" I have been practicing alternative medicine since 1980, when I was diagnosed with gallstones. I was told I needed my gall bladder removed. Thank God, I did not have a blue cross card to plop down on the counter and say take it out. I was forced to seek alternatives. I still have my gall bladder.

Anyway, I have always known about essiac. I have recommended it to many of my patients over the years, but never saw the ‘need’ to take it myself. I didn’t have cancer! Then three weeks ago, another patient came in needing essiac. I didn’t realize that there was as many different formulas out there or that essiac could be used for so many different things. My patient suggested that I make a two-week supply from her order because one of her friends used essiac successfully for bronchitis, which I was fighting at that time.

Two weeks later and I am well. Also, I can truthfully say that I have more energy and feel better, as well as sleep better on essiac. You must realize that these statements are coming from a 60 year-old alternative health practitioner. Until I tried the prescription cough meds to help me sleep last month, I hadn’t taken a prescription in over 25 years. I plan on using essiac for the rest of my life and I am going to recommend that all of my patients use it to detox before any other treatments are started. Thanks again."

"A few years back I was locking a sliding glass door and as I was turning the key my finger hit the frame and almost took my fingernail off. It didn't seem like a big deal so I just wrapped it with a bandaid and went along with my business.

I kept having a problem with my finger because the nail wasn't growing back. A pocket started to form on the nail portion of my finger but I didn't pay too much attention at first. That happened back in 2002. After three years it still had not gone away so in September of 2005 I went to get X-rays of my finger. They told me that it was a nodular melanoma and it had spread up into my arm. They said they would have to amputate my finger in order to keep the cancer from spreading to other parts of my body.
I did decide to go in for an operation but I just had them remove the cancer from my arm. I didn't want them to take my finger off. However, it turned out that they could not get all the cancer and it had started moving up my finger.

After I went home and they continued calling me to come in and have my finger amputated, but I told them I wanted another opinion and I started looking around on the internet for some other options. I decided to have the operation only if all else failed...and then I discovered Essiac.

I ordered some and started it. I noticed that my finger was getting better. I continued putting the doctors off until Dec. 6th 2005 when I went in to see the doctor and explained to him everything that was happening with my finger...it was getting better every day. He saw my finger and smiled and told me to come back in three months, which I did on March 13th 2006.

They took Xrays at that time and told me that the cancer was benign (because doctors don't generally tell you you are cured).

I kept reading about Essiac and found that Rene Caisse (the woman who first found essiac, I learned) had worked with a doctor by the name of Charles Brush in Massachusetts. I learned that he worked with Rene Caisse for 8 years bringing Essiac up to its fullest potency. I also read how he had prostate cancer and cured it with Essiac...that was enough proof for me. I have never been disappointed about my decision [to use Essiac]."

If anyone would like to call me about this I will be more then happy to talk to them."

" Your product is great. The doctor told my 81 year old dad, "The tumors are all gone from your bladdar!" We are still giving him the essiac tea every day. The doctor says, 'The essiac could be (?) helping!' Yeah, I think so!"

" Hi, I am sending you a testimonial (I've never written one before) about my dog, Peanut and her tumor. Here is a picture of her.

Peanut is 16 years old and started developing this growth on her breast last year, in the spring of 2006. She had three growths along her breast, and one of them started to grow very large. I took her to my vet. He examined her said that the tumors should be operated on. After he listened to her heart he said her heart had too bad of a murmur to survive this type of operation...but that he would leave the decision up to me.

I came home and decided to just make her as comfortable as I can until her time came...I did not want put her through a bunch of medical treatments because of age and her heart. At that point a friend of mine told me about Essaic tea. I mixed it with chicken broth and small chucks of chicken and gave it to her. She weight only 24lbs, but I had her on 3oz, 3 times a day for four months.

The tumor really grew very large...it was about the size of a grapefruit. I thoughthought about putting her down, but she really was in no pain. Since I started her on the tea she finally could sleep at night again and it seemed like the tumor didn't bother her. I just thought I would know when it was time to put her down if necessary. But on the fourth month on essiac the tumor opened and this 'stuff' started to drain out of her. It smelled just awful. I have never smelled anything like it before in my life. It was blackish dark fluid with clumps of tissue. It was almost like a mixture of tar and jelly-looking stuff. I'll never forget that smell. Then I thought, 'maybe its time to put her down.' Then I thought that maybe this is what the tea is doing.

The heavy flow went on for 4 days and then it slowed down. It became more of a clear substance and smells clean and fresh now. The wound is almost closed now, and it's all healthy tissue around it. Today it's the 14th day since it opened.

Peanut feels wonderful. She is eating like a pig, running around and barking (not alot of running, but hey, she's 16 years old!) and just being her old self again.

I will be taking Peanut back to my vet soon and telling him about the Essaic. She still has the two small lumps but they have not grown as of yet. And now she lays on her belly while she sleeps, not her side like she did when the tumor was there. But I will keep her on the tea for the rest of life.

I wish I took a picture of the tumor before the essiac, but I thought that if she died I didn't want that to be her last picture. And I don't like taking pictures of sad things. She lost her one eye about 6 years ago. But she's smiling here. I tried to take a picture of her opening where the tumor was but I'm here alone and she wouldn't lay on her side for me so I could take the picture. She lays on her belly now since all the fluid drained out. Before she could only lay on her side. Again thank you for offering this wonderful tea."

Sincerely,
Linda Ward

" 11 years ago I beat cancer of the lower digestive tract using information I had learned about supercharging the immune system, including essiac tea.

