Comfrey Root has been used historically since the times of the ancient Egyptians and Greeks to combat Eczema, Acne, Psoriasis, Sunburn and in wound care. In 1912, scientists submitted samples of Comfrey Root for chemical analysis and thereby isolated the compound Allantoin (later found in many forms, both vegetable and animal as a metabolite) as being the primary active. This compound was used during World War I to treat refractory wound infections, saving many limbs from the ravages of gangrene.

Here at the PuraVeda Organics lab, our Allantoin is naturally steam extracted from Organic Comfrey Root (Symphytum Officinale). In addition to its superior healing properties, Allantoin's cellular regeneration properties make it an optimal Organic/All-Natural ingredient in Anti-Aging skincare products. Allantoin is a great natural moisturizer for dry and irritated skin issues, and provides a wonderful organic solution to help combat the skin aging process. Allantoin is odorless, non-irritating, non-toxic, and non-allergenic, making it ideal for skincare products for all skin types.
