Every year, all over the world, approximately 14 million people are diagnosed with cancer. It’s the number two killer in the United States. This year − just as in every other year − more than half of those 14 million people diagnosed are going to die.
The numbers of survivors in any given year can be misleading… since the cancer may simply claim their life in another calendar year. It is a horribly painful truth.
There’s an ongoing information war between “conventional” cancer treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery) and “alternative” cancer treatments (using foods, herbs, and other natural modalities).
Whatever your thoughts on conventional medicine or your personal choice about following standard medical advice, there are available holistic therapies you can use in conjunction with your current cancer treatment to increase your chances of surviving a brutal and unrelenting disease. Saving lives should be everyone’s goal by any means necessary.
We need to stop fighting so we can stop people from dying.
This is a fight a Canadian nurse understood well. Rene Caisse treated her patients with an inexpensive, natural essiac tea for fifty years – free of charge − and had the support of many renowned scientists, respected doctors, and cancer survivors until her death in 1978.
A mixture originally used by the Canadian Ojibwa tribe, this “tea of life” was recreated by Nurse Caisse and administered to her patients starting in the 1920s. Patients who were told there was no hope by their doctors were able to beat their cancer.
Despite attacks to her reputation, legal trouble for her treating patients without a license, and being dragged into court countless times, Nurse Caisse never stopped helping her patients. The fact she wasn’t charging for her tea is probably the only thing that kept her out of jail.
In 1938, she received more than 55,000 signatures on a petition to allow her to continue giving her tea to patients who were told nothing could be done to treat their disease.
Thousands of people swear by the results they got from this Essiac tea recipe. Meanwhile there were many doctors who called it nothing more than the “placebo effect” in action. When people survive what is considered unsurvivable cancer… we need more of what helped them do that.
Whatever it is, we need more in our lives and the lives of our friends and loved ones.
How Does Essiac Tea Work?
Essiac tea detoxifies the body, attacks cancer cells, and ramps up the immune system with powerful antioxidants. To date, it has proven safe for all but pregnant or nursing women. For best results, buy the ingredients individually and prepare it yourself.
Ingredients in Essiac Tea Recipe:
- 1 ½ pounds cut burdock root (Arctium lappa is a natural blood detoxifier)
- 1 pound powdered sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella is a powerful antioxidant)
- ¼ pound powdered slippery elm (Ulmus fulva is a powerful antioxidant)
- 1 ounce powdered Turkish (Indian) rhubarb root (Rheum pamatum is a phytochemical that is naturally astringent, anti-microbial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory)
Directions to Make Essiac Tea
- Mix all four herbs thoroughly, store in a tightly sealed glass container away from light
- For a quart of tea, you need 1 ounce of herbal blend
- For a gallon of tea, you need 4 ounces of herbal blend
- Bring desired amount of water to a rolling boil in a steel or cast iron pot for 15 minutes
- Cover with a lid, steep at least 12 hours
- The following day, reheat the water but do not boil
- Allow to settle, then strain out herbs (there will be sediment in the bottom)
- Pour into tightly sealed glass or ceramic containers and cool
- Refrigerate and use as recommended (sweetened with honey or natural sugar to taste)
For general health, drink ½ ounce of tea in two ounces of water once daily. Rene Caisse suggested it be taken at bedtime on an empty stomach. To fight disease, gradually increase consumption of Essiac tea to 1 ounce of tea in 2 ounces of water once daily. The tea can be consumed cold or hot and more water can be added for a milder flavor. Nurse Caisse cautioned against drinking more in hopes of better or faster results and to increase water consumption.
There doesn’t have to be an either/or relationship between conventional and alternative practitioners. The first goal, the only goal, should be saving lives. Essiac tea is a natural, well-tolerated holistic treatment… and Nurse Caisse’s patients lived to tell others about it.

Ty – please confirm whether this is safe for brain cancer patients. In all other cancer resources mentioning Essiac tea it has been stated that brain cancers should NOT use this therapy due to risk in any swelling in the brain, as the immune system and essiac kills off the tumor cells, which could lead to very dangerous/severe situations for brain cancer patients (seizures, strokes, aneurysm, etc.). Thank you for all that you do!
I don’t know if this will help, but if there is a brain tumor you should NOT take the tea as when taking Essiac, any tumor may swell before starting to dissipate. This could be risky when a tumor is in the brain as it could block a blood vessel and cause a stroke. I’m not a Dr. but this is what I have read. I’ve done a lot of research on Essiac. It is amazing so many have been helped by these powerful Herbs!
