Notes: It is important to note that there is another Uncaria species that grows in the lowlands of the Peruvian rain forests called Uncaria Guiansis. This name also translates to Cat’s Claw. Although it has some of the same characteristics of Uncaria Tomentosa, it lacks the most active alkaloid, Isopteropodine. Therefore, this species has a less effective action on immune function. Products that may be sold as “Cat’s Claw” can be either species so it’s important to read the label carefully so that you may identify the most effective species.
