Anyone know of any good sources of cat's claw powder, now that Rainforest Herbs is no longer allowed to make this available?

Sure don't. It's awful that they were forced out of business.

- MRH has always been excellent, in my experience.
Their Cat's Claw powder is very finely ground, consistently through. It mixes with adequate work in a little cool water with a spoon - leave enough room to work with it. Or shake it a small glass jar.
As it's from bark, above ground, you can make into a tea but not with really hot water. All above ground plant parts do best avoiding high heat.
It is bitter, as that's just the way this is. I would not use this as an enjoyable tea but that's not really why it's in my life.
It can take them a couple days to process orders so if you like this and plan to re-order don't wait until you run out.

The best way to take Cats Claw is in an alcohol based tincture on an empty stomach. Powder takes time to digest and is being metabolized during that. Quality tinctures are made at the source using a tincture press and the dried product tends to get stale on a shelf somewhere. The small amount of alcohol in the tinctures helps to expand blood vessels so done in this way it gets in your blood stream quicker.
It also isn't like drinking a glass of lawn rakings.
