fork until the powder blends with the water. Note: Always blend it in the cold water first. If you add the powder to warm or hot water it will be lumpy.

Bring the ingredients to a simmer over a low flame, stir constantly. Simmer about two minutes or until it slightly thickens to a syrupy consistency.

Cool the mixture then refrigerate in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid. With proper storage the syrup will remain fresh for 7 or 8 days.

Thanks for that!!! Will pass it on.

well, and where is your proof that meat is needed at 6 months.

Breast milk is perfect enough for needs up to 6 months but after that it needs more. After 6 months, breast milk needs supplementing (and it is natural to do so) as is low in iron, zinc and Vit D for example.
[There are any number of refs below showing analysis of breast milk and these deficits. Compare with this:
REF: Institute of Medicine, Dietary Reference Intakes for Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Arsenic, Boron, Chromium, Copper, Iodine, Iron, Manganese, Molybdenum, Nickel, Silicon, Vanadium, and Zinc. 2003, National Academies Press: Washington, D.C.]

If you try to meet an infant's iron requirement on breast milk alone, she would have to consume between 4 and 13 liters of breast milk per day, depending on the baby’s efficiency of iron absorption from breast milk (estimates range from 15-50% absorption). Most exclusively breastfed babies don’t consume much more than 1 liter of milk per day.

There is a theory (for which I also included refs below) that the low iron in breast milk helps babies resist bacterial infections as bacteria need a lot of iron. However by 6 months, babies DO need proper iron, and breast milk alone is not enough nutrition.

Iron deficiency during infancy increases the risk of cognitive, motor, and behavioral deficits that may last into the teens, even with iron treatment.

Specific deficits that have been identified include impaired motor development at 18 months

Mental retardation is found at 10 years old
[REF: Hurtado, E.K., A.H. Claussen, and K.G. Scott. Early childhood anemia and mild or moderate mental retardation. Am J Clin Nutr. 69(1): p. 115-9. 1999.]

There is increased need to repeat a grade, and increased behavioral and attention problems.
[REF: Lozoff, B., E. Jimenez, J. Hagen, E. Mollen, and A.W. Wolf. Poorer behavioral and developmental outcome more than 10 years after treatment for iron deficiency in infancy.Pediatrics. 105(4): p. E51. 2000.]
