A spontaneously flowering herbaceous plant, mallow has been used since antiquity for its calming, refreshing, anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties. A medicinal plant for both children and adults, it contains mucilages that help combat inflammation of the mucous membranes and absorb toxins. It contains vitamins B1, B2 and C, carotene, potassium, tannins, and flavonoids, the combination of which combats viruses and bacteria in the lungs and intestines. Malvin and malvidin give it demonstrated antispasmodic, diuretic effects and the ability to reduce the fragility of capillaries. Organic mallow extract can be used in compresses and soak treatments for ocular inflammation, Rosacea, and tired feet. It is also commonly used in cosmetics due, above all, to its emollient properties and where it is found in toothpaste, mouthwash, eye drops, creams, lavages, soaps and shower gels.
