I guess I may need to try tulsi next, as the reaction I am getting to cat's claw is too strong. I need to stop the cat's claw, at least for a while.

Cinnamon is great stuff. It tastes great, fights microbes, and helps stabilize blood sugar.

Garlic is also great. I have trouble tolerating the raw stuff at times, so I often use garlic powder instead which is milder(but also much less healing). I guess I should try substituting raw garlic for the cat's claw.

Ginger is great to combat digestive problems, although I don't like the taste of it.

I used St. John's Wort extensively years ago, until it starting giving me great side effects. As a mood booster, I think licorice root is a better choice.

Tumeric is great. It is a pity that it isn't that easy to find it separately inexpensively, and I usually buy curry powder instead. Curry powder has turmeric,coriander, cumin, and perhaps other spices.
