Black Walnut Hull
500mg
Cures ringworm, treats athlete's foot, fights jock itch, prevents certain cancers
"Have you ever seen what grows under a black walnut tree? Nothing. There's a reason for that: It contains a chemical that kills anything that it comes in contact with," says Christopher W. W. Beecher, PhD, associate professor of pharmacognosy in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacognosy at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
Some native American Indian tribes apparently recognized black walnut bark's destructive power and turned it against conditions like ringworm, a fungal skin infection.
And what's bad for your fungal infections, investigators say, may also be bad for cancer. During a study conducted in the 1960s, researchers injected two of the chemicals found in the hull of the black walnut into tumors in laboratory animals. The result: Both the size and the weight of the tumors decreased dramatically. Researchers investigating the same effect obtained a German patent in 1990 for this anti-cancer treatment.
