What it is
About Devil's Claw
Devil's claw gets its name from its fruit, which is covered in small hooks. The plant grows in the dry Kalahari regions of Namibia, Botswana and South Africa.
Local people have used the dried root as a comfort herb for generations. It reached Europe in the early 1900s and has been sold as a supplement ingredient since then.
In VidaCalm it appears in the balance herbs family with hawthorn and ashwagandha. It is the most unusual plant in the list, and a good talking point.
