Table of ContentsHow Does This Ayurvedic Herb Supplement Improve Wellness?CLINICAL AYURVEDIC REVIEWMarshmallow leaf coats better than marshmallow root, but marshmallow root has greater antibacterial and anti-allergy effects. Marshmallow is an osmotic diuretic - the mucilage prevents reabsorption of water in the nephron while soothing the urinary membranes. It's demulcent action is not only due to mucilage - it is also a reflexive demulcent that stimulates mucus production.
PrecautionsMarshmallow leaf is completely non-toxic. The Romans ate it as a roasted vegetable. Its mucilage can interfere with the absorption of other medicines.SUGGESTED USE