Hello, what about stage four lung cancer , can this the help and if it is the case where can I find the ingredients to make it , I live in Canada , thanks a lot for any reply.
Also do pau d’arco tea. Seems like an essential oil or remedy you could breathe in would be helpful too
Have you looked into enzyme therapy? My son had brain cancer and this is part of his protocol .
Did your soon took eassic tea. What exactly enzyme therapy does for tumor cancer? I’m
New to this
The Essiac Tea being sold in markets or websites are not the real ones. The real Essiac Tea has 8 ingredients and is distributed by http://www.discount-esiac-tea.com. They also help people who cannot afford to buy the tea. They also have a Money-Back Guarantee. They distribute around the world. I am from Canada and I know many friends in the US who had cancer and had been helped by this Essiac tea. Just to mention the organic, non-irradiated, pesticide-free and chemical-free ingredients, Blessed Thistle, Burdock Root, Kelp, Red Clover, Sheep sorrel, Slippery elm bark, Turkish Rhubarb Root and Watercress.
I just want to mention that I was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer 3 years ago and was given approximately 8 months to live. I did not eat solids for 30 days and had only 6 oz of Essiac tea 3x a day and lots of home made organic vegetable juice. After surgery, the OB doctor wanted me to go for radiation and chemotherapy as she said I still have about 4,000-5,000 cancer cells left in my body. I had about 9,000 before surgery. I requested for a cancer test as I did not want to go for chemo or radiation. My OB was kind enough to send me for the test and believe it or not, the cancer was gone. Cancer count was 27. 35 and below is normal here in Canada. My count now is 13. My OB was so surprised and said, whatever I was doing, I should continue doing it and I did with a reduced amount of the tea and juice and eating mostly organic vegetables, fruits and some organic chicken once in a while.
The link doesn’t work. Can you post it again?
try bulk-essiac-tea.com I have been using them for a year now.
I have never heard of a test that tells you how many cancer cell you have in your body. What exactly is that test called. I am a two time breast cancer survivor and I would really like to know exactly which test to ask my doctor to perform. I have kept all my own records and a log of how I was feeling for every day from my first diagnosis in 2005 up to the end of treatment for my second breast cancer which ended in 2011. When ever I asked my oncologist how do I know if the cancer is gone, or how do I know if I am in remission, she simply dipped her head and said we don’t know with certainty. I live in Southern Ontario, Canada and I would like to know this test, my husband was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2012. we would like to know so he can ask for the same test. Thank you for your post. Shared knowledge is a blessing.
Hi Irene,
We have a video clip on our YouTube page where Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy speaks about cancer tests. You may find this helpful. https://youtu.be/ikh0Wn5GfVs
Hi before I start I will stay I’m not an expert in any way shape or form however I do have leukaemia and only recently I had my tests and they said my leukaemia is stable and the way they count the cancer in me personally is by measuring the amount of lymphocytes white blood cells I don’t know the accuracy of it but maybe this will help I wish you well god bless you thank you
Hello thank you for the information. I was wondering though about your diet. When you said juice, does that mean you were juicing organic veggies and fruit daily? Dud you eat anything else other than juice, fruits and veggies? I’m so confused on what a daily healthy diet should contain. Any info would help thx!😁
It is said that a Keto diet is the best for Cancer patients. It cuts out ALL sugar and cancer can’t survive without the sugar. I recently read that MD Anderson is placing their patients on a Keto diet before chemo because (besides lowering the cancer markers) people are able to respond to Chemo better without all the horrific side effects. Too bad Drs put the fear factor in you to get to Chemo ASAP instead of allowing a change of diet, Essiac and dense nutrition.
But I read that it depends on the kind of cancer. Prostate cancer, eg, prefers fats, so those with this cancer fare poorly on. keto diets. Also, if you cut out sugar, cancer will use fat or proteins.
Consider powdered dandelion root (homemade is best, due to processing method) for prostate help. Basically dehydrate the root that has just a bit of dirt left on it until it is dry enough it can be pummeled by a hammer in a cast iron pan and turns a bit powdery. Then continue to pummel it but not to a fine powder. Apparently powdered form is too fine and damages the final product, which means don’t be using a grinder. Be sure to have a very large supply as you don’t want to run out when there is no way to get more.
