This salve really is awesome! It does take consistent use to get maximum benefits but it really is wonderful. I've been using it for several weeks now since my total knee replacement and I'm totally impressed. I'm also using it on my feet and other joints and it really helps. Now I have severe inflammatory disease so it does not take my pain away 100% BUT it does help make it bearable so I can get things done. That's what's important to me. Anything that's natural and will help give me a good quality of life is what matters most! Anyone who tries this and uses it daily (it makes your skin feel amazing too 😊, buttery soft without the greasy feeling) will certainly see some relief. Charles I can't thank you enough! You're THE BEST!! Thank you for all you do. God Bless you and yours always, Lisa
Hi Lisa,what is the source of your water? Lime and Calcium cause inflammation in the joints. The Magnesium deficient diets that urbanites exist on cause the body to store calcium in odd places in the body, like joints, breasts, and other organs. Magnesium is needed 1:1 to transport Calcium through the body, like Vitamin C is necessary to transport Iron through the body. Try magnesium supplements and purer water to see if you gain relief. We are walking chemistry plants. There is a balance that must be maintained.
Hi Lisa thank you for your post I'm so glad that this country works for you I'm starting to use it now since I fractured my ankle this winter when I fell on some ice just wanted to let you know I had a lot of issues with a lot of hip pain not related to my injury knee pains just general joint pain and overall malaise and just so happens that a few months ago I started on the ketogenic diet for weight loss just before my injury and I tell you no need to take painkillers Osteo Bi-Flex or turmeric I never imagined that giving up sugar and carbohydrates would have such an impact on my overall joint health I am not taking anything I promise you and I have unbelievable energy no joint pain an unexpected side effect is I'm never hungry probably just have my morning breakfast a handful of walnuts in the afternoon and for the most part I'm skipping dinner for the last 3 months and have lost 40 lbs that's the best side effect ever a side effects go! Oh and by the way you don't have to be overweight to be on the ketogenic lifestyle a lot of people do just for health issues that people are trying to get rid of! And I have to say it really works yes you have to change your lifestyle a bit but it's well worth it to rid yourself of all the internal inflammation honestly if I didn't have to lose 50 lb I probably would have never discovered this miracle of the ketogenic lifestyle. I saw a movie on Netflix called the magic pill it is so impactful and informative I recommend it highly good luck and thank you so much for posting! I would love to hear if this works for you best wishes God bless!
I am thankful your family left us your treasures to come back and watch! Miss you but I know you are rejoicing in your new body and beautiful Heaven with loved ones and Jesus! Happy Heavenly Fathers Day!
God bless you Old Alabama Gardener RIP . Thank you for keeping all his amazing videos up , I truly loved all his amazing informative content ... Mrs Josette Tharp Montgomery ,Texas
I was in about 6th grade when I cut my finger really deep my dad mixed comfrey and I don't know if it was molasses or honey I literally saw my epidermis and dermis grow back and it grew from the inside out to where I actually saw my flesh growing back new flesh and healing that is what I saw and since then I've been stuck on it so I know for a fact it did not heal from outside in because I actually saw the layers grow from inside out
I’m assuming you kept the finger wrapped with some gauze or something, but did your dad apply the comfry mixture down into the cut also? And, did you clean and apply a new bandage with the comfry mixture daily?
My question is if your dad used an already made salve or was it the comfrey leaves wrapped with the honey/molasses so it would stay on your finger. It could make a difference because your wounds do heal both ways depending on the injury. There's a lot of information written about how to use the comfrey leaves on wounds do you remember which way your dad used the Comfrey?
I just made this with 1 cup of Calendula infused olive oil 1 cup comfrey infused olive oil, and 1/2 cup of rose petal infused olive oil with beeswax as as well, works amazing thank you so much for this recipe I will use it for the future as well godbless!
I love your simple recipe video on comfrey salve, quite different from what my mom used to whip Up! Her recipe was using the root not leaves beef tallow instead of beeswax, honey and a bit of alo vera and cook the ingredients together and strain the root pieces out & cool that is just making a quick small portion batch. It's off white but works like a Charm! But I want to give your recipe a Shot! ❤
Hi Tiffany, the root is much stronger, and can still be used. I haven't tried it yet. But my recipe works. Let me know what you think of it after you have tried it. OAG
Thanks for your video; it was clear and easy to understand! The description says this was 5 years ago. So if you ever wonder if you make a difference, here's the proof! I'm making a batch for my family and friends and will refer folks to your recipe!
Thank you - suggestion for those who prefer not to use bee products (vegans etc), I make salves with coconut oil and believe it wld work just as well with coconut oil. Also, I have never had a problem with 'going off' so maybe this wld not need evening primrose capsule additions..
My mom has been making these for decades and it's the best. She makes it from roots and with pork fat. I got injured knees and back from dancing and this healed me in like a month! I now make it for my husband whose sprained ankle healed in less than a week 😊
Great video thanks! Comfrey works wonders! Comfrey salve has lessened the pain of my arthritis like nothing else. I won’t take meds or have anymore replacement surgeries. New subscriber, thanks!
Excellent video, sir. My double-boiler is heating up and it will hopfully help with a wicked tick bite. I used the air fryer at 125°F for 5 hours with hand-ripped comfrey and the Instant Pot on Slow Cook with no lid for seven hours (overnight) .
This works sooo well!! I add a couple of essential oils for extra benefit and now it's becoming known by loads of people about my comfrey salve for pain and healing. I now have 13 people wanting it because it's relieving pain for so many things, even tendon and ligament problems as well.
Way back when, I injured the ligaments in my knee and some friends who were growing comfrey gave me a few large dried leaves. They told me to make a poultice to put on my knee. I think I was supposed to only use it for 12 days. Unfortunately I didn't have enough for that long, and didn't know where to get more. 😕
G'day OAG I am an Arborist on the Mid North Coast of NSW Australia, I was working with Silky Oak (Grevillea Robusta) this week and it turns out it gives me a skin allergy, I have a garden full of comfrey and am testing crushed comfrey leaves on the effected area but It's very itchy so I will give your simple recipe a go. Cheers Dave
How did I miss this?!! So glad I found it! Can't wait to harvest some of my comfrey and make this. I have everything I need just waiting on my comfrey to get big enough and I am sure that won't be long!!
He’s a true gardener- no gloves- last I pulled these leaves out the little sharp things slivered into my hands so bad… I am not a true gardener- proceed with caution new gardeners
Love, Love, Love this! I just dried a big bunch of Comfrey this past weekend and this is what I plan on doing with it. It's crazy what they are charging for just 2 oz of this stuff.

