Cat's Claw - Uña de gato is the most sacred herb among the Ashaninkas, Campo and other Amazonian tribes. According to indigenous Shamans Uña de Gato serves as a bridge and balancer between the two worlds "physical and spiritual"; because they believe that firstly soul becomes ill then the body- the sacred balance/unity is broken, therefore Uña de Gato helps to unify the two.
Cat's Claw is used to treat cancer, HIV, AIDS, urinary track infection & inflammations, arthritis, rheumatism, sciatic nerve spasm, ulcers, and tumors. It is a very potent immune system booster and studies indicate that cat's claw has the ability to protect cancer cells from maturing.
