Mallow is used as a gargle to treat mouth and throat ulcers. It is also useful for gastric ulcers.

The flowers and young leaves can be eaten. They are often added to salads or boiled and fried. They are also used in cosmetics for the skin.

might not be therapeutic but it would be a comfort

marshmallows on the end of a stick, held over an open fire till burned black then sandwiched between 2 digestive bickies with a lump of chocolate

how much more comfort food do you need.....
