The phytochemical properties of the Devil’s Claw plant are stored in its bulbous secondary roots that grow from the primary root. In order to make sure the plant does not die during harvest, plant experts must dig holes at the side of the plant to get to the juicy secondary roots and cut them off. Not all the bulbous secondary roots are cut away; this means the plant will still be able to grow more during the next rainy season. The harvested roots are then thoroughly cleaned before being dried straight away. After careful selection each root is cut into small pieces and undergoes toxicology testing for foreign bodies, pollutants and heavy metals. The product is then made ready for shipping. This process adheres to GMP Standards and is quality assured by Indigo Herbs.
