Cat’s Claw (Uncaria tomentosa), or Uña de Gato, is a climbing vine from the Peruvian Amazon. It gains its name from the barbed ‘claws’ with which it climbs the rainforest canopy. Cat’s Claw bark and root have been used by the Asháninka people of the Peruvian Rainforest for at least 2,000 years. Samento is the Asháninka name for Cat’s Claw. In Asháninka religion, Uncaria tomentosa is Savéntaro (powerful plant). In parts of South/Central America, Uncaria tomentosa is called Vilcacora.
Each 1.5ml (30 drops) recommended daily dosage contains: Cat’s Claw full-spectrum alcohol water extract which is the equivalent of 500mg Cat's Claw bark plus 100mg Cat's Claw bark standardized extract powder containing 4% oxindole alkaloids.
Ingredients: Pure Cane Alcohol, Osmotic Water, Cat’s Claw (Uncaria tomentosa) bark full-spectrum extract (minimum dry herb potency ratio 1:3) from Peru, carrier-free Cat’s Claw (Uncaria tomentosa) bark standardized extract containing 4% total oxindole alkaloids from Peru.
Contents: 30 ml
Alcohol content: 55 Vol.%
Food Supplement—Botanical Tincture
Suggested Adult (age 16+ years) Use: 15-30 drops, 2 times daily in 120ml (4 oz.) of water. We recommend starting with a lower dose of 1 drop and titrating up to the 30 drops unless otherwise recommended by your practitioner. Maximum 60 drops per day. Shake well before use.
For children aged from 4 (size/weight to be considered), 3 times daily, give one drop per number of years of age.
The Rio Health range, new in 2020, is a range of 25 tinctures of mainly South American botanicals. Each is a 1:3 tincture using 55% alcohol, provided in glass bottles with calibrated dropper for easy dispensing. Most of the plants are grown in Peru where they are ecologically wildcrafted.
Unlike tablets and capsules which need to be broken down by the digestive system, tinctures absorb readily by the body. No excipients are needed so each tincture contains only water, alcohol and the botanical ingredient(s). Tinctures also readily permit easy titration (increasing of dose slowly upward), which is an important consideration for adults and children alike.
Note that Rio Health tinctures likely can be used at lower dose (number of drops) than some other brands, and are competitively priced.
