Frontier Co-op Marshmallow Root Powder, Certified Organic, 1 lb., 16 ounces

Large bag, good quality. Will keep me stocked for a while.

Oh how I love my Naturopath. I had been on prescription heartburn medication for nearly 20 years. Of course the MDs I have seen over the years didn't give a rat's *ss as to why my esophagus was on fire, why I'd wake in the middle of the night vomiting up food that I had eaten 14 hours earlier along with a truck load of stomach acid or why NONE of the RX heartburn medications they had put me on truly ever worked, or, or, or...anyway - MDs, go pound sand! This powder has been amazing. I mix a 1/2 a teaspoon of it into a smoothie or other drink twice a day and no heartburn AT ALL. I've run it through the paces too...late meals, huge meals, tried and true heartburn starters like chili, Costco hotdogs, V-8 and Coke Classic and ZERO heartburn. One night I fell asleep before I took my evening dose and I woke up at 2:20am with my esophagus starting to burn. I got up, mixed the powder in with some V-8, drank it and within minutes I was able to go back to bed without any burning...even with the V-8 added!!!! I will note that I am a picky eater and have many dietary restrictions and I do not like the taste of Marshmallow Root, it tastes like ginger to me which I hate. I mix it with V-8 or Gatorade or blend it in with my smoothies in the AM and it is tolerable for me. This product works so well that I would probably consume it as-is if I had to, but given the choice I'd rather mix it with something to mask the ginger taste. BTW the reason I had to get off of the RX was because it (like all the others) blocks the absorption of nutrients in the intestinal tract and I was anemic and had several vitamin deficiencies.

I don't need much marshmallow root powder to make my marshmallows, so I'll have this around for a long long time.
