About cat&acutes claw extract:
Cat&acutes claw is a vine that grows in Peru. The plant gets its name from pairs of large, curved thorns that grow along the vine.
Functions:
1)Peruvian natives use cat&acutes claw to treat inflammatory diseases like arthritis, to clean out the digestive tract and to treat cancer. It has also been used to treat dysentery, recovery from childbirth, and women&acutes hormone imbalances.
2)In laboratory studies, cat&acutes claw normalizes some immune system functions. It also appears to help reduce blood clotting. We do not know if these laboratory results will carry over to studies in people.
3)There have been some small human studies, including in people with AIDS. The results were inconclusive. In one study, cat&acutes claw speeded the healing of people with herpes simplex virus (cold sores or genital herpes) and herpes zoster virus (shingles). A company that makes a purified version of cat&acutes claw did this study. No independent researchers have gotten similar results.
