Black Walnut Complex - 120 V-Caps

Did you know that the black walnut (Juglans nigra) is a deciduous tree native to North America that is renowned not only for its valuable timber and flavourful nuts but also for its unique medicinal properties?

Indeed, it has a rich history of use dating back centuries. Native American tribes such as the Cherokee, Iroquois, and Osage used various parts of the black walnut tree. They consumed the nuts, ground the shells into a dark dye, and used the wood to make tools and furniture. Beyond these applications, it was also revered for its significant health benefits – most notably, for its ability to relieve stomach and digestive ailments.

The black walnut kernel is a naturally rich source of iodine and omega-3 fatty acids and has been shown to oxygenate the blood. The hulls are rich in tannins and other unique compounds that possess powerful anti-parasitic properties, making it a potent vermifuge to rid the body of intestinal parasites and worms such as ringworms, pinworms, tapeworms and many others. This herb is also effective at reducing constipation and healing skin conditions like acne, canker sores, eczema, psoriasis, jock itch, athlete's foot, and other fungal infections.

Black Walnut Supplement Varieties

Black walnut is found in a variety of supplement forms, including:

Capsules are one of the most common forms of these supplements. They typically contain powdered black walnut hulls or extracts in a convenient, pre-measured form.

Extracts are a liquid form that may be alcohol or glycerin-based and can be taken orally or used topically.

Tinctures are often alcohol-based and are taken in drops directly under the tongue or in water.

Powders, made by grinding black walnut hulls, can be mixed with water, juice, or other beverages, taken internally or mixed into a poultice, and applied topically to treat skin complaints.

Creams and Ointments containing black walnut are also readily available for topical application. They are effective for many skin issues, including eczema, psoriasis, ringworm, athlete's foot, and other fungal infections.

Chews and gummies are also available, which can be a more palatable option for those who have trouble swallowing pills.

Black walnut oil is another form of supplement that can be taken orally, added to food, or used topically to treat various issues.

Though black walnut is highly effective on its own, it is also frequently combined with other herbals (most notably, wormwood) to create comprehensive blends for specific applications, such as parasite cleansing.
