  • CAD: 26.64 $

Marshmallow leaf.

Botanical Name: LAlthaea officinalis.

Also Known As: Marshmallow, Marsh Mallow, or Common Marshmallow. Organic from Africa / Mexico. The leaves, flowers and the root of A. officinalis (marshmallow) all have medicinal properties. These are reflected in the name of the genus, which comes from the Greek althainein, meaning “to heal”. References to marshmallow leaf as a healing herb are found in Homer's Iliad, written over 2800 years ago. Marshmallow is traditionally used as a treatment for the irritation of mucous membranes, including use as a gargle for mouth and throat ulcers, and gastric ulcers.

[3] A study on rats concluded that an extract from the flowers has potential benefits for hyperlipidemia, gastric ulcers and platelet aggregation.
