Marshmallow has a high mucilage content. It has been used historically for respiratory support and to soothe inflamed mucous membranes.

Marshmallow has been used in healing for some 2,500 years. Ancient cultures considered marshmallow a food to be eaten during times of famine, as well as a natural healer for abscesses and boils, burns, digestive upset, inflammation, insect bites and stings, sore throat, toothache, urinary irritation and wounds.

Marshmallow contains mucilage which helps aid the expectorant influence of difficult phlegm and helps relax the bronchial tubes, while soothing and healing. It is valuable for all lung ailments and is especially good for asthma, and helps remove mucus from the lungs. It heals inflammation and prevents gangrene and other infections.
