Cat's Claw

[CrunchyMama]

This is one of the herbs my daughter is taking, and I found out it is a critical one. You might remember she is fighting long term Lyme. It turns out that cat's claw is a very good remedy for Lyme. It has other benefits, as well, but this is the one that we are most thankful for!

I have never heard of this one myself but I love learning new things anyways so its fine. What exactly does it do though, do you know the process?

I'm not sure exactly how it helps, but since Lyme is actually a bacteria, it would seem that this has some specific antibacterial properties. Lyme's bacteria is a very resilient one and is difficult to eradicate with standard antibiotics.
