Great stuff and NOT A POISON! Safe for consumption.
Got this originally for oral care. Although there are very many uses for this herb (look it up). I'm making a tea out of it and drinking it. Doesn't taste bad, it's bearable. You can always add some honey for sweetener. I'm using about one teaspoon per cup and boiling it for about 10 minutes, then straining it as this clump up as you boil.<br /><br />Contrary to all the crap out there on the internet saying that this is a poison, it is actually safe for consumption. The only study that the FDA and other organizations go off of is from an Australian study that was biased. It is said that in order for a human to be &#34;poisoned&#34; from comfrey root, you would have to eat about ten pounds of the leaves, every day, for three weeks to show even a mild liver impairment! If you dig enough online through countless stories, many people use this internally and have no problems with their liver. Remember, if it can't be patented and can't make tons of money for the health industry, the FDA will say it's bad. Just like they say mega dose of vitamin C when your sick is not good for you when yet, there is not 1 documented death of any vitamin. If a vitamin or herb actually works and heals someone, it will be slandered and degraded as &#34;not safe&#34; as healthy people don't make the medical industry a lot of money, namely Big Pharma!<br /><br />For gum health:<br />http://www.doctoryourself.com/gums.html<br /><br />For information about the studies conducted on comfrey root and testimonials:<br />http://simpleunhookedliving.wordpress.com/2012/07/30/controversial-comfrey-super-healer-or-lethal-poison-3/<br /><br />More information:<br />http://www.bodyandmindgifts.com/Folk-Medicine-The-Truth-About-Natural-Cures-Part-1-Calendula-Chickweed-Comfrey-and-Honey_b_4.html