Not true. Not that the 8 herbs don’t work but the additional four herbs are not in the original tea. The Indians that used it weren’t even near an ocean. I’m allergic to kelp. The four blend is what was used in the end. Mary McPherson was Caisse’s best friend and the only one who knew the recipe, which Caisse allowed her to share the recipe after her death. There is an affidavit showing the true recipe.
And Caisse said if it didn’t have the sheep sorrel ROOT…it isn’t Essiac. I’ve read many books on the subject. Plus, the four herb tea tastes good. The eight herbs does not. (In my opinion) I’ve tried several. It’s a great detox. Mild.
I agree with you. I had also read on another group that the tea must have Sheep sorrel ROOT. The above recipe doesn’t have it.
This also seems to be a good site: https://genuineessiac.com/pages/copy-of-congratulations-youve-found-genuine-essiac?gclid=Cj0KCQjwvIT5BRCqARIsAAwwD-QsgutovOlVNKl0hrp5-bUy6GQASga9-es0Nh4MLQoMhYplvkvAEIcaAljvEALw_wcB
This source is no good. They aren’t honest about their money back guarantee.
The link above is not completely correct. there are two Ses in essiac. So the correct URL is http://www.discount-essiac-tea.com The website is run by Gina and Bryan Paulhus. They give proof on their website that they are connected to Rene Caisse.
According to their website’s home page, the four herb formula is the original and LESS effective version of essiac tea. The 8 herb formula it the newer (1960s) researched and more effective version. Here is the quote which is about 1/3 of the way down the home page sandwiched between the videos of Rene preparing powdered essiac herbs.
“Rene Cassise and Dr. Charles Brusch researched essiac tea from 1959 to 1967 and found that one essiac tea formula consistently outperformed all others. This formula included the original four essiac herbs combined with an additional four herbs that maximized the effectiveness when taken as a tea–using powdered herbs. ”
It doesn’t appear to cost any more for six months of essiac tea than ONE doctor’s visit would cost. Good luck to anyone who needs essiac tea.
We have been useing the original four herb recipie now for 4 years to treat lung and brain cancer, with great success.No conventional treatment what so ever, just essiac tea, a Rife Frequency Machine from Resonant Light Technology and a good healthy diet seems to have cured all the problems.
Also i never let any type of metal near the essiac tea let alone a cast iron pot,the water from the well is colected in glass bottles, then the tea is boiled in glass saucepans and stired with a woden spoon
That’s encouraging friend. I’m battling a glioblastoma right now and am also doing a rife machine/ essiac/supplements/ and diet. I’m hoping for a clean mri in about a week and a half. Nothing is impossible with God!!
Hi, just following up on your MRI back in March. Hope all is well!!!
Well, so . . . does the recipe with only 4 ingredients still work? Is it still effective?
Why only post 1/2 the recipe if there are supposed to be 4 more ingredients?
Strange.
The recipe is fine, just make sure it contains the whole of the sorrel plant, root included. http://www.healthfreedom.info/essiac%20formula.htm
The 4-ingredient tea are sold in bags. I never tried them. The one from Gina and Bryan Paulhus have to be boiled for 10 minutes and stored in refrigerator for about a week or two and in glass containers. They work. Has to be taken 3x a day 6oz or 3 oz depending if you are in maintenance dose or not.
When into the website and there are 3 suppliers, can you advise which is the right one to buy from. Thanks
It is stored in the Fridge in glass containers during the time you are drinking that batch, each batch lasts around 2 weeks. You don’t just put it in the fridge for 2 weeks and then drink it.
Can you make a recommendation for an over active immune response?
Hi Jennifer,
The best advice we can give you for specific medical questions is to consult with one of the doctors we interviewed in our docu-series. We’ve created a page with the experts contact info as it was available to us. Here’s the link to get their info: https://thetruthaboutcancer.com/experts-info-sheet/
there are also capsules of essiac tea available for purchase. are these an effective way to take essiac tea? thx
TEA is the best way. And to brew it yourself! Nurse Caisse never made it in pills or tea bags. Many ways it is made now is for “convenience”, but that is NOT how Nurse Caisse supplied it. She made the TEA! Brew the four herb tea yourself, but only use enamel, glass or stainless steel to brew it in. Why would you do it any other way! It is the way that worked! Marketing or convenience is NOT what to look for!
