This article comprehensively examines the chemical composition, therapeutic properties, and medical applications of walnut leaves (Juglans regia). The study highlights the significant role of walnut leaves in the prevention and treatment of various diseases in both traditional medicine and modern phytotherapy. Walnut leaves are rich in biologically active compounds, including flavonoids, tannins, essential oils, vitamin C, juglone, and organic acids, which exhibit antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and wound-healing properties. Due to this diverse chemical composition, walnut leaves are widely used in the treatment of skin diseases, purulent wounds, stomatitis, gingivitis, diarrhea, early stages of diabetes mellitus, and parasitic infections. The findings of this study confirm that walnut leaves represent a valuable natural medicinal resource with significant prophylactic and therapeutic potential.
