About Marshmallow Root Powder 8 Oz. (227g), Contains

Marshmallow root (Althaea officinalis, sometimes misspelled althea officinalis or althea root) has played a role in both food and herbal medicine for centuries. The roots of the plant have long been harvested as a vegetable by the ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks. The traditional medicinal uses of marshmallow organic are reflected in its latin name Althaea, which comes from the Greek word althainein, meaning "to heal." Marshmallow root organic contains flavonoids as well as low concentrations of ceramide precursors. In addition to mixing with water and consumed as a wellness drink, powdered marshmallow root herb may also be added directly to foods as a thickening agent or a flavoring. While marshmallow tea has an excellent flavor on its own, marshmallow root and slippery elm are an excellent combination for supporting healthy mucous membranes due to the high mucilage content of both herbs. No GMOs. No additives. No preservatives. No fillers. No artificial colors or flavors. Vegan. Please note this is whole marshmallow root powder that hasn't been altered in any way, and this is NOT marshmallow root *extract* powder.
