  schema:description "Cat's claw is a South American vine bark sold as an immune and joint tonic and sometimes for cancer. Two small studies in people with cancer reported fewer chemotherapy side effects and better quality of life, but a laboratory study found it helped childhood leukaemia cells survive. It raises levels of some HIV drugs and may add to blood thinners."@en ;