2001 I was diagnosed with a brain tumor “big as a grapefruit.” My husband had heard about essiac tea, started making me drink an 8 oz. glass twice a day. I did have surgery,chemo, and radiation, but I was never sick and continued to work as a nurse 3 wks a month. today is 3/2/2016 and I’m still here. I really believe in essiac tea, It worked for me, and I strongly recommend it!
Alice
What type brain cancer? Location left or right side
Only the tea is effective. The distributor of essiac tea sells them in bulk direct from the plants. They are organic, pesticide free. chemical free, non-irradiated, fully mixed and blended per exact ratio specified by Rene Caisse and Dr. Charles Brusch. 100% fresh, average inventory turnover once every three weeks— from the Essiac distributor Paulhus family.
hOW DO I GO ABOUT GETTING INTOUCH WITH DISTRIBUTOR PAULHUS FAMILY FOR ESSIAC TEA
If one doesn’t have a cancer diagnosis, would it be smart to drink this tea for a period of time to wipe out any possible cancer (as prevention)? Or only use if a cancer is present?
I would like to know the answer to this question, too!
Nancy, great question! Did you ever get a response? I would also like to know if it’s ok to consume the tea if there is no cancer diagnosis.
Nancy and SC did you get an answer to your question?
I dont have cancer , but I consume essiac tea for a period of 4 years to keep my inmune health in good. Very good, and for these period I dont even have cold o flu seasonal. My skin is very glowing and very nice. Keep me energy and sleep good. So I believe drinking every day is a life changing.
I take Essiac for PREVENTION! It’s always easier to prevent a disease than to cure one! I take it for several months out of the year. It is a powerful detox but gentle. I just don’t want to tax my organs all year long. It’s amazing. I’ve talked to many that have benefited from the tea and still here to give testimonials!
I would like to first let everyone know that I admire your courage to fight cancer of any kind. Even though I am the owner of International Herbs I have also lost both my parents to cancer. If I had know about Essiac in 2000 I would have started my mother on it right away.
I am concerned that there are sites out there that are adding additional herbs and still using the name of Essiac. There are only 4 herbs and has always been that way. I bought the company in 2006 and it was in business 10 years before that.
I encourage everyone to do their homework and find what it best for them. Treating any type of cancer is difficult for both doctor and patient. Do not rely on just one path or treatment. Also, make sure that in trying different things you make sure they will not cancel out your current treatment. Be wary of buying tea that is already made. It has a short shelf life and changes in temperature can cause the tea to be less effective.
When I mix my Essiac I use only organic and natural herbs and mix one full batch at a time (each batch is 15 packages). There are also capsules and Tinctures available for people who cannot make the tea.
Last, to everyone who ordered my me in the past month, I thank you for your business. I pray that everyone who reaches out to this site finds the cure for them and a long and happy life.
Barbara
Where do you purchase your Essiac ?
Iam confused about the amount of Essiac tea to drink. The recipe says for general health drink 1/2 oz of tea with 2 oz of water. If there are 8 oz in a cup, a half oz is like a few tablespoons and 2 oz of water is a 1/4 of a cup. Is that right? It is not like drinking a cup a tea, more like a few mouthfuls of medicine.
I just received 4 Lbs of Essiac tea today, I read the process to make it, but I would prefer to make it one cup at a time.
I ‘m thinking I can Heat up water put put it in a blender, put 1 teaspoon of herbs, mix it and drink it. I’m thinking I will get the same results since I am ingesting the Herbs anyway. Oh ya, I tasted it and I like the taste so adding flavor isnot necessary for me
Please advise
Thank you in advance
J.P.Wood
From everything I’ve learned about essiac it has to be steeped for 10 hours to get the full benefit. Healing light and love.
Jody
That link is not correct – does anyone have the correct one ? Please re-post on Facebook so we can all have it.
Hi Alanna, Which link are you referring to?
Rene Caisse used the Ojibwa recipe of 8 herbs, not four. She used them for years, healing many people, and was forced to work with the ‘established’ medical systems in their attempts to keep this from the public. There are EIGHT herbs, not four. She shared the four herb combination believing that it would be taken and it’s use prevented from being used to heal cancers, and she was right. Look at the sites claiming they cure cancers and their ‘legal’ language ‘supporting’ their claims.
