About Nature’s Sunshine Cat’s Claw Combination (Una De Gato)
Deep in the Amazon rainforest of Peru grows a remarkable climbing vine known as Cat’s Claw, or “Uña de Gato” in Spanish. This woody vine gets its distinctive name from the small, curved thorns that resemble a cat’s claws growing along its stem. For over 2,000 years, indigenous peoples of Central and South America have treasured this plant for its traditional uses in supporting wellness and vitality.
Nature’s Sunshine Cat’s Claw Combination brings together three powerful herbs from different corners of the world, each with its own rich history of traditional use. This thoughtfully crafted formula combines the wisdom of Amazonian, Asian, and Native American herbal traditions into one comprehensive supplement designed to support your body’s natural defenses.
The Power of Cat’s Claw from the Amazon
The primary ingredient, Cat’s Claw inner bark (Uncaria tomentosa), provides 300mg per capsule of this prized rainforest herb. Traditional uses by the Ashaninka Indians and other indigenous groups have centered around supporting the body’s natural resistance and promoting overall wellness. Modern research has identified various compounds in Cat’s Claw, including oxindole alkaloids, that contribute to its traditional reputation.
Ancient Wisdom of Astragalus Root
Complementing the Cat’s Claw is Astragalus root (Astragalus membranaceus), contributing 121mg per capsule. Known in Traditional Chinese Medicine as “huang qi” or “yellow leader,” this adaptogenic root has been valued for more than 2,000 years. Astragalus is considered one of the 50 fundamental herbs in Chinese herbalism, traditionally used to support energy and the body’s natural defenses. Nature’s Sunshine sources their Astragalus from the cool climate regions of north central China, where the long, straight roots are carefully harvested after two to three years to ensure optimal quality.
The formula is completed with 25mg of Echinacea purpurea root, a Native American traditional herb that has been embraced by modern herbalists worldwide. Centuries ago, Native Americans turned to Echinacea for various wellness applications, and today it remains one of the most recognized herbs for supporting the body’s natural immune responses.

Each capsule contains 446mg of this carefully balanced proprietary blend, designed to work synergistically. The combination approach allows you to experience the benefits of multiple traditional herbal systems in one convenient supplement.
