Marshmallow Leaves

Marshmallow leaves, derived from the marshmallow plant (Althaea officinalis), have a rich history of medicinal and culinary uses. These leaves are believed to offer soothing and healing properties. They can be used to prepare herbal teas and infusions, which are traditionally used to alleviate coughs, sore throats and respiratory discomfort due to their natural mucilage content.

Apart from their respiratory benefits, marshmallow leaves are also employed to relieve digestive issues such as indigestion, gastritis and ulcers. The mucilage in the leaves forms a protective layer in the stomach, helping to soothe irritation and inflammation.

Topically, marshmallow leaves are used in poultices and creams to treat skin conditions like burns, insect bites and wounds due to their anti-inflammatory and emollient properties.

Marshmallow leaves offer a range of health benefits, making them a valuable addition to herbal medicine for both internal and external use.

Milk Thistle Seeds

Milk thistle seeds, derived from the milk thistle plant (Silybum marianum), offer a range of uses and health benefits. Primarily known for their liver-protective properties, these seeds contain an active compound called silymarin, which aids in detoxification and supports liver health. They can be taken in supplement form or brewed into a herbal tea for this purpose.

Additionally, milk thistle seeds have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which may benefit overall well-being by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. They have been explored for their potential to lower cholesterol levels and manage blood sugar, making them beneficial for heart and metabolic health.

In traditional medicine, milk thistle seeds have also been used for digestive issues and as a natural remedy for certain skin conditions. Their versatility and potential health advantages make milk thistle seeds a valuable addition to holistic wellness practices and herbal medicine products.

Aside from their culinary uses, dried orange slices have several benefits. They are a natural source of vitamin C and antioxidants, contributing to immune support and overall health. Their long shelf life makes them a convenient pantry staple, while their vibrant colour and pleasant scent make them ideal for crafting and home décor projects.
