Marshmallow has a high mucilage content giving it emollient and demulcent properties. Mucilage, when mixed with water, expands to many times its original volume. This can provide a soothing effect that may be of particular use in inflammatory conditions of the digestive system.

Indications For Use:

• Marshmallow may have soothing and demulcent properties due to its mucilage content.
• Traditionally used to help soothe irritating coughs.
• May help soothe the mucous membranes that line the urinary and digestive tracts.
