UNA DE GATO / CAT'S NAIL
Food supplement, 60 capsules
Una De Gato / Cat's claw, 60 capsules , is a dietary supplement of the German company El Compra. With a long history dating back to the Inca civilization, cat's claw has been used as a traditional medicine in the Andes to treat inflammation, stomach ulcers, rheumatism, dysentery, intestinal complaints and wounds. The herb is rich in plant chemicals that help reduce inflammatory processes in the body.
The dietary supplement is used for a variety of health conditions, including viral infections (such as herpes, human papillomavirus, and HIV), Alzheimer's disease, cancer, arthritis, digestive disorders, and more.
Cat's claw is a tropical woody liana belonging to the Brochaceae family. The plant clings to the sides of the trees it grows on by using its claw-like spines. Cat's claw grows in the tropical forests of South and Central America. In North America and Europe, two types of cat's claw are commonly used, Uncaria tomentosa and Uncaria guianensis, which have different properties and medicinal uses.
El Compra's nutritional supplement contains Uncaria tomentosa. The inner bark of the plant is used to prepare the herbal mixture, and the origin of the raw material is Central America.
Nutritional information :
The root and bark of cat's claw are made into nutritional supplements in the form of teas, tinctures, capsules or tablets. The herb contains a large amount of beneficial plant chemicals. The composition includes over 30 known ingredients, including alkaloids, along with glycosides, tannins, flavonoids, sterol fractions and other compounds. All of these phytonutrients offer numerous health benefits.
Health benefits :
Multiple studies support the use of cat's claw as a means of improving the symptoms of both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. This effect is believed to be due to a specific strain of cat's claw containing pentacyclic oxindole alkaloids – compounds that are immune system modulators and regulate inflammatory processes in the body.
Scientific research shows that cat's claw can help kill tumor cells in test tubes. Alkaloids in the plant have been found to inhibit the proliferation of human leukemia cells. The extract may be particularly beneficial for patients with advanced stages of cancer, as it improves their quality of life and reduces fatigue. All of this makes cat's claw a potentially effective natural therapy for various types of cancer.
In vivo studies have shown that water-soluble extracts of cat's claw can improve leukocyte recovery after chemotherapy-induced DNA damage. Chemotherapy is a common conventional cancer treatment with many negative side effects, including DNA damage to healthy cells.

Lowers high blood pressure
Studies have found that cat's claw may be useful as a natural remedy for reducing high blood pressure levels. In traditional Chinese medicine, a variety of cat's claw (Uncaria rhynchophylla) is used to lower arterial blood pressure as well as to improve various neurological symptoms.
Cat's claw inhibits platelet aggregation and blood clot formation. This means that the plant can be a means of prevention against the formation of plaques and blood clots in the arteries, heart and brain.
Cat's claw strengthens the immune system by increasing the number of white blood cells. Cat's claw's ability to fight viral infections is linked to the polyphenols in its composition, which act synergistically with quinic acid glycosides.
- It improves the condition of the body in a number of digestive problems
Cat's claw is used to treat a wide range of digestive disorders, including colitis, diverticulitis, gastritis, hemorrhoids, stomach ulcers, and irritable bowel syndrome.
