Essiac 101

What is Essiac? Our Definition.



Are there any side effects?

The only side effect reported from this tea is that some find they need to go to the bathroom more often than usual in the beginning. This usually lasts just a couple of days and is a welcomed event, as there is definitely some buildup of waste in the colon for the people who experience it. This side effect is not diarrhea; it's simply a comfortable increased frequency of bowel movements so do not be alarmed.


The Essiac Ingredients.

what is essiac


Essiac contains the following eight herbs: blessed thistle, burdock root, kelp, sheep sorrel, slippery elm bark, red clover, turkish rhubarb root and watercress. The formula is a synergistic one, meaning that the combination of the herbs in specific ratios creates a different and more powerful result than taking any one of the herbs by itself. 



Many people aren't aware that a product can go by the name "essiac" whether it includes four herbs or eight. Rene Caisse found in her research that the eight herb tea worked better when given orally and that is her final suggestion on which to use.

Why Powdered Herbs Are Best




Powdered herbs make for a more potent brew. This is because there is more surface area on powdered herbs, which better allows the extracts to seep into the tea. Anything in powdered form mixes easier and more thoroughly. Furthermore, our powdered herbs are fine enough that they can and should be consumed along with the tea. If you consume the herb particles in addition to the tea itself (which is only possible when you brew powdered herbs) your body will receive all of the beneficial compounds present in the herbs. We believe so strongly in the powdered form of essiac that we carry only powdered herbs.
