The fluffy confection, marshmallow, gets its name from the marshmallow plant because confectionery marshmallows used to be made from marshmallow roots. Marshmallow root has been used for centuries for its many health benefits. Marshmallow root extract (Althaea Officinalis) may support healthy skin, aid digestion, promote heart health and support the lungs. Marshmallow root is rich in antioxidants, contains flavonoids, and may also have anti-inflammatory properties.
