I buy my marshmallow root from Chandika b/c I know personally
the extremely high standards of quality that they insist upon.
I use this in my homemade herbal water/tea that I use daily, in
the a.m., and I choose this herb b/c of its lubricating ability,
to keep me moisturized from within. Dry skin is a thing of t he
past for me, using all VAidya's various approaches AND i live
at altitude!Even inVAta season, no area of my surface is dry, nor
within (eg. as in nasal passages)
