NOW Supplements, Green Black Walnut Wormwood Complex Liquid with Dropper, Herbal Supplement, 2-Ounce

Sounds a bit dramatic, but in my case I know this product has brought me back to the land of the living. I'm writing this review in the hope it might help someone out there as it has helped me.I decided to try this as many have after having chronic health issues for the past 2-4 years, which in the past few months were seriously impacting my quality of life. Carcinoid cancer was suspected, but not confirmed after several tests. Like others, doctors wanted to continue with expensive tests and additional medications as none were conclusive or entirely effective. I had constant gastrointestinal problems, facial flushing, migraines, debilitating fatigue, constant unproductive cough with wheezing, shortness of breath, bloat, abdominal pain, a large, hard lump by my spine was growing and protruding out from my back. It occasionally ached. I had acute pancreatic attacks that felt like I was having a heart attack. The worst was the drying of my eyes which diminished my eyesight and would sometimes result in sharp, excruciating pain behind my eyes, particularly my left eye. I had to tape my eyes shut at night to keep them moist, or pay the painful consequences when I tried to open my eye lids upon awakening. My skin was yellowing, and my eyes seemed to be sinking in their sockets. I was losing hair (fortunately, I have a lot of it), but it was mainly breaking off. I was constantly nauseated which resulted in my eating very little, and only eating a handful of the same things because that was all I could tolerate. Despite this unintentional semi-fasting state, my abdomen seemed to be increasing in size. I no longer had the strength to jog or exercise, had very limited energy, and could easily sleep for nearly an entire day without feeling rested. Quality of life was down the toilet and I became increasingly reclusive. When you don't feel or look well, you find you retreat more and more into yourself. I and my family were certain that once they finally figured out what was wrong with me, (was it CS, IBS, CFS, Chron's, etc.) the prognosis would be grim. I began to mentally prepare for that.Then one day, I noticed something unusual looking after a bowel movement. Since Carcinoid Syndrome effects the gastrointestinal system, I was advised to be monitoring such things. It was long (4" - 5") and alabaster white, about as thick as thin spaghetti. It had a smooth surface, but at one end it diverged off into 3 separate "segments" which curled at the tips. Whaaaaat is that?! This occurred after eating a large amount of fresh garlic during the previous meal, but looked like nothing I had eaten, ever. About 4 months earlier I had also notice what looked like it could be a small, 1" worm, rice-shaped, but not being sure and not wanting to "investigate" further I dismissed it. I told my boyfriend and being the google wiz he is, he found images online of what I had just seen: roundworms. Toxocariasis, in fact. Toxocariasis is an illness caused by larvae of either the dog roundworm (Toxocara canis) or the cat roundworm (Toxocara cati). We have both a dog and cat who had worms, and I volunteered for a cat rescue group taking care of sick, feral kittens before I started to have the above symptoms.We figured it couldn't hurt to purge myself of what might be ailing me. Started with Reese's Pinworm treatment, although I had no symptoms for pinworms it did contain a prescription strength dosage of mebendazole, which is also used to treat roundworms. The same day, I took my first dosage of Wormwood. The Reese's certainly got the ball rolling, but did not complete the job. I took half a dropper full 3x of the Now Foods wormwood complex the first day and worked my way up to 2 full droppers, 3x per day by day 7. Be SURE to put the filled dropper as far back toward your throat and tongue as you can without gagging before releasing the dose. Have something to drink right next to you when you do (I had de-fizzed diet 7up to the right, cold water to the left). Shoot the tincture of wormwood down your throat, swallow, and take a drink. You mostly taste cloves. It's strong, but manageable. And the health benefits make the taste issue totally worth it. After a while, you actually want to take your dose. (My boyfriend put his dose in hot tea and said he couldn't taste it when taken that way)I started to see small, white specimens passing (1/3 to 1/2 the size of a grain of rice), hundreds of them, by day 3 or 4. But it wasn't until day 7 that I saw clear signs of a parasitic infection. My eye pain and inflammation was lessening, as was the size of the lump protruding from my back. And also by this time, my energy level was way up. No more headaches, no bloat, no abdominal pain, no gastrointestinal distress, no chest pain and coughing/wheezing cut in half. By the end of the first 2 weeks, I was passing what could have only been adult worms. Horrifying!I took the 1 week break, then kicked off the next two weeks with another dose of Reese's followed right after with 3 dropper fulls of the wormwood. Within 4 hours of this regime I eliminated what I can only describe as something from a sci-fi flick. It is still hard for me to believe it. Those things were literally eating my life and vision away. By the end of week 3, a small lump appeared in the corner of my left eye, with some hardening around my tear duct. I pressed on it, and opaque-colored fluid began to ooze from my eye. After applying warm compresses and pressure to the area for 24 hours, the lump and harness were gone. And so was my eye pain, dryness, and chronic ocular inflammation. The worm, invading my left eye, had turned - literally. So did the one on top of my right foot, and shimmying down my left thigh. The wormwood had them dieing off and on the run. I did experience 2-4 days of "die off" symptoms during the first