 Marshmallow root (Althaea officinalis) is a plant-based ingredient derived from the roots of the marshmallow plant.This perennial herb has erect woody stems that grow 60-120 cm tall. Its leaves are alternate, ovate to slightly heart-shaped, with a serrated edge and a soft, velvety texture due to dense stellate hairs. The leaves can be up to 3 inches long and 1 inch broad, and occasionally have three to five lobes. The stems die back in autumn but produce simple or few-branched growth during the growing season. Flowers are pale pink, axillary, and surrounded by a six- to nine-cleft involucre. They resemble those of the common mallow but are smaller and paler. In late summer (August-September), flowers give way to flat, round fruit called "cheeses", characteristic of this plant order.

Here is the rewritten text: The roots used are from commercially grown plants that are at least 2 years old and harvested in autumn. According to the Council of Europe, marshmallow is a natural source of food flavoring, allowing it to be added to food products in small quantities with some limitations on active ingredients. Historically, marshmallow has been approved for use in foods in the USA.

How to use:

Hot Infusion:

To prepare dried herbs or flowers, combine 2-3 tablespoons of the dried material in a cup or teapot. Pour hot water over it, then cover and let steep for 10-30 minutes. This process helps release the active compounds, including antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins, flavonoids, and volatile oils from the botanicals. Strain and press out as much liquid as possible before serving.

Tips:

• Herbal teas can be sweetened using honey, natural fruit juices, stevia leaf powder, or licorice root powder.
• Freeze tea in ice trays or pop molds to create ice cubes or pops.

Precautions: 

Before using this herbal product, it's essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medication.
