Devil's
Claw (Harpagophytum procumbens)
Description
Devils claw has been
used for centuries by Africans because of its ability to heal. Traditionally, the dried
root was made into a tea used to treat indigestion, fevers, and blood disorders, while the
fresh root was used for boils and skin problems.
This herb is believed to
reduce pain and inflammation and is therefore recommended for arthritis.
