I buy comfrey extract and mix it in a good cream base. Why don't you go to the web site for ABC American Botanical Council http://abc.herbalgram.org and they will have some clinical data on comfrey that is reliable. --- On Tue, 2/2/10, Deborah Gerard <devorah...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Deborah Gerard <devorah...@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: CS>comfrey salve To: silver-list@eskimo.com Date: Tuesday, February 2, 2010, 7:45 AM Thanks Nancy...does your jar say anything on it as far as warnings?

I have used comfrey cream for years topically. I don't think there are any contraindications to using in cream form. --- On Mon, 2/1/10, Deborah Gerard <devorah...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Deborah Gerard <devorah...@yahoo.com> Subject: CS>comfrey salve To: "cs" <silver-list@eskimo.com> Date: Monday, February 1, 2010, 7:08 PM Well I ordered the salve, along with some other suggestions, and had it sent to my dad. Mom was reading the label and it said it could cause liver damage and possible death on it. Now mom is freaking out...any idea's on what I can tell her to make her feel it is okay to use the product on dad? thanks much Debbie
