I know they say we shouldn't ingest it, but my husband ingested it, and he still alive and well. Bare in mind he's ingested it MANY times!!

[@backyardfarmerpat]

I know a lot of people use the tea but I've never tried it. I won't based on what I've read. It causes liver damage long term even if you can't see it the first time you drink the tea

[@DChristina]

I drink the tea too, hasn’t don’t any ha to my liver. I think that warning came from Canada. I think the pharmaceutical companies put out these warnings about herbs to discourage use of what can be helpful and affordable.

[@sweetgie34]

In my experienced deinking boiled comfrey is ok. From my grandma down to my children whenever we have fever we boiled and drink. We dont take med just drink this comfrey. We dont have liver prob. tnx God.

[@DChristina]

@@backyardfarmerpat- “..based on what I’ve read”……sure, studies funded by pharmaceutical companies! Plenty of people have been drinking comfrey tea long term and I mean decades without a scratch. And I get my liver checked regularly with lab work as I have had hepatitis c but now no trace due to strong treatment years ago, liver is restored to health- not damaged by comfrey tea. Stop spreading misinformation.

[@greenhousefun3235]

Amen. I’ve been growing comphrey for years. I only use it for fertilizer.

[@backyardfarmerpat]

Wonderful!

[@sello-lawrence]

Very interesting 🌱👍🏼 We use comfrey as fertilizer in the garden and the bees 🐝 love the blossoms. Happy New Year 🎆 and all the best for 2024 🎊🎉

[@backyardfarmerpat]

Thank you! You too!

[@SowingNGrowing]

This absolutely works, I make it for years. I swear by it!

[@semsimama2191]

What do you use it for?

[@SowingNGrowing]

@semsimama2191 I use it for sprains and sore muscles. My grandmother loves it when I make it for her to use for her arthritis. My neighbor is 88 yrs old, and it's the only thing that helps her arthritis pain during winter.

[@backyardfarmerpat]

Wow! That's amazing! Awesome! Thanks for sharing

[@backyardfarmerpat]

I'm using it for pain in my hip and shoulder. Tons of benefits

[@SowingNGrowing]

@backyardfarmerpat I made mouth wash for sore gums/toothache using the comfrey, and let's just say my cousin swish it for 2 mins and spit it out and went to bed and she up with her gums and mouth feeling way better. And by the time she repeat the process in the morning toothache and sore gum was gone. When swishing, u have to do the swish as if u doing oil pulling. I don't understand how Dr. Big pharmaceutical people live with themselves, knowing that stuff like this is so powerful and instead give ppl terrible drugs.

[@AAHomeGardening]

@@backyardfarmerpat I use comfrey all the time We drink the tea as well ( even though they say it's not good)

[@-LOL69]

Hi, thanks for the video. How do you know when you can use the leaf, at what point is the leaves mature enough to be used?

[@backyardfarmerpat]

I don't think there is any limit on when you can use it. I just wait till the plant is big enough that using the leaves wouldn't leave it bald

[@AAHomeGardening]

yes man the 'knitback' plant - that what they call it in JA

[@backyardfarmerpat]

Good to know. I didn't know that. Cool!

[@AAHomeGardening]

@@backyardfarmerpat yes, especially in the rasta community

[@sweetgie34]

I grow up drinking comfrey whenever we have fever. But we dont have liver prob.

[@backyardfarmerpat]

Happy to hear. Stay safe

[@frangipani8019]

check with the Drs they dont have a clue what comfrey is ???

[@MireilleLiong]

Can you use coconut oil instead?

[@backyardfarmerpat]

I've never tried it with coconut oil so I'm unsure.