The eight herbs used by the Ojibwa and their healing powers was covered via Canadian public broadcasting by Elaine Alexander in multiple talk shows and was highly publicized. Rene worked with both Dr. Fischer and Dr. Brusch and one can find their interviews if you look. Her 8 herb combination was passed on to a trusted friend and partner who then contacted Flora. Their website is: floressencetea.com The eight herbs and what they do are here:
floressencetea.com/Flor-Essence-dry-tea-blend-2-2-oz-p/2008.htm
If you think about it, for even a MINUTE, you would know there is NO WAY a real cancer cure would be allowed to be marketed and sold over the counter. Every means that is effective against cancer is squashed, withheld, hidden, destroyed or bought by big pharma and special interests. It isn’t allowed. So why would this be different? Because the 4 herb combination is healing but it IS NOT THE ORIGINAL 8 HERBS OF THE OJIBWA CURE.
I looked in the product list and there is no essiac tea for sale
Where do you get these ingredients?
Remind us of the link as to where to purchase issaic tea.
Thanks!!
The 8-ingredient I have been telling you is distributed by a family whom Dr. Charles Brusch taught and gave the formula to. Again, the ingredients are ORGANIC, CHEMICAL-FREE, PESTICIDE-FREE, NON-IRRADIATED, FULLY MIXED & BLENDED PER EXACT RATIO SPECIFIED BY RENEI & DR. CHARLES BRUSCH, & 100% FRESH- average inventory every 3 weeks. ESSIAC comes from Rene’s name CAISSE (inverted). Their toll free number is 1-866 ESSIAC1 (1-866-377-4221). Talk to Brian or Gina. Very kind and helpful. I had stage 4 ovarian cancer & was given 8 months to live. Thank God, it’s been 3 years and am still alive & cancer-free. I got friends all over the world who tried it, too. US, Hawaii, Australia & Canada. They also have 100% money-back guarantee!
Laura, be careful & search completely. To Ruth & Tammy, pls call them toll-free. I am a testimony to what it does, along with changing other stuff like eating habits and eliminating mostly meat & chicken unless you find some organically grown ones. Pls eat mostly vegetables. Pls feel free to e-mail me or text me.Take care.
From all the research I have done , the tea does not cute cancer but it detoxes the body and cleanses the blood helping to build the immune system. Building the immune system by juicing and eating healthy fights the cancer. That is just what I’ve got from the numerous posts and forums I’ve read on.
I am in the search of an all ready mixed organic Essiac tea, can any body give me some information pls.
Dear Team,
Good day!
Unfortunately video suggested below doesn’t mentioned exact test name which is used to determine Steam cancer cells. Or I missed it out? Yes, doctor is talking about the test that there is an opportunity to find even 1 mm steam sells in our body.
Could you please help to find out what is the name of the test and where I can do it?
Thank you very much in advance!
Warm regards,

Hi Alice, great to heard it you are still live. October 2013 when my baby out the next day my eyes can not see it, while in the hospital they found it that i have a brain tumor 4, i did have surgery and after that i got seizure so it take about 3 weeks in the hospital, i did not anything about it so after back home, take chemo and radiation for 2 months, i am still have a problem of my speech. Would u be able to tell me what food vegetable multivitamin tea and etc. I will try take essiac tea, God willing. Thank You
John, According to Ty’s book – he states that the tea must be a “decoction” which “differs from an infusion or extract, which pulls vitamins and volatile oils from soft plant material like leaves and flowers”. A decoction requires boiling and extensive steeping to extract.
Can this be used at the time of chemo therapy? I’ve been told that antioxidants shouldn’t be taken as it counteracts the chemo? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks
Hello I started having pain in upper and lower rib area, I m certain legions again. I’m going in the morning to doctors for treatment infusion and blood work. Then after I will.get radiation treatment for the legions. Have a blessed weekend everybody continue blessings be upon all of you.
Ttina,
The best advice we can give you is to consult with one of the doctors/experts that we interviewed in our Global Quest Series. Here is a link to get their information: https://thetruthaboutcancer.com/experts-info-sheet/
Hello! I was wondering how do I know if buying the best essiac tea out there? Also if I wanted to get ahold of the dr that were on Truth about Cancer, is it hard to contact them? Thx fir your time. Can you email me with answer at penny_em@hotmail.com
The instructions I have seen do not require the tea to be made in a cast iron or steel saucepan; quite the contrary: glass or stainless steel to reduce interactions and contaminations. Enamelled steel is shown being used by Rene Caisse’s elderly assistant on Youtube. She boiled the herbs, covered, on a roiling boil for ten minutes, then took off the heat and allowed to cool overnight before straining and refrigerating. Enamelled cast iron should be OK too. Glass I would have doubts about especially if an induction stove is used; not what Rene used so why introduce unknown variables?
