Cat's Claw Bark – A Rainforest Herb with Deep Roots

Deep in the Amazon rainforest, a woody vine climbs toward the canopy, its curved thorns resembling the claws of a cat. Cat's Claw (Uncaria tomentosa) has been used for centuries by indigenous peoples of Peru and South America, and today it remains one of the most sought-after botanicals in the herbal world. We carry both the cut & sifted inner bark and powder forms so you can use it the way that works best for you.

About Cat's Claw Inner Bark
