Tips

• Plantain leaf poultice is a classic first-aid remedy for insect bites — just chew a fresh leaf and apply.
• Comfrey leaf poultice is traditional for sprains and bruises (external only, intact skin only).
• Activated charcoal mixed with ground flaxseed makes a drawing poultice.

FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY. Do not apply to open wounds unless specifically indicated. Discontinue if skin irritation occurs. Some herbs (Arnica, Comfrey) should never be used on broken skin.

Make fresh each time. Do not store prepared poultices.
