Guest guest Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 There are no studies that show that comfrey is carcinogenic to the liver, meaning causing cancer. There are some incidents of comfrey causing liver damage due too toxicity. it is very misleading to the public to put out the message that comfrey is dangerous. Comfrey like all other medicinal herbs is safe to use, as long as it's used in the proper therapautic dosage and used for appropriate conditions. The reports of death from liver toxicity from comfrey wasn't even from the sam species of comfrey used medicinally. Please do not scare people aware from using a plant that has benefitted countless people, including myself over many centuries of safe use.
