Moistens and Soothes Digestive & Respiratory Tissues Marshmallow (the plant, not the sugary s’mores confection) was used daily in ancient Egypt and Greece. Over the centuries, the marshmallow plant was commonly used for respiratory and digestive issues and even as a subsistence food. Marshmallow Root is best known for how it benefits the mucous membranes of the body. It is a highly mucilaginous herb (that means it’s gummy, slimy, or slippery) and soothes irritated mucous membranes. The roots are used in herbal traditions to soothingly coat mucous membranes, cooling, protecting, and strengthening them. NOTE: Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant, taking medication, or have a medical condition. SUGGESTED USE: 1/8 tsp (.63 mL) 1 to 3 times a day or as needed. Shake well.
