POWER
OF CAT'S CLAW
Cat's Claw, also referred to as "Una de gato", is the new North American leader
in important medicinal plants and comes from the South American Peruvian Rainforest. Six
oxindole alkaloids have been isolated in the inner bark of the plant and have been proven
to provide a general boost to the immune system. Other alkaloids and phytochemicals
(glycosides) present in Cat's Claw have been isolated and tested and are shown to provide
pronounced natural anti-inflammatory benefits. As a true adaptogen with almost unlimited
therapeutic applications, Cat's Claw has been called by experts as a "World Class
Herb," a "Miracle Herb" and a "Sacred Herb of the Rainforest."
Health care providers are now using it successfully with their arthritic patients for its
anti-inflammatory and immune-stimulating properties.
The alkaloid content of the Cat's Claw plant varies depending on
quality. It ranges from 0.1% to 1.0% total alkaloids. Most Cat's Claw products contain as
little as only 1 to 5 mg of alkaloids, which are actually bound to tannins. In Cats Claw
bark, the alkaloids and tannins actually form a complex, which is not bioavailable without
an acid to break it apart. The alkaloids contained in Life Plus CataGesic have been
standardized, utilizing a proprietary process to not only contain 4% oxindole alkaloids
but also break apart the alkaloid-tannin complex. Very importantly, this makes the
alkaloids 100% bioavailable. Consequently, a full 8 mg of pure bioavailable oxindole
alkaloids is contained in each CataGesic tablet. This is up to eight times more than other
Cats Claw capsules sold today!
SYNERGISTIC
DYNAMIC RAINFOREST HERBS
The principle rainforest herbs used for their synergistic effects during athletic training
and recovery include Chuchuhuasi, Cat's Claw and Muira Puama because of their natural
anti-arthritic, anti-rheumatic and anti-inflammatory properties. Chuchuhuasi may well
become the next highly important rainforest plant to follow Cat's Claw in the newest
rainforest discoveries. A major pharmaceutical company is developing newly discovered
phytochemicals found in Chuchuhuasi bark, which are highly anti-inflammatory. The
indigenous name of this huge tree translates to "trembling bark", which
describes the indigenous tribes century long use of the Chuchuhuasi for arthritis and
rheumatism and which led modern day researchers to discover its properties.
Suma is another powerful herb, which is by far the most
well-researched. Studies dating back to 1968 reveal that Suma enhanced muscle building
without producing the negative hormonal side effects steroids are noted for. By 1976, Suma
was labeled the "Russian Secret" when supplementation with Suma by the Russian
Olympic team gave them the competitive edge in the 1976 Olympic games. CataGesic contains
a new proprietary standardized extract of Suma, which provides 5% Ecdysterones and
Saponins. These are active ingredients found in Suma, which are thought to provide its
benefits.
Yerba Maté and Muira Puama are strong tonics and nervous system
fortifiers; Maca and Yerba Maté are dynamic energy tonics used throughout the rainforest
to increase stamina and endurance. Sarsaparilla is used to support circulation, clear
toxins and stimulate metabolism, while Iporuru nutritionally supports muscles and joints
as well as provides natural analgesic. Cat's Claw and Sarsaparilla are both known for
their oxygenating properties and Tayuya helps the body remove accumulating lactic acid in
muscle tissue. Tayuya also has well-known analgesic properties, while Suma and Maca have a
natural nutritional muscle building effect.
UNLOCKING
THE SECRETS OF THE RAINFOREST
In addition to supporting athletic performance and recovery, many of the plants in
CataGesic have been used successfully by the indigenous tribes against symptoms of
arthritis and rheumatism for centuries. In addition to the plants being used for their
analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, the added benefits of increased stamina and
energy, plus overall muscle toning and growth, could provide the arthritis sufferer with
many beneficial effects. Many secrets and untold treasures await discovery with the
medicinal plants used by the indigenous people of the rainforest. CataGesic, one of the
great Life Plus RAINFORCE products, provides the ancient rainforest tribal secrets of
improved energy, stamina, endurance and muscle growth as well as the secrets of the
rainforest in the prevention of arthritis.
PRESERVING
THE RAINFOREST
All botanicals contained in CataGesic have been ecologically harvested by indigenous
tribes to protect natural resources of the rainforest and it's people. Education and a new
income source from harvesting sustainable natural resources, like the herbs contained in
CataGesic and all Life Plus Rainforce products, helps provide an alternative to destroying
our valuable rainforests.

USE CATAGESIC
