Malva sylvestris
European and Mediterranean mucilaginous herb used for soothing respiratory, digestive, and urinary tract inflammation; gentle herb with long history.
Mallow (Malva sylvestris) is a mucilaginous herb traditionally used to soothe inflammation of the respiratory, digestive, and urinary tracts. Its primary active compounds include mucilage, malvin, anthocyanins, tannins, and flavonoids, which contribute to its demulcent, anti-inflammatory, and emollient properties. Clinical evidence supports its use for mild irritations, though most data are from traditional and preliminary studies.
Mallow's mucilage forms a protective film over mucous membranes, reducing irritation and inflammation. Flavonoids and anthocyanins inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, decreasing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Additionally, tannins provide mild astringent effects, while malvin exhibits antioxidant activity by scavenging reactive oxygen species. These combined actions underlie its demulcent, anti-inflammatory, and antitussive effects.
