How It Works
Traditions hold that Native Americans used many parts of the black walnut tree, including the nuts, bark, leaves and hulls. They found them effective for skin conditions, nervous system health and for providing targeted intestinal system support.
As far back as 400 years ago, black walnut was used by herbalists for intestinal detoxification.
Black walnut hulls contains bitter compounds and naphthoquinones, like juglone, that protect the intestinal system in its battle against harmful invaders.
Much more recently, scientists found that this herb contains tannins with helpful tissue toning properties. Tannins also act as an antioxidant against free radicals.
Black walnut is a rich source of chromium, a trace mineral that supports healthy blood sugar balance.
Black walnut hulls are also high in iodine, an important mineral that is crucial for thyroid hormone production and healthy metabolic function.
Plus, black walnut hulls contain selenium, a trace mineral that is essential for the thyroid gland to produce hormones and function correctly.
Ingredients
Black walnut hulls extract, water and alcohol.
Quality
Our black walnut hulls grow in the eastern half of the US where local wild-crafters gather the hulls primarily by hand. They start off half green but turn completely black. Hulls are carefully dried and stored in a clean, controlled environment. A shortage of wild-crafters has made the material more difficult to harvest.
Our black walnut hulls are certified Kosher.
Recommended Use
Take approximately 20–25 drops (1 ml) with water twice daily.
One ml is equal to 2 capsules of black walnut.
