Black walnut fights
parasites & candida |
|
|
Black walnut is
primarily used to
treat parasitic
infections in the
gastrointestinal
tract. It contains
compounds that kill
some forms of
parasites. It also
has laxative
activity to flush to
parasites out of the
body. Externally it
has been used to
heal wounds and
fight fungal or
b\viral (warts) skin
infections. Some
studies show that
black walnut may be
useful to treat high
blood pressure and
cholesterol. |
Parasites follow egg
and larval phases
with hatching
usually occurring
around the time of
the full moon. Most
anti-parasitic herbs
will not kill the
parasites if they
are still in the
eggs. It is most
effect to begin
parasite cleansing
around the time of
the full moon and to
continue cleansing
for a few moon
cycles. When doing
a parasite cleanse
it is advisable to
seek help from a
health professional
who can monitor your
progress and
decrease possible
treatment side
effects.
Most black walnut
supplements are made
as encapsulated
dried husks or bark,
a tincture of the
same plant parts or
loose dried herb.
Do not use black
walnut for prolonged
periods of time
because it contains
chemicals that can
cause cell
mutations. For
the same reason
black walnut should
not be used during
pregnancy. You can
become dependent on
the laxative
activity of black
walnut. |
