Marshmallow Root Powder – Organic Dried Root Herb

Althaea officinalis

Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis) is a perennial herb from the Malvaceae family, native to Europe, western Asia, and North Africa. The plant produces upright stems reaching 3–4 feet tall, thick velvety leaves, and pale blush-pink flowers in late summer. The root — a long, thick taproot with a whitish-yellow exterior and fibrous white interior — is the primary botanical ingredient, notable for its naturally high mucilage content. Marshmallow root has a long history of use in traditional European botanical preparations, culinary applications, and cosmetic formulations. Certified Organic and Kosher. Origin: Italy.
