NOT FOR INTERNAL CONSUMPTION. DO NOT INGEST.
Comfrey (Symphytum officinale) is a plant that has been traditionally used for medicinal purposes for centuries. Comfrey powder is made from the dried leaves and roots of the comfrey plant, which are ground into a fine powder. Comfrey powder is commonly used in natural medicine, skincare, and gardening.
Comfrey contains several bioactive compounds, including allantoin, rosmarinic acid, and tannins, which are believed to have anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and wound-healing properties. As a result, comfrey powder is often used topically to relieve pain and promote skin healing.
Some potential uses of comfrey powder include:
-
Wound healing: Comfrey powder can be applied topically to minor wounds, burns, and bruises to promote healing and reduce inflammation and pain.
-
Pain relief: Comfrey powder may help to alleviate joint pain, muscle pain, and other types of pain when applied topically.
-
Skincare: Comfrey powder is believed to have skin-soothing properties and can be used in skincare products, such as face masks, to help calm and nourish the skin.
-
Gardening: Comfrey powder is also used in organic gardening as a natural fertilizer due to its high nutrient content.
Note: While comfrey was used for internal medicinal purposes for many years, it has recently been banned for internal use because it contains over half a dozen pyrrolizidine alkaloids, and may cause high liver toxicity. Do not ingest.