I bought jars like that of comfrey salve at 12$ a jar from the USA to Denmark. After shipping cost, VAT and VAT on the postoffice cost and VAT on everything else, they turned out to cost 208 kronas each, and the 16oz comfrey cost the same and also the white pine powder. That is 30$ per jar and per bag of herbs. Incredibly expensive. I might as well make it myself and try to get comfrey from Europe.
Hello SG, You can also make it using fresh comfrey leaves and later I plan to make a video on doing it that way. Thanks for commenting on this video. OAG
Darn it...I accidentally hit send. Sorry about that. I was saying...it's doing a great job helping with pain in my knee as well as pain in my ankles and heels. Thank you for such an awesome product. You're absolutely the best and I'm so very grateful. Love, hugs and blessings, Lisa 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I am looking forward to using your recipe here as soon as I have leaves enough to harvest.. The wonderful plants I received from you are growing really very well, including the bare rooted ones.
The comfrey you sent me is growing nicely. Very excited to start using in the garden and now this. It's got many useful things you can use it for. Including the comfrey tea video you made. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I am also waiting for my comfrey to grow in order to be able to make this. They are growing wonderfully. Thanks so much OAG foe them. I have liked and shared. :)

Great video! Thanks for the information and sharing. I've been making a comfrey salve since this past summer and getting great results for family and friends. Now I just need more comfrey plants. Thanks !
Anthony, *_you can make more comfrey plants from the one(s) you have. To see how to do it, Watch my video at:_* ua-cam.com/video/pvqUdxgQD8wO/v-deo.htmlAG
Great video I will have to try this. I also wanted to tell you thank you for the recipe you gave Danny and Wanda on how to can okra. I tried that this year, the first time I have ever canned okra and we love it, will be canning it from now on.
Hello Annette and welcome to my channel. I am happy that you are now canning okra. Actually, I like it better canned (with Apple Cider Vinegar) better than fresh fried okra. Thanks for commenting on this video. OAG
I look everywhere for comfrey so I can transplant it to my Oklahoma home. I keep trying to find it in woods and areas of woods and open fields. I laugh because I keep looking up plants and now I have a list of plants to forage. I think I found a little comfrey here in Ohio where I am visiting. So I guess I can cut it and take back home with me. I bet this chitchat was interesting. Well I am going to more vlogs you have made. So glad I found you.
Thanks to you! I am beginning to use it and I believe I see results already. I buy the wax bars from a local bee keeper. And as you see in the video it melts real quick. Thanks for watching. OAG
You are welcome Robert. Some time when I an traveling Highway 64, on my way to Memphis, perhaps we can have cup of coffee at a local restaurant i Savannah. OAG
I will get my dehydrator going today. Remember, it’s your comfrey that I’m growing! What a beautiful plant. I’m looking forward to learning more about ways to use this salve. Thank you, OAG. Continued blessings!
Growing up we used equal amounts compfrey honey and wheat germ oil. The vitamin E is natural to the wheat germ oil. I think I'll try making this with a no heat tincture using organic cold pressed oil and bees wax.
This salve really is awesome! It does take consistent use to get maximum benefits but it really is wonderful. I've been using it for several weeks now since my total knee replacement and I'm totally impressed. I'm also using it on my feet and other joints and it really helps.

