Herbal Intelligence
Phytochemistry
Marshmallow root (Althaea officinalis) is rich in mucilage polysaccharides, notably arabinogalactans and rhamnogalacturonans, along with pectin, starch and smaller amounts of flavonoids and phenolic acids.
Living tradition
Marshmallow has been used in European medicine since ancient times. Hippocrates recommended a decoction of the root, and Dioscorides listed it for a long run of complaints, though it is not certain that the Althaea of the ancient writers was always this plant.
Suggested use
2 tsp/cup, steep 10 minutes, drink as needed. Externally use cooled tea. May also be smoked.

Great alternative to tobacco and makes for a really smooth smoke. I suffer with nasal congestion and found this being added to my chop really helped make it last longer and ease the strain on my lungs.
Received the product quickly and the amount suggested,for one person ,can easily be used twice. Taste great.
Hey Tina, thanks so much for your feedback. We love the Marshmallow herb tea, glad you're enjoying it too
This has been my first foray into smoking herbs. I've never really been a true tobacco smoker - I was one of those people who could smoke a packet, then not smoke again for 12 months. But recently, I was smoking a lot of menthol (I just loved the taste). Well, the government took care of that. What was i to do? Then I discovered Happy Herb Co. Wow! The range of flavours and sensations is amazing! I ordered a few sample packs and a large pack of Marshmallow Leaves. Absolute bliss! A few days ago, I ordered the mega sample pack of 18 blends. I can't wait for it to arrive. Thank you Happy Herb Co. - I'm a healthy, happy convert!
First time i have utilised this herb. Ultra smooth. Easy on the throat. Refreshing taste. 10/10. And the Product quality and service from Happy Herb Co is Superb.
Thats great to hear, its our pleasure. So great you are making healthy herbal choices. Thanks Laura x
An amazing herb that has helped change my life for the better! I recommend using it as a mix with Damiana, Coltsfoot & Blue Lily.
So good you are off the nicotine. We also love passionflower for this as it is an addiction interupter, but it sounds like you have created a lovely mix already. Enjoy thanks Laura
