What is Comfrey?
The most interesting health benefits of comfrey include its ability to reduce pain, eliminate inflammation, boost the immune system, promote growth, and strengthen bones. It also helps heal skin, improve respiratory health. Comfrey is actually a broader genus scientifically known as Symphytum, which is used extensively in herbal medicine. Some of the more unusual chemicals found in it include allantoin, inulin, tannins, saponins, and beneficial proteins. More information can be found HERE.
What is Plantain?
Plantain, also known as broadleaf plantain (Plantago major), is native to Europe and certain parts of Asia. This perennial plant produces greenish flowers and has large, oval-shaped leaves that can be eaten raw or cooked. Despite sharing its name, plantain weed is unrelated to plantain fruit, which is a type of banana. Preliminary studies have shown that Plantain can help to decrease inflammation, support wound healing, and soothe skin irritation. More information can be found HERE.
What is Jewelweed?
Jewelweed boasts anti-fungal and antimicrobial properties. It’s often used as a sole or base ingredient to get rid of poison ivy, dermatitis, to treat bug bites and stings, cure athlete’s foot, minor burns, swelling around bruises, joint pain, inflammation, in the promotion of steady blood flow post childbirth, and poisoning from fish. Applying directly onto the skin after a bug bite or sting or coming into contact with poison ivy, poison oak, or poison sumac, the sense of relief comes almost instantly. Learn more HERE.
