Description

What is Cat's Claw (Unicaria tomentosa)?

Cat's Claw is a thorny vine which grows wild in the Amazon rainforest (it gets its name from it's claw-like thorns).

The bark of this plant is famous for its use as an "adaptogenic" herb. But what exactly is an adaptogenic herb?

Basically it's a special class of herbs that allow your body to protect itself (to adapt) against the negative effects of stress (physical, mental and emotional). It also assists recovery in those who have become fatigued (after suffering from stress for a long time).

How does it do this? Well Cat's Claw has a unique ability to naturally help bring your body (and your immune system) back into balance after stress disturbs it. This ability makes Cat's Claw a very valuable herb for those looking to maintain a healthy immune system (often during times of increased stress).

The Big Three: Cat's Claw not only helps you maintain a strong immune system. It also contains phytochemicals (tannins and sterols) which are natural anti-inflammatories. On top of that, Cat's Claw is also a source of healthful antioxidants.

It's anti-inflammatory ability helps with the stiffness, pain and swelling that results from joints which just aren't as good as they used to be. And all the antioxidants help fight the damaging effects of free radicals on your cells.

Cat's Claw is one of the most well-known and widely used adaptogenic herbs (for good reason)... and is a long-standing staple of alternative medicine.

Ever since the Inca Civilization, the bark of this plant has been used by the South Americans to help with countless health complaints... and it's now available in a convenient (and potent) extract for you to try.
