Which comfrey is used for poultices, comfrey leaf or comfrey root? I am using it for an inguinal hernia.

I have only used the leaf, and it has been remarkable for all my needs...over the last 40 years...the poultice is very effective for pain relief of whatever has ailed me, and it aint called knitbone for nothin'!

I have had experience only using the leaves, but from my knowledge, the root is often added to salves/extracts/ointments to give it a stronger potency.

Ideally you want to use the entire plant, root and all when infusing the oil

The important ingredient is corydalis, of course. I dont have the pills in front me now but if you want me to read off the back I can, let me know. If youre unfamiliar, corydalis is a natural herbal pain medication. I used to have terrible cramps every now and then that wouldn't respond to anything else but an intensive painkiller. Now I use them for back pain. One pill and my problem is gone. I'm really pleased because i hunted for years for something like the previous corydalis medication I had (from Australia) and couldn't find anything. This is even better than that was. I hope it works for you too.

Kale is considerably better than other greens such as spinach. Mainly because of the rigid stalk. Parsley, cilantro, romaine, spinach, all did not fare so well. Too much wasted juice in the pulp for my liking.

I pulled my grass out first. Then I redid it with Wooly Thyme, mother of thyme and patched of Elfin Thyme. Currently I am doing my side with Aubritea and creeping Veronica speedwell color tidal pool but I had to pull my grass first

It's a poly fiber that allows the roots to actually grow into the fabric. Not sure what other materials are used though. I know they work great. Make sure to get the ones with handles for ease of moving them around. I've been using them for 3 years and really like them. I switched to the tan/khaki ones because they reflect my grow light, light back into the center.

I'm not sure of all the plants used in it. I know it has aloe vera which helped me a lot during gall bladder trouble. I can contact the manufacturer until Monday. I will let you know something then. Do you have plant allergies? If you let me know what they are that may help.

1. do you mean geographically? then i dont know ... you should ask the brand owner.2. i have stopped purchasing Lakewood because i have found that i get the same health benefits from Welch's brand of 100% concord grape juice at a fraction of the price and you can buy them at any supermarket. i dont know if they are organic or not.

I planted 5 seeds and so far one has poked up through the soil. I live in So Calif and have kept them wet. The best way to grow these plants is to buy comfrey roots, but nobody wants to ship comfrey roots to Ca. :(

depends on what you are dealing with. Arnica promotes healing of bruises, injury, inflammation - not really geared towards pain... Comfrey is also meant to work on relieving pain...

I'm not sure what you are asking. Pycnogenol is a brand name that French Maritime Pine bark is sold under. One would think it would all be the same, but I didn't get the same result from the Vitamins Because Your (You're) Worth It brand as I did from the Now brand. I won't buy the "Because your worth it" brand again.

I'm not familiar with that product but I do know that white willow bark is a natural pain reliever that works sort of like aspirin. So, I would say that ILV Alleviate is a medicinal herb pain reliever while the hyaluronic acid works to improve the underlying cause.

Comfrey has this herb plus beeswax and Extra Virgin Oil Olive (refrigerate after opening). It is used for scrapes, bruises, abrasions. chapping, itching, burns, wounds, infections, foot pain (takes a while to work on the feet). I use it on my face to decrease wrinkles, and throat winkles and it helps a lot to diminish them. Bone and Tissue has 11 herbs plus wheat germ oil and beeswax. It helps bruises, stiff neck. sprains, strains, bone and tissue repair, it is a regenerative formula especially for arthritis it relieves pain over time. I would say both are good formulas. However, Bone and Tissues has more for the money. It you go to "Herbal Legacy" Dr. Christopher's web site you can read articles and find out how he has used his formulas.

You only put the leaves in after you turn off the heat. Then after 5 to 20 minutes you can strain and add honey. I wouldn't add sugar 'cause it's not good for you. And the whole point is for comfrey to help.

That is why I stated in my review that you should buy two different sizes. They manufactured the elastic bands too short. Hopefully the larger size has bands equivalent to waist size. The other brand I used had longer bands, but they are no longer selling. Next time I am buying a large. For all you out there contemplating a operation, research before you buy. The Hernia Institute in England is a treasure of info. For some reason England is far more advanced than the US, according to the information on their website. The mesh they use in america is not a great idea. It is prone to movement within the body, it is painful for quite some time, and can get infected. I have talked to people who have used this method. Many negative reviews. Any way you look at it, hernia's are a bitch. If I knew a place that had a perfect cure that lasted a lifetime, I would have been there long ago. Next I will see what's available in Canada and France. Somewhere in this world there has to be the right solution................ GOD Bless You All.

I have used both pycnogenol and French Maritime Pine Bark . . . both work equally well. I started using pycnogenol when I was doing some very strenous exercises to help keep muscle tightness and ache minimal. Tried French Maritime Pine Bark because this is the original type of tree bark used and am now using to relieve general inflamation.
