Cats Claw is the name of a woody tropical vine from the Amazonian rain forest. The two curved thorns at the base of its leaves resemble the claws of a cat.Cats Claw supplements should be made from Uncaria Tomentosa or U. Guianensis. Other plants have been called Cat's Claw, but it is only these varieties of plant that have the required properties.
If they are not Uncaria Tomentosa or U. Guianensis
then they are not the real thing!
Always ensure that you buy Cats Claw as a standardized extract as this is far more potent.
