DID YOU KNOW?

Dr. Brent Davis, who had become fascinated with Cat’s Claw long before it emerged as a natural health supplement refers to Uncaria tomentosa as "the opener of the way" referring to its unique ability to detoxify the intestinal tract and to treat a variety of stomach and bowel disorders. In 1988, an international congress was held in Lima, Peru to share information on traditional Peruvian therapies. Several physicians lauded Cat’s Claw and one specifically cited his use of the herb to successfully treat 14 types of confirmed cases of cancer in 700 patients between 1984 and 1988.4
