Marshmallow is a soothing herb traditionally used to support the mucous membranes of the respiratory and digestive systems. Its soft, mucilaginous qualities may help calm irritation, ease dryness and protect delicate tissues from inflammation or strain.
It has an affinity for the throat, lungs, and gut, providing gentle support where tissues feel raw, inflamed, or overworked. Marshmallow is often used during seasonal transitions, respiratory irritation or digestive discomfort, helping the body retain moisture and resilience.
Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis) contains polysaccharides, flavonoids, and mucilage that coat and protect tissues, supporting smooth passage in the digestive tract and easing coughs or sore throats. Through these actions, it may help calm irritation, soothe inflammation, and maintain healthy mucosal function.
