Does this have the pentacyclic alkaloids? I've read that is important when getting Cat's Claw

I also want to know the answer to this question. to clarify more on the question posed:from https://examine.com/supplements/Uncaria+tomentosa/ :"two chemotypes of the same species exist with seemingly antagonistic alkaloids (either pentacyclic or tetracyclic, the latter suppressing the actions of the former) .... aquire a reliable source that routinely checks the pentacyclic oxindole alkaloid content"

How much do I mix you to my juice or water? It seems that is the way to take it. I have lyme....

It's not going to dissolve into the juice or water, but may work that way. You can get a empty capsules and fill them. I usually just put the cat's claw on my tongue, take a swig of some liquid and mix it with my tongue before swallowing. A 1/4 tsp is 750mg. I'm not sure how much you would take for your lyme. I have family with lyme and know it is part of some treatments, but I'm told it can cause herxing.