The Florescence Tea sold by Resperin has two added herbs; Red Clover blossom and one other. The Red Clover is excellent even by itself, but not what Rene used. Far cheaper and of course fresher to buy your own herbs and make your own tea.
Despite the lies told online and elsewhere, Essiac is proven effective: it was almost approved as a cancer treatment in Ontario and over two hundred physicians endorsed it based on having referred their patients to Rene Caisse. The “establishment” just managed to defeat that in the legislature just before WWII. See “What Else Could It Be But a Miracle?”, The Globe & Mail, 2003 for more info.
Hoxsey had a similar formula, with similar results and as he titled his book: “You Don’t Have to Die”.
Hello I’m curious about your comment regarding what to make the tea in. How or where does someone buy the ingredients to make the tea and the type of pot you are saying is best? I’m looking to drink this tea to keep cancer away. I had colon cancer stage 3B just over 5 years ago and so scared it will return. I’ve changed my whole diet by staying away from sugars and not eating white bread or any type of processed foods. I try to by organic all the time but it is hard and I do eat out a lot atleast once a day but try to stick to nothing deep fried or gluten. Mostly salads with house dressing made at restaurant. Anyway any info on the tea would be much appreciated. Can you email me at penny_em@hotmail.com as well please. Ps I’m from Ontario too !😁
Hi Penny
Saw your post. Hope you don’t mind my two cent input.
It is very difficult to maintain a very strict diet, that is why I am writing you to hopefully give you more freedom to eat with this suggestion.
You can .take a vitamin B17 daily with a cup of essaic, anywhere from 100 to 500 milligrams and that will allow you more freedom to eat. B-17 has natural arsenic in it which is said to eat cancer , it’s nontoxic. In it’s natural form, and will only go to the cancer site and not harm any other organ. I read. the absence of this vitamin (which is not sold otc) is the reason why we get cancer
Everyone I suggested the tea to with the vitamin became cancer-free without changing. their diet. If you want more info about b17, I refer you to my source, A WORLD WITHOUT CANCER, an excellent read
Hope this was helpful to you.
I am just a lay person who enjoys research for many years but no credentials
If you have any questions, feel free to write.
best wishes
Lee, how and where can you get vitamin B17? Thanks.
Laetril (B17) is not available via stores. You can, however, make your own, It is contained in apricot seeds, cherry pits, etc. The natural world has multiple sources for obtaining it. The FDA has put a restriction on interstate sales of B17 but they have not banned it… yet.
I ordered Apricot seeds from Apricot Power.
So confirm for me what type pot to cook it in?
I am a little unsure of the amounts of tea…..
If we brew a quart or gallon how much of this prepared tea do we drink a day if we are healthy and trying to avoid cancer AND how much do we drink if we have cancer and are working to eradicate it?
I can’t tell if we brew the tea to instructions and then only drink a 1/2 ounce at a time or what.
To make tea use 1 quart of water with 1 oz tea. After you strain it, you’ll have like a cup of concentrate. Put one oz tea with two oz of water then drink
How can this be the original recipe when there is no Sheep Sorrel ROOT in it???
i have done a lot of research on different essiac teas and wonder just like you. from the most reliable source i have read it says it must be sheep sorrel root! lots of these sellers claim to sell the original recipe but contain only sheep sorrel leaves. I am puzzled???
As I website possessor I conceive the subject material here is very wonderful,
appreciate it for your efforts.
Ok I would like to know.. frst.I am a high risk person to get cancer. ..my 3 sisters all died from different cancers ..I want to know can I start this regimen before some one tell me I got cancer
I bought all the herbs shown in this article and followed the instructions. Now I’ve learned that the sheep sorrel must contain the root as well. I saw the hand written letter by Rene Caisse where she stated the root must be included for cancer patients. I cannot find sheep sorrel powder with the root anywhere online. Does anyone here know where I can find the sheep sorrel powder that includes the root?
I take Essiac for PREVENTION! It’s always easier to prevent a disease than to cure one! I take it for several months out of the year. It is a powerful detox but gentle. I just don’t want to tax my organs all year long. It’s amazing. I’ve talked to many that have benefited from the tea and still here to give testimonials!
After the tea is strained there is sludge in the bottom. Are you supposed to stir this up before you measure out your tea portion or just let it stay on the bottom of the container?
