Feedmark Meadowblend Marshmallow Root (Equine)
Marshmallow Root (Althaea officinalis) is a demulcent herb that has mucilaginous properties to provide a soothing coating for the horse's stomach and intestinal tract, as well as support the respiratory system.
Marshmallow Root is native to parts of Europe, Northern Africa and Western Asia and has a high water-soluble mucilage content. This is a sticky substance that forms a gel-like layer over mucous membranes that line the digestive tract. Marshmallow is also supportive of respiratory and urinary health, making it a useful addition to the horse's diet.
The sticky substance forms a gel-like layer over mucous membranes from the respiratory tract right the way through the digestive tract. Marshmallow Root is ideal not only to settle respiratory issues but also for gastric and hindgut discomfort and disorders.
