Comfrey

Comfrey has been used throughout history to treat a wide variety of ailments such as bronchial problems, broken bones, sprains, arthritis, gastric and varicose ulcers, severe burns, acne and other skin conditions. It has been found to contain bone and teeth building properties in children and has value in treating "many female disorders.” It has traditionally been called “knit-bone”, “boneset”, as well as its Latin name “symphytum” (from the Greek symphis, meaning growing together of bones, and phyton, a plant). Comfrey contains the small organic molecule allantoin, which is known to stimulate cell growth and repair while depressing inflammation.
