There are several Brazilian plants called catuaba, of different genus and species. Some of which have memory, anti-fatigue effects, anti-nociceptive effects, as well as aphrodisiac effects.

Has anyone ever tried any catuaba products? It doesn't seem to be very common, but could fit in with ND's product line if it's actually effective. ND Staff: have you looked into any catuaba species?

I've been playing around with an extract we got from one of our partners in Brazil, actually. The same goes for mulungu. We are working with one of the Brazilian researchers that has studied both a lot to develop validated analytical methods that we can use to make standardized extracts. There are some really cool things in Brazil, but the science is behind. We are trying to connect the dots between the traditional use and the science aspect.
