Chinese Cat’s Claw Extract (20:1 Concentration) – Uncaria Rhynchophylla

Traditional Uses: Uncaria Rhynchophylla, commonly known as Gou-Teng, is a plant species with a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine. The name “Gou-Teng” translates to “fish hook vine” — a reference to the distinctive hook-like thorns that grow along its branches. It has traditionally been valued as an adaptogenic botanical in both Chinese and Japanese wellness traditions, where it has been incorporated into practices relating to cardiovascular support, neurological comfort, and general head and circulatory wellness.

It is important to note that Chinese Cat’s Claw (Uncaria Rhynchophylla) should not be confused with its Western counterpart, Uncaria Tomentosa (commonly known simply as Cat’s Claw), as they are entirely different plants with distinct properties and traditional applications.

Modern Applications:

While Western Cat’s Claw (Uncaria Tomentosa) is more commonly associated with immune and anti-inflammatory support, the Eastern variety (Uncaria Rhynchophylla) is more widely explored in relation to neurological and cardiovascular wellness. It is frequently incorporated into traditional formulations explored in the context of:

• Head comfort and tension relief
• Cardiovascular and circulatory balance
• Neurological wellness and support

⚠️ Safety Notes
