User Reviews for devil's club

I have been using devil's club salve for years! it helps my arthritis a great deal as well as my psoriasis. As far as taking it orally, instead of chewing on a tiny piece, Tlingit natives (who found this plant and using it medicinally for decades), break that piece of devil's club and can infuse into water, I recommend adding mint leaf and a squirt of lime juice to make it taste better.

Used it in salve form. I broke out into a rash. Stopped using it.

I took Devil's Club for insulin resistance. I was awed by it's power!Not only did it stabalize my blood sugar levels, but it wiped out my cravings for sweets! I lost 35 lbs in less than 3 months by taking a piece about the size of my pinkie nail and chewing, then swallowing it. Important: I took it no more than 3x a week! The odd thing is after a few months of use, I stopped taking it and had no more blood sugar problems for several years. However, if I found myself having strong cravings for sweets or indulged in those cravings, I'd take a piece and be fine for extended periods of time. When my husband took it (he was not insulin resistant, he said it gave him energy and he "felt good" but not zinged out. A true adaptogen, it gives you what your body needs most!Read More Read Less
