Cat’s Claw (Uncaria tomentosa)

Cat's Claw Herbal Tea

Cat's claw (Uncaria tomentosa) is a very popular medicinal plant in Peru. It is a climbing bush that grows usually supported on a tree, with composite, opposite and oval leaves. Its popular name was inspired by the similarity of its thorns with the cat's nails (in the United States it is known as Cat's claw). It is known that the Incas were the first to take advantage of their active principles and, by passing on their knowledge to the Indians, they left a medicinal wealth used to treat diseases such as arthritis, gastritis, rheumatism and inflammation in general.
