Dosages (English Walnut) — Five tsp chopped leaf/cup water (externally only; APA); 2–3 g
leaf/100 ml water for compresses (KOM); 3–6 g (PHR); 4–8 ml liquid leaf extract (PNC).


Contraindications, Interactions, and Side Effects (English Walnut) — Class 2d. Juglone is
mutagenic. External carcinogenic effects noted after chronic external use (AHP). None known for
the leaf at proper dosage (KOM; PHR; PH2). Commission E reports fruit shell not permitted for
therapeutic use; usefulness not adequately documented. Fresh shells contain the naphthoquinone
constituent juglone, which is mutagenic and possibly carcinogenic. The juglone content of dried
shells has not been studied adequately (AEH). Good source of dietary serotonin, quickly broken
down in the gut (where there are serotonin receptors).
