Cat’s claw (Uncaria tomentosa) The bark and root have been used for centuries in South America as a traditional medicine for many conditions, such as osteoarthritis,  rheumatoid arthritis., inflamation and infections. 

Arthritis relief: Small-scale studies suggest that cat's claw may help ease symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

A study found that people with rheumatoid arthritis who took cat's claw in addition to their regular medication had a reduced number of painful and swollen joints compared to a placebo group

Immune system support: Cat's claw appears to have an immune-modulating effect, meaning it can both stimulate and calm the immune system. Small studies suggest it can increase the number of white blood cells, which are critical for fighting infections.

Gastrointestinal health: Historically, cat's claw has been used for stomach and bowel issues, and some lab studies suggest it can reduce gut inflammation.

Studies have used daily doses of 60 and 100 mg of cat’s claw extract for treating rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis of the knee, respectively (8Trusted Source, 13Trusted Source).
