One of the ingredients in my parasite cleanse is Black-Walnut Leaf.
An exerpt from the book that I use quite a bit for reference states this: "Black Walnut Leaf has high tannin content which is primarily responsible for it's ability to expel worms and parasites. Black-Walnut has also been shown to be a specific ingredient for treatment for candida." This is taken from the Pocket Herbal Reference book by Rita Elkins, M.H. Another source I found for looking up herbals is a website at: http://www.globalnutrients.net/herbal_powders_index_blackwalnut.htm
And yes I know that Sugar feeds candida which is why I haven't been taking much of the maple syrup. If I could get away without taking it in the lemonade drinks at all, I would just cut the maple syrup completely out. :)
