SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Comfrey's historical name 'knitbone' directly reflects its wound healing reputation, which was so well-established in european traditional medicine that it was literally named for bone-knitting (fracture healing) activity โ a result of allantoin-mediated tissue regeneration. the modern cosmetic allantoin market originated from the isolation of this compound from comfrey root, establishing the plant as allantoin's 'botanical birthplace'.
