When I mixed it with water it was very mucilagenous (again, as it should be) and perfect for my intended use.
There were a few minor clumps in the product, which is not a reflection of its quality - just smooth them out with a spoon, or run the powder through a sifter/sieve! - and no different from the clumps that form in corn starch.
I am perfectly pleased with this comfrey root powder, and would buy it again (sure beats digging out all the comfrey roots in my yard in the cold).
It seems odd that Amazon is asking how the flavor is. I’m pretty sure you are not supposed to eat it but I guess I will play along.
Four stars because not entirely sure what to think, on one side it kind of made my teeth feel better, but I don't want to use it again and risk staining my teeth. I'm scheduled to go to the dentist to finally fix my cavities, but I'm not sure what to think. Maybe I should give it another shot and really go hard on that diet, because I didn't really stay strict to the teeth-fixing diet.
Disclaimer: I did not ingest all of the necessary ingredients to heal my teeth, and cheated a bit with bread a lot and sugar occasionally. I took blended eggshell most or every night before doing this as well. I had it, but don't remember if I always took the Blue Ice HVBO. Maybe now that I'm at home (and not vacation- was there for 2 months) and drink raw milk and a more steady diet I can make this work, who knows. I've had a history of bad teeth so even if I get the cavities filled, this might not be the end of this journey for me. I will though definitely be staying sugar free. Keep in mind that whatever raises blood sugar will pull calcium, so even some sugar substitutes like sugar alcohol will be bad for teeth.
I've used comfrey leaf, salves and creams for years, great for burns, insect bites, rashes. But for severe injury, such as breaks, sprains and strains, the root is the most effective healer due to the abundance of allantoin in the mucilage. The anti inflammatory rosmaric acid is the pain reliever. I only use it for a short time and never had any ill effects.
