At Diochi, we understand the power of traditional herbs that have accompanied humanity for centuries. One such herb is marshmallow (
Marshmallow can grow up to 180 cm tall and is characterized by its finely pubescent leaves and light pink flowers. It most commonly grows on moist, sandy soils near rivers and wetlands. It blooms during the summer, typically from July to September, becoming a prominent feature of the natural landscape.
The most valuable part of the plant is its root, which contains a high proportion of mucilaginous substances. These have been used for generations primarily to soothe irritated mucous membranes and promote respiratory comfort. The leaves and flowers of this delicate herb were also used in traditional folk medicine.
Interestingly, marshmallow was instrumental in the creation of the original recipe for the well-known confection, marshmallow. In ancient times and later in France, a sweet substance similar to today's marshmallows was prepared from its root, although modern products usually do not contain real marshmallow.
Marshmallow has found its place not only in traditional care for the body but also in the kitchen. Young leaves could be cooked as vegetables, and buds were sometimes pickled similarly to capers.
At Diochi, we value this exceptional herb so much that we have included it in our products. Marshmallow is an ingredient in the bio-informational drops Baktevir, where it complements the synergy of carefully selected herbs designed to support the body's natural harmony, respiratory system, and digestion.
You can also find it in the Baktevir tea blend, which was created to support breathing, especially during periods of weakened immunity and increased stress. In combination with other traditional herbs, such as coltsfoot, black elderberry, or licorice root, it creates a harmonious blend suitable for caring for the respiratory system and overall vitality.
