Wild mallow – action, properties, composition

Both the flower (up to 10%) and the leaf (up to 8%) of wild mallow contain  mucus rich in polysaccharides  composed of arabinose, glucose, galactose and glucuronic acid. It has a  coating effect on the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract and has an antitussive effect , particularly strong in laryngeal and tracheal cough. Additionally, the leaves contain  tannins , and the flowers contain  anthocyanosides  (malvin) and  phytosterols . The anthocyanosides contained in the flowers are responsible for  the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of the raw material. The antibacterial effects of mallow  are also known   . Its activity  against  Staphylococcus aureus  and  S. agalactiae has been demonstrated.

Malva ingredients soften and protect the mucous membrane of the upper respiratory tract, restore the movement of the ciliated epithelium, which in turn reduces inflammation.
