Black Walnut capsules contain a blend of herbs traditionally used in herbal medicine to help relieve digestive disorders. Black walnut, quassia, wormwood and gentian root all contain extremely bitter components, including tannins, quassin, absinthin and amarogentin. These bitter components stimulate the nerves of the taste buds to increase the release of saliva and gastric juices to aid digestion. The bitter components can also bind receptors to endocrine cells in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas, causing the secretion of the peptide hormone cholecystokinin. In turn, bile salts and digestive enzymes from the pancreas are released, increasing gastric mobility. Gentian root and quassia may help relieve dyspepsia by enhancing prostaglandin-facilitated cytoprotection in the gastric membrane; prostaglandins stimulate the release of mucus and sodium bicarbonate in the stomach. Quassia, black walnut and pumpkin seeds are also used in traditional herbal medicine as vermifuges (to facilitate the expulsion of parasitic worms).
Adults: Take two capsules twice daily, fifteen to sixty minutes before meals, or as directed by your practitioner. For prolonged use, consult your practitioner.
