Pyrethrum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrethrum
this is a natural insecticide that could possibly help to PREVENT medical problems. Look into why this substance as a product is not in the market place.

Similarly this man's work in mycology is impressive. The insecticidal fungus is particularly amazing.

Interesting that this company has no wikipedia presence, very little web search hits, and is otherwise difficult to come across, despite their existence since 1902:
McLaughlin Gormley King Company

Even more interesting that MGK was recently made a subsidiary of Sumitomo of Japan, which as of June has partnered with Monsanto for herbicides focused on the toughest "weeds" to control.
Also interesting to read that tests on lab animals showed no significant mortality increase until pyrethrum levels were insanely high:
Rat and rabbit LD50 levels for pyrethrum are high (safe), with doses in some cases of about 1% of the animal's body weight required to cause significant mortality similar to levels in synthetic pyrethroids.[4] Nevertheless, pyrethrum should be handled with the same caution as synthetic insecticides.[5]
MOST interesting is how I have seen so much environmentalist energy against Monsanto, for so long; but I have never lent my energy because .. I have never heard anyone site the kind of connections this question led to. I will do some more work in this area now that i see a glimpse of its vocabulary.

A quick etymology check on Comfrey was stunning.
Com (con) - together, union, healing
frey - fire, energy, to boil
So.. does that make "Heat it up or boil it to heal." Looks so to me.
