(Symphytum officinale)

 Description...

This herb has a very good reputation as a wound healer. It soothes, heals and reduces inflammation.

Taking this product internally raises some controversy and is not recommended unless you are under the careful supervision of a Health Professional. Comfrey contains a substance which can cause liver damage when consumed in large amounts. The active substance in comfrey is allantoin, which encourages new cells.

Although its internal use remains questionable, comfrey can be used safely on external injuries such as cuts and other wounds.
