Butternut bark, obtained from a species of walnut tree growing in the Southeastern U.S. and known to botanists as juglans cinera, is said to have many excellent therapeutic properties that may treat symptoms of cold and fever. Some herbalists commonly use it as a laxative and it may help to rid one of intestinal parasites as well; because of its antimicrobial effect, some have found organic butternut bark tea a good way to address gall bladder disorders. A paste made from juglans cinera powder may also be useful in treating certain skin diseases such as eczema.
Although organic herbs and other botanical extracts such as butternut bark are obtained by Starwest Botanicals and sold just the way Nature intended, they should be used judiciously. As responsible bulk herbs suppliers, Starwest Botanicals recommends that anyone considering treatment of a condition with dried herbs or other botanical extract consult a licensed herbalist or naturopathic physician; we can also answer questions you have about our herbal products.
