Devil’s claw tuber has been found to contain three primary constituents: the iridoid glycosides known as harpagide, harpagoside, and procumbide. These components may be responsible for the herb’s analgesic (pain-relieving) and anti-inflammatory properties, according to French researchers. It also contains bitter substances which stimulate gastric secretions to enhance digestion. Devil’s claw may also possess some astringent, sedative, and lymphatic-stimulant.
