Cats claw – is an anti-inflammatory which is used to treat all types of arthritis because it is rich in plant sterols, chemical compounds that are closely related to steroids. "Arthritis studies have found that the herb reduces swelling by approximately 50 percent". Cats claws is an immune stimulant that has been documented to help treat HIV/AIDS, colds, gastritis, Lyme disease, bowel disorders and peptic ulcer.
In treating cancer "Austrian researchers have confirmed that cat's claw supports a body affected by cancer by stimulating the immune system. This additional immune-system boost allows some people to take the full course of chemotherapy needed to prevent recurrence of the disease. Cat's claw has improved outcomes of chemotherapy for patients with breast cancer, Hodgkin's disease, leukemia, melanoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. As an antioxidant, cat's claw support the body during chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and removes toxic metabolites. A preliminary study in Italy has found that the herb stops mutation of cells in long-term smokers.
The advantage of using cat's claw is that it decreases the total number of macrophages if they are efficient. Cat's Claw increases white blood cell counts if they are below 4,000 but decreases white blood cell counts if they are above 9,000. This process keeps a cadre of supercharged cancer-fighters focused on the tumor, while not stimulating the body to produce more white cells that can damage noncancerous tissues".