It’s better if you mix it up and measure, Andrea. 🙂
Directions say to strain the tea.
You might be better off buying the Essiac tea from Blue Moon Herbs. It has all of the herbs including sheep sorrel root in one bag. They also sell the seeds so you can try to grow your own.
Love this article! Thank you for sharing this Essiac Tea recipe that could fight off cancer. I’ll be sharing this with my family and relatives. I’m sure they will this really helpful!
No one has mentioned the VERY IMPORTANT fact that the water used to brew the tea must be distilled water. City water is chlorinated, well water may contain other contaminates, etc.
Thanks for the tips, Barbara. 🙂
It is, indeed, important to avoid drinking tap water as most countries do use chemicals to “purify” the water.
Using a good filter can help make sure you’re getting the healthiest water possible. A fantastic filter we use is the Echo H2 Water Machine.

Thanks for posting this! I would definitely recommend this to my friends
A great tea and have spoke with many who it has helped/healed. When purchasing the tea always make sure the tea included “Sheep Scorrel root” which Rene Caisse always said was very essential.
This web site really has all of the information I needed about this
subject and didn’t know who to ask.
So pleased I came across this site and many posts here
It just confuses me when people argue just on whether it is the 4 ingredients or 8 and which is the right pan material to use
Also from UK , where do I find the best ingredients but most of all , the root of the sheep sorrel please
Thankyou
Hi Tracy, here is a good site to purchase essiac: https://www.discount-essiac-tea.com/ty-bollinger-the-truth-about-cancer.html. Thank you!
Hey Ty Bollinger. You have shared very helpful information. Curing cancer is tough than we think. Essiac Tea Recipe mentioned by you looks helpful for cancer patients. My friend is a cancer survivor. He won his battle from cancer with a lot of determination. He always says ghee and some natural foods which he ate at the time of treatment helped him in curing cancer easily. Thanks for sharing such an informative post.
Thank you so much for your support of our mission, Johnny. We appreciate hearing from you.
Posted excellent informative content. when I was a kid, I lost my grandma because of cancer. I didn’t know this kind of information. I definitely shared this information with my all friends.
Lee, how and where can you get vitamin B17? Thanks.
Where do you get all those ingredients to make the Essiac tea? I have seen Essiac tea available in my local health food stores in Ottawa, Canada, but not the ingredients to make the tea, but just in supplements and liquid bottles.
Enamelled steel is shown being used by Rene Caisse’s elderly assistant on Youtube. She boiled the herbs, covered, on a roiling boil for ten minutes, then took off the heat and allowed to cool overnight before straining and refrigerating. Enamelled cast iron should be OK too. Glass I would have doubts about especially if an induction stove is used; not what Rene used so why introduce unknown variables? The Florescence Tea sold by Resperin has two added herbs; Red Clover blossom and one other. The Red Clover is excellent even by itself, but not what Rene used. Far cheaper and of course fresher to buy your own herbs and make your own tea. Despite the lies told online and elsewhere, Essiac is proven effective: it was almost approved as a cancer treatment in Ontario and over two hundred physicians endorsed it based on having referred their patients to Rene Caisse.
Great piece of information. Really appreciate your efforts in writing this kind of post
Great information. Thanks for the article
This an amazing post! I never thought that something as simple as Tea can do wonders. I lost a cousin to cancer,had I known about this tea, and the cancer curing and diabetes curing properties, he may still be with us today. I finally learned one of the best kept secrets for Cancer without having to rely on harshful chemicals that in the long run damage even your healthy cells. After reading this post, I am also planning to buy this book on Essiac’s and its magical cure. I do believe drinking this tea and taking a little help of various
Ayurvedic Supplements can boost person’s well being.
nice information
Often I will read a post and think it will be a great post.Thank you so much for sharing. I have found it extremely helpful.
This is an excellent article. Thank you so much for sharing. I have found it extremely helpful.
thanx for giving this information I want this type of knowledge
Amazing effort. I’ll give it a try for sure.
This is a good post shared here. Thanks for sharing.
Interesting one. find it very informative.
Thanks, Bollinger. I wonder how effective this would be for one who has already gone through chemo
Hello thank you for the information. I was wondering though about your diet. When you said juice, does that mean you were juicing organic veggies and fruit daily? Dud you eat anything else other than juice, fruits and veggies? I’m so confused on what a daily healthy diet should contain. Any info would help thx!😁
