        I’ve been reading up on comfrey a touch and have come across several sources saying to not use comfrey because it is possibly carcinogenic. Obviously so much on the internet can’t be trusted. Has anyone read on this? Doc, is this just another bogus study?

          Doc goes over a bunch of those studies in his Comfrey lesson

          Comfrey (Symphytum officinale)

              Yes thank you? I read that and already knew about the liver stuff. The carcinogenic part was just new news to me.
