- Plaques and Tangles
A relatively new insight is that many conditions associated with a decline in brain function, such as dementia, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's, have a root cause in plaques and tangles, proteins that can accumulate in the brain over time and impair brain function. Cat's claw can reduce the formation of these proteins and even help them decline.
