Herb Pharm Certified Organic Comfrey Liquid Extract - 1 Ounce (DCOMF0)

I purchased this with the hopes of avoiding $1,300 gum grafting surgery after having a root canal (the dentist also cut into my gums to make sure there wasn't anything going on under the gumline that couldn't be seen in an xray---or so she said, I don't know, I had got 20 different opinions from different dentists so I'm still confused as to what the real issue was to begin with). Anyhow, I've been using this faithfully every day for 3 weeks now and my gums have grown back - not to where they are completely "normal", but they've grown back A LOT considering I had ZERO gum around the front of one of my teeth to begin with (you could actually see part of the root). I just ordered my second bottle a few minutes ago, and I am looking forward to going back to the Periodontist in November for a "follow up" and hopefully hearing that the surgery is not going to be needed. I've taken pictures a long the way, and even my family has been amazed and say they can tell a difference from one day to the next.UPDATE (10/1/13): I only used about 1/2 of the second bottle, and it was still working wonders, but I decided to stop using it because it was staining my teeth really bad (on the back side where it can't be seen, but it's still not a pretty sight to me). I've decided to just let the rest of my gums grow on their own (which isn't very much to be "back to normal"), but the progress has definitely slowed down A LOT. I've been using Activated Charcoal to whiten my teeth, but it hasn't been something that comes off in a brushing or two. Also, I went to the regular dentist for a quick follow-up a few weeks after writing the 1st part of my review, and she was impressed with how fast my gums had grown too and asked me what I had been using. I told her, and she asked me what Comfrey is, and said she was not aware that it helped stimulate gum growth. She also told me, "If you don't mind the staining on the back side of your teeth, then I think you should keep using it", which surprised me because I figured she would say that I'm out of my mind for thinking that Comfrey was doing anything to help. Anyhow, I think that I've avoided gum grafting surgery, but I will know for certain next month (November), when I see the periodontist. I'll keep you all updated.UPDATE (2/20/14): Sorry I did not get back to updating this until now (I am three months late)! Anyhow, when I went to the Periodontist in November, he said that no gum grafting surgery was needed! He was very impressed with my progress and said everything was looking great. As noted in the 10/1/13 update, I stopped using the Comfrey and have not used it since - and I can tell. My gums have grown VERY VERY little since then but since my root is no longer exposed, I chose to let it grow at this slow pace rather than staining my teeth. I have another follow-up appointment in a few weeks, I hope that things are still going to be okay since the gums have not grown much since I stopped using the Comfrey.

must have ,good packaging

Good Product

Bought it to heal a sprained wrist that never healed, 4 months after injury. I have used comfrey in the past for a broken 5th metatarsal in my right foot. It was a miracle. Not the same brand as this however. I have used this on the wrist 3 times so far and I do feel it speeding up the healing. It is not healing quite as fast as my foot did with the other brand (from Poland) but it's definitely working. Comfrey is an amazing herb and when you can find it in its purest, rawest state, it will heal your ligaments and bones very quickly.

Just as i expected, well pkgd, seems to be good quality, using as a dryer day alternative to a salve i use at night for a torn muscle, seems to be healing nicely.I would like to point out that some reviews said the dangerous alkaloids were mostly filtered out, I re checked description and went to website and dont see anything that says that..I dont know if thats possible, as ive never seen Any product say that ...I would suggest reading up on many sites when using any comfrey item, Especially internally or in broken skin!As for myself, i have used it on broken skin ( would NOT use on deeper wound because it can heal top layer too fast, instead of healing from inside out)I also wouldnt use in Any form for very long periods of time in case there is a risk of liver problems ( I am not convinced that it would be a problem since from what ive read those doses were extremely high, also there are so many things in plants that work together its hard to know when part of it is studied alone. However since i like my liver, i think being a little careful is good, i also think using livercleanse capsules ( i use liversmart caps) is a good idea, not just with this but Any medication, junk food etc..I think comfrey and bloodroot are amazing!! I think both require some research when using to make an informed decision..Btw i ordered some russian comfreyPlants on amazon for medicinal and compost/ mulch but i will still keep this format on hand and will order again!《Update..used this in a.m. and dr. Christophers bone n tissue and cayenne at night.. in two weeks, only used this( pain was so much better almost forgot!..one more weeks pain was 0... had been 8-9 w/ sweating n nausea.so bad i had to knock myself out with benadryl at night!》AWESOME...BETTER THAN EXPECTED. .REALLY WAS WORRIED I'D NEED SURGERY OR SONETHIN!..

Comfrey is such a cool plant. Definitely do some research.I use this extract on my skin and nails. It has strengthened my weak nails that have ridges. My kitchen job is so hard on my hands. This helps me heal quickly over days off.

Made my legs feel stiff don't know why, but I stopped using it.

I heard about Comfrey after breaking both ankles. I bought Comfrey cream, ointment and this product. I’ve had great success using the creams and ointment in relieving pain, swelling and bruising. As I read reviews, I came across one that told about using in the mouth. She subsequently didn’t have to have jaw bone graphs due to bone loss. After using this, she didn’t need the graphs. Another person used this, with much success, on her acne. I am presently using a dropper in my WaterPik every night. I suffer from bone loss and will report back as to the effectiveness of my regimen. I also have light skin and have had pre-cancerous spots on my nose and face. They appear as a tiny bit red and rough to the touch. The Dermatologist prescribed a very expensive cream, over $200, to apply twice a day for 2 weeks. The last time I got one of these little rough spots I used as directed and the spot didn’t go away. I used the tincture, a drop, on the spot and the roughness was gone in 2 days. I’m now using it on other skin afflictions and will report back on this as well. I love this product!
