Rare South American Herbs???!


Question: My brother-in-law has a very rare tumor. He's told us about a South American herb that is very rare and rather expensive. This herb is supposed to help reduce tumors. Does anyone know anything about this or what this herb is called? I have searched the internet and can find nothing at all... Any links or information would be very helpful.

I have a great book on amazon herbs in which several are indicated for tumor reduction or specific cancers. Una de Gato, or Cat's Claw has recieved a lot of attention but there are many others. FROM WIKI:
Some ingredients appear to act as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anticancer agents.[5] As a homeopathic treatment, Cat's Claw is used to treat intestinal ailments such as Crohn's disease, gastric ulcers and tumors, parasites, colitis, gastritis, diverticulitis and leaky bowel syndrome, while manufacturers claim that U. tomentosa can also be used in the treatment of AIDS in combination with AZT, the treatment and prevention of arthritis and rheumatism, diabetes, PMS, chronic fatigue syndrome, prostate conditions,[6] immune modulation,[7] Lyme disease[8] and systemic lupus erythematosus.[9] A 2005 review of the scholarly literature on Cat's Claw indicates there is supporting evidence toward its use in treating cancer, inflammation, viral infection and vascular conditions, and for its use as an immunostimulant, antioxidant, antibacterial and CNS-related agent.[5]

i don't know but i know one berry called lipoti from the philippines that may reduce the tumors .the carica products have that product called q-10.

This is the herbal/supplement on-line offering from Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital, a large well funded cancer hospital in NYC. Look here to see if it is listed:
