Walnut herbs refers to preparations made from the leaves, bark, green hull, or dried pulp of the walnut tree, used internally or externally.

📜 Where it comes from

Walnut preparations have a long history in European and Native American folk medicine, where the leaves, bark, and green hulls were dried and used in washes, tinctures, and teas. Traditional herbalists valued walnut hull preparations especially for skin complaints and as a general cleansing remedy. The practice carried into 19th and 20th century American folk herbalism and remains part of Western herbal tradition today.
