Marshmallow, often prized for its soothing properties, is a remarkable plant in herbal medicine. Known for its gentle, protective effect on mucous membranes, marshmallow is particularly beneficial for the respiratory and digestive systems. Its richness in mucilage, natural polysaccharides, gives it moisturising and softening qualities, ideal for soothing irritation and inflammation.
In herbal medicine, marshmallow is used for its emollient and expectorant properties. It helps to soothe coughs and relieve sore throats by forming a protective film on the mucous membranes. It is also effective in soothing digestive problems, such as heartburn and gastritis, by promoting comfortable digestion.
As an infusion, marshmallow helps to soothe the respiratory tract and provide natural relief from irritation. Its moisturising properties also help to keep skin soft and well hydrated. It is a precious ally for maintaining comfort and serenity in everyday life, while adding a touch of softness to your moments of relaxation.
By making marshmallow part of your well-being routine, you can benefit from its calming and protective effects, enjoy its respiratory and digestive health benefits and appreciate its delicate, slightly sweet taste.
