Testimonials on Cat's Claw Una de gato

Because of a lactose intolerance and an intolerance to progesterone (which I'd taken for 9 years), I'd developed several problems: several quite serious problems! My body was developing calcium nodules in the breasts, kidney stones, toxic build-up of oxalates in the kidneys from lack of calcium, allergy-induced asthma, allergies to many foods, and environmental substances such as cats, dogs, feathers, moulds, mildew, fragrances, etc. My blood pressure fluctuated, food did not empty into the upper colon, rashes developed into a staff infection and it seemed like my auto-immune system no longer existed!

My physician had done numerous tests and continued to treat the side effects through prescriptions which only produced more side effects! Finally in desperation I stopped taking all medications: provera, premarin, dicyclomine, quinine, guiatex, tagamet, uniphylnortriptylin, 800mg ibuphrophen, and 3 oral inhalers for asthma (not to mention the antibiotic and cortico steroids for the staff infection).

I fasted and used the "Edgar Cayce" method of cleaning the system using apple juice for 2 days - then prayed for an answer. In my Herbal Quarterly a day later, I found an article on Cat's Claw. I located a retailer here in Atlanta and started the Cat's Claw Capsules on Sat. evening. by Monday morning, the pain (inflammation) in my right hip had disappeared; the edema in my legs was gone. I felt as though I had energy, enough to make a stab at house cleaning (which I had neglected for several weeks). It's taken 4 weeks to reduce the swelling in my abdomen and stomach; my kidneys no longer hurt. I'm sleeping regularly and soundly; the food allergy reactions are not nearly as severe. My mind is focused and overall I'm feeling closer to "normal" than I have in 9 years. I now have enough energy to go to work again. I have a benign tumour in the cervix, discovered 10 years ago and I'm hoping the will shrink it as well. Needless to say, my GYN and kidney specialist are not pleased with my decision to disregard the chemicals they prescribed, so in future testing I will need to find new doctors. However, I was so near "death", that using an herb was not in the least frightening under the circumstances. My chronic yeast infection is gone too!

I am now taking a complete multiple vitamin and mineral complex, calcium and Cat's Claw, 6 - 500mg daily. start walking again on this coming Monday for my daily exercise and am now prepared mentally to live another 53 years! Hopefully we won't run out of or because of it's health value, become so escalated in price that only the truly wealthy can afford it.

Author of: The Facts About Fats and Recovery from Addiction, has been working with Cat's Claw for about a year. Here is what he has to say: "In these critical times when antibiotics are failing and conventional medicine is reaching its limits, nature is offering wondrous herbs like to strengthen and heal us of our many ills. I have used as an integral part of holistic programs that are having remarkable success against many diseases including cancer, colitis, candida and immune system weakness. I strongly recommend every serious practitioner of the healing arts, as well as every person interested in maintaining optimal health, to explore the invaluable contribution that these herbs offer to us all. After a lifetime of research and practice in this field, I also caution people to be very careful about the quality, species and source of these herbs. Premier quality and correct species are essential to obtain powerful results that I have personally witnessed and that the research gives credence to".