I use comfrey also . Even the tea works ,when you put it on a open wound .
I bought jars like that of comfrey salve at 12$ a jar from the USA to Denmark. After shipping cost, VAT and VAT on the postoffice cost and VAT on everything else, they turned out to cost 208 kronas each, and the 16oz comfrey cost the same and also the white pine powder. That is 30$ per jar and per bag of herbs. Incredibly expensive. I might as well make it myself and try to get comfrey from Europe.

The comfrey you sent me is growing nicely. Very excited to start using in the garden and now this. It's got many useful things you can use it for. Including the comfrey tea video you made. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Hello Robert. Comfrey has lots of uses. I will be uploading more videos on it as I have time to make them. Thanks for watching.
OAG
I see no warnings about the fact that comfrey is an invasive and will take over your whole garden.
Thank you for the recipe. Im cooking up a bit tonight for a broken collar bone.
Thank you for your wonderful video. ❤️❤️❤️
I am also waiting for my comfrey to grow in order to be able to make this. They are growing wonderfully. Thanks so much OAG foe them. I have liked and shared. :)
Hi Janice, I am sure it will grow, it just takes a little time to get going. Thanks for watching this video.
OAG

I like the idea of using natural remedies , but what is this good for except dry skin ?
Great video I will have to try this. I also wanted to tell you thank you for the recipe you gave Danny and Wanda on how to can okra. I tried that this year, the first time I have ever canned okra and we love it, will be canning it from now on.
Hello Annette and welcome to my channel. I am happy that you are now canning okra. Actually, I like it better canned (with Apple Cider Vinegar) better than fresh fried okra. Thanks for commenting on this video.
OAG
OldAlabamaGardener ...you are so right it is better than fresh okra. Because I fixed some of both and everyone preferred the canned.
Great. Thanks for the video.
Thanks D. Thanks for commenting.
OAG
Thank you so very much, sir.
Regards from Scotland.
Looks beautiful, thank you. I appreciate this. We have our first comfrey plant, so we will be making some salve soon. 💜
Thank you! Just made my first batch, now just have to wait and see its healing effects on the body.
You are welcome. I appreciate you watching my videos.
OAG
Thanks for suggesting this. Plan to try this method with Plantain leaves.. They have wonderful drawing effect.
Let me know how it works for you.
OAG

Hello A, I hope all is well with you and husband. Thanks for commenting on this video.
C.
Thank you! Blessings to All!
I look everywhere for comfrey so I can transplant it to my Oklahoma home. I keep trying to find it in woods and areas of woods and open fields. I laugh because I keep looking up plants and now I have a list of plants to forage. I think I found a little comfrey here in Ohio where I am visiting. So I guess I can cut it and take back home with me. I bet this chitchat was interesting. Well I am going to more vlogs you have made. So glad I found you.
Contact me and we can talk comfrey.
OAG
Thank you! I just picked some comfrey.
Thanks for the video. I'll have to try this, as I have lupus and sure achy joints.
Hello Brenda, I believe it helps achy joints, but I don't know about lupus. Thanks for commenting on this video.
OAG
I plan to make some also when my plants put out more leaves
Hello Kaye, I have had a few people try this salve and they feel it works and of course I use it also.
C.
Another wonderful video.😊💕 Thank you Charles !
Thanks Paula! I am about out of this and I need to make some more.
C.
Thank you OAG! Looks like it turned out well. On Amazon you can order the wax pellets.
Thanks to you! I am beginning to use it and I believe I see results already. I buy the wax bars from a local bee keeper. And as you see in the video it melts real quick. Thanks for watching.
OAG
OldAlabamaGardener I have one comfrey plant that has already sprouted and I'm waiting for the others. I'm excited!

Growing up we used equal amounts compfrey honey and wheat germ oil. The vitamin E is natural to the wheat germ oil. I think I'll try making this with a no heat tincture using organic cold pressed oil and bees wax.
Yes, lots of ways to use it.
OAG
@Asa Olsen yes equal parts of each. I learned the recipe from Dr Christopher series of VHS tapes and books.
Thank you my friend. l will refer to this and make some. Best wishes Bobm
