What the Research Shows

Marshmallow root (Althaea officinalis) extract provides mucilaginous polysaccharides that form a protective coating on mucosal surfaces. Research supports its traditional use for digestive comfort, particularly for individuals with gastric sensitivity. The demulcent action soothes irritated tissues throughout the GI tract and urinary system.
