The Benefits of Marshmallow Root Tea 🌿✨

Marshmallow root 'tea' (really a cold-infusion) is a soothing, time-honored herbal remedy that has been cherished for centuries. Made from the root of the Althaea officinalis plant, this gentle concoction is known for its naturally calming and healing properties. With its smooth, slightly sweet and strong earthy flavor, marshmallow root 'tea' is as comforting as it is beneficial. We use this as our first defense to heal stomach upset, or heartburn and use about 1/2 cup twice a day for about 3-4 days (longer if needed). **but this is not meant to be taken every day long term it is an HERBAL Medicine meant for healing. COLD INFUSION = letting herbs sit in room-temp water for about 8 hours to infuse the water with medicine. Some herbs do even better medicinally in a cold infusion rather than a true TEA (boiling water and steeping it).

Here are some of the wonderful health benefits it offers:

• Soothes Digestion – Marshmallow root contains natural mucilage, a gel-like substance that coats and calms the digestive tract, easing discomfort from indigestion, heartburn, or mild irritation.

• Supports Respiratory Health – Traditionally used to ease coughs and sore throats, the soothing properties help calm irritation in the lungs and throat.

• Hydrates & Supports Skin Health – Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory qualities may help support skin wellness from the inside out, while the tea itself helps promote hydration.

• Gentle on the Body – Naturally caffeine-free, marshmallow root tea is a calming option for any time of day, making it a beautiful addition to your self-care routine.

• Supports Urinary Health – Historically, marshmallow root has been used to soothe the urinary tract and promote comfort.

Marshmallow root tea is more than a beverage—it’s a simple, grounding ritual that connects us to the wisdom of traditional herbal remedies. It’s one of nature’s gentle ways of bringing balance, comfort, and wellness into daily life.
