Catsclaw is not only antiviral — it also has anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic and antioxidant properties. These health-promoting attributes may make cat’s claw helpful as a natural treatment for many inflamatory conditions. One study shows that drinking the tea can repair DNA--"The Uncaria tomentosa water extracts (C-Med-100) have been shown to enhance DNA repair, mitogenic response and leukocyte recovery after chemotherapy-induced DNA damage in vivo." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11515717
Ayurveda describes the antirheumatic (antiarthritis) activity of the gum-resins of Frankincense. In addition to its beneficial use for arthritis, this gummy resin is also mentioned in traditional Ayurvedic and Unani texts as an effective remedy for Irritable bowel syndrome, diarrhoea, dysentery, ringworm, , fevers (antipyretic), skin and blood diseases, cardiovascular diseases, mouth sores, bronchitis, asthma, cough, vaginal discharges, hair-loss, jaundice, hemorrhoids, syphilitic diseases, irregular menses and stimulation of liver. It is also diaphoretic, astringent, diuretic and acts both as internal and external stimulant.

We also recommend taking Haba Baraka with this formula of Catsclaw/Frankincense for IBS, unless you have cancer. The Haba Baraka is made with honey which is not good for those with cancerous growths. Catsclaw/Frankincense is beneficial for those with cancer by itself.
