Cats claw powder 100G bag
Cat’s claw, or una de gato (Uncaria tomentosa and Uncaria guianensis) is a popular herbal supplement derived from a tropical vine which can grow up to 30 meters tall. The cat’s claw plant gets its name from its hooked thorns, which resemble the claws of a cat.
This powerful medicinal herb has been used for more than 2000 years by the Amazon Indigenous tribes.
It is found primarily in the Amazon rainforest and other tropical areas of Central and South America.
Cats claw root and bark have been used for centuries in South America to help with inflammation, boost the immune system, as a natural remedy for high blood pressure, and as a diuretic.
Cats claw active constituents are: Triterpenes, glycosides, proanthocyanidins, polyphenols, oxindole alkaloids, stigmasterol, beta-sitosterol and campesterol.
The vine also possesses strong antioxidant properties, helping the body eliminate particles known as free radicals that damage cells.

I use this for inflammation control, as I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. I mix a small amount into my teas, and it absolutely helps the stiffness. I also sometimes put it in fabric tea bags and steep in water that’s come to a rolling boil for at least ten minutes. It definitely requires a lot of honey this way, but it’s effectiveness is just as good, if not better than it is taken dry mixed with tea… I definitely recommend trying this, if you have chronic inflammation.
