About This Product
CanPrev Black Walnut Complex is a nine-herb formula in vegetable capsules, led by black walnut hull, clove, wormwood and quassia. Black Walnut, Wormwood, and Quassia are traditionally used in Herbal Medicine as vermifuges (to expel intestinal worms). It is designed as a short course: the label dose is 2 capsules three times a day, and a bottle of 120 covers 20 days.
What Black Walnut Complex is licensed for
It is licensed for sale by Health Canada and bears NPN 80036020. The licence also lists:
- Calendula is traditionally used in Herbal Medicine to help relieve inflammatory conditions of the digestive system.
- Ginger is traditionally used in Herbal Medicine to help relieve digestive upset including lack of appetite, nausea, digestive spasms, indigestion, dyspepsia and flatulent colic (carminative).
The nine herbs, per capsule
- Black walnut hull (Juglans nigra), 110 mg
- Clove bud (Syzygium aromaticum), 85 mg
- Wormwood flower (Artemisia absinthium), 85 mg
- Calendula flower (Calendula officinalis), 60 mg
- Ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale), 60 mg
- Quassia wood (Picrasma quassioides), 60 mg
- Pau d'arco bark (Tabebuia impetiginosa), 50 mg
- Reishi fruiting body (Ganoderma lucidum), 50 mg

Black walnut, wormwood, clove and quassia are the bitter, aromatic herbs at the centre of traditional herbal formulas of this kind. Calendula and ginger are the two digestive herbs named in the licence. The other ingredients are hypromellose (the plant-based capsule), microcrystalline cellulose and magnesium stearate. CanPrev lists it as vegan and GMO-free, with no gluten, dairy, soy, wheat, yeast, sugar, artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.
A short, structured course
This is not an everyday supplement. The label sets a dose of 6 capsules a day, split across three times, and asks you to consult a health care practitioner for use beyond 2 weeks. Take the capsules between meals, or with food if you want to avoid digestive upset, and 2 hours apart from any medication or other natural health product.
Read the cautions first
This formula carries a long list of cautions, so read them before you buy. It contains walnut, so anyone with a walnut allergy should avoid it. It is not for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or by anyone trying to conceive, and the label lists several medications and health conditions where it should not be used, or only with a health care practitioner's advice. The complete cautions are under How to Take.
