Not necessarily. Most people allergic to walnuts are allergic to the

proteins in the " meat " of the nut. The hull has different constituents.

Keep in mind though that the hull is very high in iodine. This can be

important if you are allergic to iodine or are hyperthyroid.

High doses of black walnut hull should also be avoided. The hull

contains the compound juglone, which can be toxic in high doses. On the

other hand, juglone is a mitosis inhibitor. This makes it very useful

in controlling the growth of yeast and cancer cells.

Just as a note: Black Walnut Formula is helpful for both the under and over active thyroid!! It balances the thyroid function!

I have to disagree. I still feel the very high iodine content of

black walnut hull increases the potential for hyperthyroidism, and

should definitely be avoided by those with hyperthyroidism. Here is a

link to an iodine rich medication, and it's warnings about

hyperthyroidism:

Here is another one:

cmd=Retrieve & db=PubMed & list_uids=11396708 & dopt=Abstract

 

For people with hyperthyroidism I prefer to use melissa (lemon balm),

and bugleweed to suppress thyroid function. My favorite herb for

thyroid balance is coleus forskohlii, which elevates levels of cyclic

adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). This compound, cAMP, is an enzymatic

regulator for various processes in the body including thyroid

regulation, histamine and leukotriene inhibition, prostaglandin

inhibotion, which also lowers blood pressure, thermogenesis, etc.

Wow, that's interesting.. it supports low and high thyroid conditions, AND it

kills

parasites..

 

How much would be too much, and how often would be too often to take it? It

seems

pretty powerful. (I know it's real hard to get off your hands, in it's " native "

state, too..

The staining of the skin is due to the very high iodine content of the

hulls. Since excess iodine is known to be cause of hyperthyroidism I

still would not recommend it in cases of hyperthyroidism. Even the

seawed bladderwrack is contradicted in hyperthyroidism due to its high

iodine content, and its iodine content is a lot lower than that of

black walnut hulls.

Though the juglone content is of the most concern. What is considered

too much is hard to say since the content would vary from crop to crop,

and what level is toxic for one person is not going to be toxic to

someone else. So it is best to error on the side of caution and keep

with low doses and occasional breaks. It should not be used at all by

pregnant women or those that think they may be pregnant due to the

mitosis inhibition of the juglone.
