Essiac Herbal Tea

Essiac Herbal Tea
Essiac tea is one of the favorite alternative medicine for cancer. Essiac was discovered by a Canadian nurse, Rene Caisse (1888-1978), who named it after her name spelled backwards. The recipe is said to be based on a traditional Ojibwa (Native American) remedy. Essiac contains greater burdock root (Arctium lappa), slippery elm inner bark (Ulmus rubra), sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella), and Indian rhubarb root (Rheum officinale). Many users of essiac believe that it does improve the body ability to fight cancer and that is effective at reducing the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. The most common current use of essiac is as a tea. Some people take essiac tea on occasion for general health purposes or for healing of various ailments, not just cancer. Caution is advised when using essiac herbal tea since one of the ingredients - burdock may either lower or raise blood sugar levels.

Essiac Tea is not just for cancer. Many people take it for general health purposes to detoxify their bodies, for healing of various ailments, or to protect themselves from disease. It can also be given to pets safely.