and second treatment, mostly a return to extreme fatigue, headaches, and some nausea. But it was nothing compared to how I had been suffering before I took this treatment. You'll get through it. And thankfully I did not experience any of the side-effects some people sensitive to Thujone may have. Please start out with a light dosage and work your way up to the 2 full dropper fulls (or more) 3x per day to ensure you don't have any sensitivity either. Google "Thujone" or "Absinthe overdose symptoms" so you know what to look for.By the end of the 4th week I felt alive again for the first time in a long, long time. In fact, I had felt so ill for so long that I had forgotten what it was like to feel "normal" again. I felt like I was in my 20's. Tons of energy and a positive mental attitude. My bowel movements are now regular without discomfort for the first time in 4 years. I am no longer wheezing/coughing or experiencing shortness of breath, facial flushing, hair loss, or any gastric or abdominal problems. I am hungry again. My stomach is no longer distended or hard, or tender to the touch. I've lost weight, and started exercising, slowly :), again. I no longer have to tape my eyes shut to sleep and my 3-5x daily use of artificial tears has dropped to 1x or 2x a week. My skin color is even and no longer yellow; I don't have that drawn, sunken-eye, ill look. I feel well again. Interestingly, what was thought to be a tumor against my spine and probably inoperable and cancerous, is now about 1/3 its size before I started taking this stuff. Turns out it was an encysted granulomatous nodule, which is, hold on to your lunches, a worm larvae sack embedded in my muscle wall. Holy American Horror Story Batman...!This stuff saved my life. Parasitic infections are not routinely tested for or considered when doctors are presented with the symptoms I had... I didn't consider it myself. So often people are misdiagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or even asthma or a myriad of ocular diseases instead. So if you are struggling like I was just a month or so ago, getting worse all the time, and you don't have a sensitivity to the ingredients in this product, what can it hurt to try it? Just be sure to stick with it and take the recommended dosages (I'll admit I sometimes exceeded them, but then I had a large infestation). And, turns out there are some added & unexpected health benefits... now at week six (and off the stuff again for a week, but about to start and maintain a 2 week monthly regimen), my skin is very healthy looking and soft. It looks 10 years younger. My boyfriend even complimented me on it yesterday (and he's Irish :). In January I started menopause. By February I was having non-stop hot flashes. After taking wormwood for 2 weeks, the hot flashes stopped. My estrogen levels increased again and my period returned. I have read that wormwood, an ancient herb/plant, is known for having this healthful effect on women. Do check with your doctor, but even just as a nutritional supplement its antioxident, antifungal, and antinflammatory properties have been documented. And parasites hate it. This product did/does the job for me, and I hope it helps you too.UPDATE: As of 4-14-2016, I have been taking this product nearly 2 years. I am stronger, healthier, and symptom free more so than I was from when the symptoms began in late 2008 until 2014 when I first underwent the treatment. I no longer have painfully dry eyes. I no longer have migraines. I no longer have painful, rampant diarrhea, gas, and abdominal cramping similar to IBS or Crone's Disease. I no longer have wheezing with rails indicative of asthma. My skin looks great and I no longer have sunken eye sockets with discolored skin. I also no longer have symptoms that cause doctors to suspect I have cancer. The lump that once protruded from my spine is so small you have to feel for it to find it. All this changed after taking this product, and CONTINUING to take it....while greatly REDUCED, the symptoms did not completely go away after the initial treatment. It has been an ongoing process. After the initial treatment, I continued to take the product for 2 weeks out of every month, for about a year. After that I took it for 2 weeks every 2 months, until the present day. In addition I stay away from processed foods, fast foods, and reduced my sweet intake. I've increased my intake of raw vegetables and fruit and rarely eat dairy. A few things have not changed: I still have a compromised immune system and get very sick, very easily (especially during flu season) and it last longer than most other people. I still also get very, very fatigued from time to time. Before the parasites came along (and yes, it is true most MD's discount parasites because it is thought to be a rare condition in the US and testing is unreliable), I did always get sick easily. But it went away after a week. Now if I get the flu it lasts 3 weeks or more. And, honestly, I could sleep forever if allowed, :) I write this because I want everyone who reads this to understand it is not a miracle cure. There are no miracle cures. And you have to stick with this, and modify your diet as mentioned above. It is a natural product so it takes time to heal you. This is not big pharma. This product works. If you stick with it, and eat better, live better and take precautions to not become re-infested (if you do become re-infested, and you are taking this, it will continue to protect you), you will feel better. I truly believe I would have died in 2014 if I had not found this product. That does not mean it is a miracle cure. Nor should people take an extreme approach and do multiple cleanses at the same time. Try something simple like this product, or another, at first. Take it one step at a time. Eat better, and move around more. I promise you will feel better. :) That is my hope for all of you suffering out there...L

