Added by Kallicharan. Last Edited by Jurbin

Name: Devils claw

Other Names: Harpagophytum procumbens, grapple plant, Wood Spider

Description: Devils claw is a plant native to southern Africa. Other Names of Devils claw are Grapple Plant, Harpagophytum procumbens and Wood Spider. Its name comes from the small hooks on the plant's fruit. The active ingredients in Devils claw are believed to be iridoid glycosides called harpagosides, which are found in the secondary root. Most of the world's supply of devil's claw comes from Namibia, with lesser amounts coming from South Africa and Botswana. Devils claw has been used for thousands of years in Africa for fever, rheumatoid arthritis, skin conditions, and conditions involving the gallbladder, pancreas, stomach and kidneys. In the early 1900's, devil's claw was brought to Europe. Devils claw is used to improve digestion, as the bitter taste of Devils claw tea is thought to stimulate digestive juices.However, the primary use of Devils claw today is for conditions that cause inflammation and pain.
