User Reviews for devil's claw

Relieved pain level...often in 8 out 10 pain category...possibly bursitis...definitely inflammation rt hip area

just started back on devils claw it helped me before but im on altace a pill for high blood pressure will there be a problem

use devils claw off and on over the years, sometimes in conjunction with feverfew and or kapperest(which is a combo from the naturapath). lot depends on the money flow at the time. has helped when body gets too used to other stuff.

When I first used this I had been in constant pain for a long time. Within 10 minutes, I was pain free, still a little bit stiff, but no pain!

I suffer from Osteoarthritis in my left ankle knees and right hip following a road accident 10 years ago where my left ankle and left femur were broken.Many operations saved my leg but I was left with a slight limp and only a 50 degree bend in my left knee due to scarring etc. I take Panadol regularly and also Glucosamine Sulphate and that really helps in managing the aches and pains but was not helping in the stiffness of my joints particularly in the morning. I tried all sorts of ointments with limited effect and then found this devil's claw herb product. I started taking two capsules a day from three weeks ago and gradually realised that the stiffness in my joints together with most of my aches and pains had to a noticeable degree faded away including a nagging lower back pain. I can now get out and about in my garden and go for quite long walks with newfound flexibility in my joints. I have been able to reduce taking Panadol to occasional use only. Definitely recommend this herb and I think it helps in mental alertness as well.Read More Read Less

I saw a side effect could lower bold sugar and perhaps a drug adjustment. It did. My comment is why are we loading ourselves with dangerous drugs when these natural remedies can help. Shouldn't doctors try these first? Much less expensive...

For over two years I tried everything to help with my low back pain. At age 39 I became completely debilitated by low back/hip pain so severe I was struggling to make it through work where I sit at a computer all day. In spite of stretching routines, trigger point massage, and trying over a dozen different herbal remedies, pain meds, and anti-inflammatory creams, I came home from work every day with golf ball size knots in muscles in my lower back or upper glutes. I could barely function. My sleep was horrible as I woke up in severe pain on a regular basis. My quality of life was horrible. After two years of misery and trying everything, I read about devil's claw on a sciatica home remedies website. I bought a bottle for eight dollars and started taking one pill with each meal. My first day of taking three pills was a week ago. That was the first day I came home from work without huge knots in my upper glutes/lower back. Now, one week later, I have realized how much of my problem was/is muscle-related. I have not had a muscle knot in an entire week. Prior to this herb, I had not had a knot-free day in years. I don't know how it works. I'm just incredibly grateful that it does! It has changed my life. My low back/hip pain is 80% improved. The second day of taking this herb, I bent over and tied my own shoes for the first time in longer than I can remember. I am not 100% cured, but I have so much better quality of life it is incredible! My only side effect was diarrhea the first two days. Once my body adjusted, that stopped. Devil's Claw has changed my life! I just hope that it keeps working!Read More Read Less

i got this product hoping for relief in my joint and headaches .yes i have found my answer yes it has started my mother natures calling but every little thing that thins my blood does . but i deal with this. but know pain yea now to cut back on the oral nsaids meds

I started using an extract with 40% harpagosides (one capsule each night) and the Devil's Claw reduced my pain by 90%. Cheaper Devil's Claw supplements--with less than 40% harpagosides--did not work.

Helps with my back pain

I could barely walk without taking Devil's Claw. Now I have very little joint pain.

I was in the middle of a miscarriage. I made a tea with this plant. Courtesy of the men and women at a church in town. It had calmed my pain and I had a partial miscarriage of my two twin boys. I unfortunately lost one. Yet, I am blessed to have kept the other. I would recommend this to people. It also helped when both of my kidneys were shutting down two years ago. It saved my life. Practical medicines did not help. My kidneys were functioning at only 5% each. Enough to take them on, or put someone on dialysis for. I am only 24 and this has saved my life and my sons life. My son is now three months old. Read More Read Less

Soooooo good

I feel that it was a lot more effective than turmeric, by far. It did upset my stomach a little.

I used as relief of constant ringing in my ears. Worked wonderfully

Brilliant results for me on several occasions to relieve shoulder pain. I used the tincture.

Easy to use and taste very good
