Marshmallow Cellular Extract is extracted rapidly under high pressure, we maintain the molecules’ natural integrity. Committed to conscious manufacturing, Cellular Extracts are created using purified, deionized, rain-harvested water and less plant material than past processes to produce a natural extract, that is eco-sustainable, traceable to source, transparent in composition delivering the brilliance of nature. The marshmallow has changed its shape many times since its inception. Althaea officinalis grows primarily in marshy wetlands, which is how it got its name, marshmallow. Every portion of the marshmallow plant is edible. For example, the flowers, stems, and leaves can all be used to make salads. But the main portions of the marshmallow that are consumed are its root and leaves. Beginning around 9th century BCE, the Greeks used marshmallows to heal wounds and soothe sore throats. A balm made from the plant’s sap was often applied to toothaches and bee stings.
