I actually had to look up what mineral oil is, because I’ve never used it, but apparently it is an oil that is used on skin, so yes, it should be fine in this recipe. One of the reasons for the sudden fears around the ingestion of Comfry could be post the Chernobyl disaster. It has NO- parabens, sodium laureth sulfate (SLS), sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES), alcohol, synthetic oils, artificial colours or preservatives, animal additives or chemical additives.Most studies using topical comfrey applications used a standardized comfrey salve with 35% comfrey extract, while the dosage of homemade comfrey salve is unknown. However, manufacturers may make changes to product packaging or ingredients that are not yet reflected on our site. That would be equal to 284 degrees Fahrenheit and remember you’re wanting to gently infuse the herbs in warm oil, not fry them. This process is much the same as making comfrey oil from the leaves – the only thing that differs is the preparation of the plant.

Comfrey may not be an obvious choice, but it has always been such a kind plant to the garden that it should come as no surprise that is kind to the body, too. Not only does it speed up recovery on the surface level, but the primary constituent, allantoin, penetrates into the tissues of the body to speed healing of sprains, strains, and even broken bones. The mucilaginous nature of comfrey may start to clog up your cloth bag, causing water to be forced out the top of the bag, pulling herbs with it, and generally making a mess in your bath. The Herbal Academy makes neither medical claim, nor intends to diagnose or treat medical conditions.

It’s something about comfrey leaves that gives me trouble when I try to dehydrate them outside a dehydrator. It should be noted that, while allantoin is the primary healing constituent in comfrey, it is not the only healing chemical. Comfrey ointment can be used for relieving pain from sprains, arthritis and inflammation, as well as rubbing into bruises.
