"X Chalk was developed and formulated with the help and guidance from a Chinese Herbalist. ... other special ingredients we’ve added. One of the main "secret" ingredients in X Chalk is clove. This botanical has long been used for its medicinal properties. Some in the holistic medicine and aroma therapy fields speak of other attributes of clove, such as its mental calming effect as well as other amazing effects that would help a climber...
I do find that the smell of cloves helps me focus and relax on a route or when working through a tough bouldering problem. The otherherbs and botanicals in X Chalk will help heal minor skin abrasions/scratches/cuts and also help protect these from infection."

Meh. If you're climbing granite there'll be plenty of auto-acupuncture.
Save your money.
Have a beer after climbing - that's a herbal remedy, remember.
