Recommended use:

CAT’S CLAW is a powerful natural anti-inflammatory and it is a good help in the treatment of certain types of cancer, because its action stimulates the immunologic system, increasing the white corpuscles (leucocytes) production blocking the disease advance. Also recommended to fight arthritic and rheumatic affections, articulation and osteomuscular pains. It is an immune stimulant, antimutagenic, and antioxidant.

CAT´S CLAW has showed to be effective in the treatment tumors, gastritis and some epidemic diseases. The isolation of two important alkaloids (Pteropodina and isopteropodina aloisomeriaca) show together a good cytostatic effect in the immunology process. Consequently they act as anti-inflammatory and allow the use of know cytostatic drugs.

Product description:

CAT’S CLAW is one of Peru’s most important medicinal plants. It grows wild in the highlands of the Amazon rainforest. In the 1º International Congress on this species, sponsored by the World Health Organization (WHO), it was pointed out that no other rainforest plant has ever prompted such worldwide attention since quinine was discovered in the bark of a Peruvian tree in the 17th century.

Peruvian natives of the Amazonian forest, like the Ashaninkas, Campas and Amueshas, have been used this plant for centuries to heal many diseases. CAT`S CLAW has been the focus of nutritional research in several countries throughout the world and there are many scientific studies that confirm the effects mentioned above. For detailed information on its effects, content, among others please ask for our data sheet.

Several alkaloids, quinovic acid glycosides, triterpenes, sterols and many other phytochemical compounds, generating therapeutic effects, have been identified. The anti-inflammatory effect is related to the quinovic acid’s glycosides while the immuno-stimulant effect is more related to the plant’s alkaloids. However, scientific studies mainly conclude that the most interesting effect occurs when there is a combination of all active principles, since they have a synergic effect on the organism.

CAT’S CLAW has been even compared with some known synthetic medicines like indomethacine or ibuprofen and the studied cases indicated greater effects from this plant.
