Sekoya Harpagophytum (Teufelskralle) | Gegen Arthrose

Harpagophytum, or devil’s claw, is a climbing plant that grows wild in southern Africa. It is traditionally used there to relieve joint pain. Its Latin name, Harpagophytum, roughly translates as ‘plant harpoon’, as its small spurs cling to anything that comes too close. This distinctive feature has also earned it the nickname ‘devil’s claw’.

This dietary supplement contains an extract rich in harpagosides, the active compounds derived from the plant’s tuber. Taking it helps to maintain joint mobility and flexibility. To avoid the risk of hyperacidity, it is recommended not to use it for longer than 30 days. After this, alternate its use with another supplement such as Pernadol or Turmeric & Piperine.
