BulkSupplements.com Marshmallow Root Extract Powder - Lung Support Supplement - Root Powder for Hair - Marshmallow Root Powder - Marshmallow Extract (250 Grams - 8.8 oz)

Excellent quality! Used this for in tea and it dissolves perfectly and tasted very good! Helps sooth stomach pain from gastritis. I was very pleasantly surprised and it exceeded my expectations!I use almost 2 c. water, heat it and steep a bag of tea (any kind is good...I usually use peppermint. The marshmallow root power doesn't really affect the flavor, it just adds a subtle creamy sort of taste). Remove steeped tea bag and add 1/16-1/8 tsp. marshmallow root powder. Stir until dissolved. I then add a little whole milk but that is optional. I just like my tea with milk and it adds to the marshmallow roots seamingly creamy taste. I drink this portion once a day when my stomach is flared up. It really helps my nausea, burning, stomach aches. Soothes and calms my stomach down fairly quickly after drinking. Tea can be refrigerated for cold preference and is good that way too.

My daughter bought this product and says: Good product and quite a decent amount of it for the price. I can't speak to the benefits of taking this as a supplement, but used this as one of the ingredients in my homemade shampoo. I am a biologist and chemist who finally got tired of not only the poor success rate of using chemical laden shampoos, but also the high costs for organic or seemingly "clean" products.So I made my own. This product is one of the key ingredients in my shampoo. Marshmallow root offers a non synthetic, chemical-free way of introducing an excellent smoothing ingredient that isn't silicone-based into diy shampoo. Hair is clean, nourished, and growing stronger than ever. Thanks BulkSupplements!

This marshmallow root powder is of good quality and it's mild in its taste. Marshmallow is used to soothe inflamed tissues of the respiratory system, digestive system, and skin. It has healing actions for the bowel, the bladder and the kidneys. It's often used to treat bladder and kidney infections and stomach ulcers. Marshmallow is also great for soothing dry coughs because it moisturizes the lungs.You can use this powder in the bath to relieve dry, itchy skin and eczema. Marshmallow is similar in its actions to slippery elm but it's better to use because slippery elm is endangered. This powder is perfect for encapsulating, to relieve bladder infections and other health issues.

This product arrived in a clean manilla colored envelope. Inside the actual Bulk Supplements package itself looked as though it had been recently dug up out of the ground. It was filthy dirty and sticky. I had to physically wash the packaging with soap and water. The cleaning process removed the cheaply made nutritional and instructional sticker. Upon opening I was surprised to see the marshmallow root powder was brown instead of white. If you google marshmallow root powder the images are of white powder. Since this was my first time buying marshmallow root powder I just wanted to make sure the color was normal.I went to their website and filled out the online form asking the following question:"I just opened and used your Marshmallow Root Powder for the first time. Why is it brown? Every pic I see of Marshmallow Root Powder shows white powder. By the way the packaging was filthy dirty even though it was inside an envelope."A simple and straight forward question and comment.The response was:Marshmallows today are only sugar-based confections made with water, corn starch and gelatin. That's why it's color brown or caramel-like. They no longer contain any actual plant extract. In Ancient Egypt, Marshmallow Root (althaea officinalis) was often boiled in sugar syrup and consumed for its unique, sweet taste and health benefits.No addressing my actual question nor addressing the disgustingly dirty packaging. This went back and forth several times until I finally gave up and called the actual company Hard Eight Nutrition (owns bulksupplements.com) in Henderson, NV. First question I asked "are the online questions responded to from an off shore customer service?" The answer was "yes", STRIKE 1! The next question I asked was "is the powder supposed to be brown?" The answer, "hold on I'll go pull the product sheet and see," STIKE 2! Being uninformed at the actual manufacturer is not encouraging when speaking to someone about products one ingests. The answer, "yes it's supposed to be brown." Final question, "why was the packaging so disgustingly dirty?" The answer, "sometimes during manufacturing the product gets a pinhole leak and it happens." STRIKE 3!!!! These are vacuum packed products. If there were pinhole leaks they would see it as the bag would suck air in. The amount of filth on the outside of this bag was no pinhole! It was dirty and very sticky. NO apology for the nasty packaging either. I've ordered several products on Amazon from BulkSupplements.com but it only takes one rotten apple, or in this case, one filthy package to ruin a relationship. The picture below does the filth no justice. You could feel it the moment you opened the outside protective envelope. It was sticky, grainy and disgusting. So, IF a pinhole is something that DOES happen on these supplements, how do we know the products are still pure upon arrival?
