I bought this only because I wanted a natural remedy for my constant (inner) mouth sores. The sore starts out feeling like a scratch or annoying pimple usually in the gum area and then turns white and throbs, 24/7. Eating, drinking, breathing- is painful. I get them inside my mouth after too much spicy food. I also can get them when stressed or when monthly hormones change. I have used everything, but this is internal so not much relief is available. NOTHING works and the pain is horrible and lasts for days for EACH sore. But I found reviews all over the internet that this, ALUM, was the solution, and guess what.... it IS! I just used my finger and dabbed it on my sore (it's like fine salt) and after the initial burn, my sore started to tingle and then felt better- fast. The taste is TERRIBLE, but fades quickly. It has been a few hours now and it still feels better. I will do this again before bed. This little bottle will last a lifetime and is worth every penny.

My husband gets a lot of canker sores inside his mouth and this really helps him. When he feels one coming on, he mixes a tiny bit with water on qtip and applies it to the sore.

My girlfriend is convinced that her canker sores have been smaller, less painful and last longer since she started putting this on her canker sores.
I cannot find any real evidence in the medical literature (though I can find plenty on huffpo) that this works. Alum has been used to treat genital herpes in mice, but canker sores are different than simplex virus so that is useless and some people are pushing alum, bendryl and motrin through clinical trials for aphthous stomatitis.... Right now its placebo effect at best.
I guess this stuff is used for pickling.... I know nothing about that, but I will say make sure you DON'T SWALLOW this stuff and rinse your mouth with water really well.
My review is completely circumstantial and all that I can report with confidence is that I haven't heard about any canker sores since this stuff arrived.

I bought this to use it to keep my hidrengia alive in my flower arrangement and it works perfectly:) I dip the end of my steams in it and it helps my hidrengia to stay alive for days
