Herbalists have traditionally used the husks (hulls) of Black
Walnuts as a nutritional aid for the intestinal tract. Europeans as
well as the American Indians used Black Walnut as a laxative.
It oxygenates the blood which helps to kill parasites. Black Walnut
aids in expelling tapeworms and roundworms and has been shown to be
very effective in treating Candida Albicans. One study showed that
the fresh husk of the Black Walnut destroyed candida better than a
commonly prescribed anti-fungal drug. The tincture used contained:
One ounce of tincture of Black Walnut husk, plus a few drops each of
tinctures of lavender flowers, valerian root, and pau d' arc bark,
with 10 drops of tea tree oil. Others have just used Black
Walnut Tincture. Tinctures made with glycerol (alcohol-free)
seem to be as effective as tinctures made with alcohol.
Black Walnut is able to burn up excessive toxins and fatty
materials, while helping to balance blood sugar levels. It has been
highly thought of as a dependable remedy for "bad blood" diseases
such as syphilis and diphtheria.
It is also used for skin ailments such as herpes and eczema. The
green husk of Black Walnut produces a brown stain resulting from the
high organic iodine content. This makes it antiseptic and useful in
healing. Its properties are useful in all sorts of cleansing
programs.
Cautions: Black Walnut Hulls may possibly
