Product Details

Marshmallow root is a native plant of Europe and parts of Asia and Africa. Established throughout the ancient Egyptian, Arabian, Greek, and Roman cultures, this herb has continually been utilized for at least 2,000 years. The plant spread from Greece to Arabia and India, where it became an important herb in Ayurvedic and Unani healing traditions. In Ayurveda, the root was used to reduce vata (dry constitutional type) and increase kapha (wet constitutional type) and was considered energetically cold, sweet tasting, and moistening.

Traditional folk practices employed marshmallow to comfort the mucous membranes of the body, as well as an external poultice. Marshmallow root provides natural mucilage that supports, soothes, and moistens mucous membranes of the respiratory, digestive, and urinary tracts.

Our marshmallow root extract is macerated in small batches with organic alcohol by our qualified extract team. The tincture has a neutral, slightly woody flavor that can be combined with a variety of extracts including ginger extract or peppermint extract. Try adding a bit of marshmallow root extract to happy tummy tea for a well-rounded cup.
