About Marshmallow
Marshmallows are sweet, fluffy confections traditionally made from sugar, water, gelatin, and air, often flavored with vanilla. Modern marshmallows evolved from an ancient treat derived from the sap of the marshmallow plant, native to North Africa and parts of Europe. Today, they are primarily associated with Western cuisine and are enjoyed in desserts like s’mores, hot chocolate, and baked goods. While marshmallows are fat-free and low in calories, their high sugar content makes them a non-nutritive food with limited health benefits. They provide quick energy but lack vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Individuals should consume marshmallows in moderation, especially as part of a balanced diet, since excessive intake of added sugars can lead to health issues such as weight gain and poor dental health.