This will definitely remain in my cupboard for periodic cleansing. I put it in orange juice and the taste was not bothersome. Used it two weeks in a row. I didn't see any signs of worms during that period but did feel that I lost a little weight and some of my sweet tooth when I was using it. Lost five lbs. that haven come back, though I have no idea if it is related, except it did seem to suppress my appetite when I was taking it. I will try again every other month for awhile and update if there are other changes.

Buy 00 or larger empty capsules to get around the taste. That was the best advise I found in the reviews. I had some already and the 00 size is a dropper full.(The plunger on the dropper only fills so much,like 1/2 way). It is not messy and there is no taste. Only giving a 4 star for bow since I'm just on day 4 with the first 3 days being low dose so I'm not really noticing much except some constipation but I will provide an update when I complete my first cycle.

I have no other problem than to lose some weight. I started taking this so far only half droppers-full 2 times a day . Today is the 3rd day and so far I lost 4 lb. Today I used the restroom for 4 times. I combine this with a fiber diet. I am very satisfied with this product. I don’t taste being bitter or anything but I drink it in orange juice. I am using other products from this brand and all are very efficient. Great job and I am looking forward to find out more new products made by your Family.Thank you!

Now a days I do not know how to feel about reviews because I’m not sure if they are fake, especially if a product has all good reviews. As ironic as it sounds it’s makes me not sure if I should get the product or not if it’s nothing but good reviews. This product had great reviews with pictures so I was like okay that’s good enough proof for me.REVIEW: I was super surprised by this product, I’m not really sure what I was expecting but it was impressive. I took the wormwood drops (one half of a dropper full) before I went to bed. When I woke up the first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was that the floaters that I have had in my eyes my whole adult life and most of my teens were completely gone. I’m not even exaggerating, my eyesight was clear. I have astigmatism so of course I still saw everything blurry but there was no additional spots in my vision that I’ve been so used to seeing all these years. This alone is a good enough reason to buy this stuff in my opinion. If you go to the eye doctor about floaters they tell you that there’s nothing they can do. I don’t know how this product got rid of them but I don’t care, it did. I didn’t know that wormwood could do that. I also noticed that my #2s were more pleasant. It’s like my gut was just happy again. Things were running smoothly if ya know what I mean. I didn’t notice anything weird in the toilet I didn’t see any worms like other people but I did dramatically feel so much better after using this for just a couple days. Another very interesting thing that happened to me is my oil production slowed down tons. ?? I don’t know why. My hair isn’t as oily (I usually have to wash my hair daily) and my skin is almost dry feeling now which is super odd because I’ve always been very very oily. My skin cleared up. I’m on my week break. I accidentally used the product for a little longer than 2 weeks not realizing it. Within these last twoish weeks my skin has cleared up a little. I have adult acne around my jar chin and on my neck. I believe it’s hormonal as I never had acne as a teen. The acne has gotten a little better since I started the wormwood. I think if you’re considering getting this product you should because it will most likely do things for you that you weren’t even expecting, or fix problems you didn’t even know were fixable.I do want to note that I only used this product once a day (you’re supposed to use it twice a day but I kept forgetting to take my second dose) I started out with half a drop and slowly went up to two drops each use. I only did the two drop doses for the last two days because I was unsure how my body would react as I’m very sensitive. Next go round I’ll try two droppers twice a day. If there’s anymore changes I’ll update my review. I in general feel so much better than I did before. Just buy it.