At present I am taking the aggressive dose plus. I would like some brochures to give to friends who are interested also. I will see to it that I spread the world about your essiac in Ireland.
I have funded a research foundation that looked into diet and disease, so I can really grasp what your product can do."

" I was diagnosed on January 16, 2002 with terminal peritoneal cancer, stage 3C. An oncologist gave me less than two years to live. I had a total of 58 cycles of chemotherapy, and my cancer only went into remission once, but it came back. Finally, my oncologist said, 'No more chemo' but gave me less than six months to live.

My cancer levels CA-125 were over 1290. I was retaining fluid and needed to have the excess fluid removed every month. The procedure was very painful I was desperate and found this essiac-tea when I was searching 'Google' one day. Now I have been on the essiac for two months. When I started the essiac is when the oncologist gave me just six months to live.

My cancer levels went from 1290 to 700 within two months of drinking the tea. My CT-scan is clean and clear except for one lymph node, which has a cancerous tumor. However, this tumor has decreased from 10mm to 6mm. All in two months! It’s a miracle."

" Before I started using essiac, I received 33 radiation treatments ending on December 18, 2005 and was pronounced in remission by January 2006. However, by August an X-ray I had done showed that the cancer had returned--the tumor was over 3mm. By September the cancer had grown and was now over 6mm.

I started on the Essiac I had bought at the health food store and the next X-ray still showed growth but less than the previous two. About this time I began using the tea and the X-ray taken showed "No discernible difference,"--in other words, the growth had stopped! I am taking the "Agressive" dose right now and am positive that the next X-ray will show even better results."

" Last year I was diagnosed with hepatitis C. After researching and weighing my options, I decided to take no treatment at this time for various reasons. I had been having chronic, daily pain in my right side along my right ribs for several months. I started taking the essiac tea, 3 oz. 3 times a day and almost immediately had total relief of the pain!

Upon beginning the essiac regimen, I eliminated quite a bit of fluid and had minor cold symptoms, but nothing too uncomfortable and the pain has not returned for several weeks so far. Another thing I have noticed is that I am not overeating as I had previously felt compelled to do. The extra food didn't do me any good and now I'm actually eating less and feel satisfied. I feel much better since beginning the essiac and will continue to take it at the aggressive dose for six months."

" I started taking essiac in 1992 for 3rd stage advanced Ovarian cancer. I'm cancer free since 1992!!

While I had cancer I juiced carrots and green drinks 3-5 times a day along with Essiac tea. My doctor was amazed that a 3rd stage advanced cancer patient could even assimilate the juice. When I told him I was also taking Essiac he was quite impressed even though he was in main stream medicine. I know that Essiac is one of the main reasons that I am still alive and marvelously healthy today - 15 years later! I took no other treatments during that time, so I can only attribute it to the essiac."

" I began purchasing essiac tea at a local health food store after reading about it in some cancer testimonials from survivors. I since have ordered and begun using your eight herb essiac tea. I was diagnosed with melanoma in 1999. I had surgery and was told that there was a 99% chance the cancer wouldn't spread. Well, less than a year later a lump in my breast was detected.

I had another surgery and started to look into options at the health food store. I didn't want to live my life going from surgery to surgery and never being sure if the cancer had spread. Well, I've been taking essiac tea since 2003. Knock on wood, I am cancer free and have been since early 2004. I have never felt better in my life, and I sincerely believe it is due to the wonderful tea."

"I started taking essiac tea because my friend (who had been taking essiac for her breast cancer) told me that it could be used as a detox and a general health tea. I had been consuming products made with aspartame for awhile, and started feeling a lack of energy, an increase in pain, increase in weight, and depression. I hoped that taking essiac tea would help my "detox" from aspartame.

It's hard to say how far-reaching the effects of aspartame were, but I have never felt better. It's strange, because my energy levels used to drop in the mid-afternoon and in general I felt lethargic much of the time. After just a few weeks on essiac that has vanished, and I feel better than ever. I've also noticed my skin has cleared up and has a rosy glow to the cheeks that I never had before. I'm sleeping very well and waking up refreshed--and it seems I need less sleep now, but I feel much better all day. I plan on taking essiac for life, and the preventive effect against cancer is a definite plus, as cancer runs in my family. I've been taking two 3-oz. doses per day, about an hour after breakfast and again right before bed.

I tell everyone I know about these essiac testimonials and this wonderful health tonic--I wish I discovered essiac sooner, and cancer runs in my family so this tea has been a godsend."

" I've been suffering from hypothyroidism and hypoglycemia since 1997, which has lead to a 50 pound weight gain (5-10 pounds a year from 1997 to 2004). I'm on premarin right now. I went online to research herbal remedies because I figured I had nothing to lose (but the weight, ha ha). I came across some essiac testimonials from diabetics and people with hypoglycemia. I decided to order some essiac and give it a try.

Now I've been on it for over six months. Looking back, I realize now that I probably had accumulated a lot of toxins that made my thyroid become sluggish. I say this because not only has the weight began to come off without a change in diet (purposefully, anyway) but I've noticed that my skin has become clear, I feel much more energetic, and my constant headaches have disappeared. I seemed to be in pain for something or other almost all of the time. My family thought I was a hypochondriac. I just feel that my body was highly toxic and I was paying the price.

I was diagnosed with lung cancer October 21, 2004. I started chemo and radiation December 5. I was feeling so sick from these treatments through the month of December. It was all I could do to get out of bed. No energy, I felt very depressed. I decided to go with the 6 oz. three times per day of your essiac tea because I am receiving the chemo and radiation. After four days of this regimen I started feeling like I had been before the chemo and radiation...not perfect, but not like I was at death's door, either. I have continued to feel better as the weeks have gone by, and the best news is that the tumor has gone down for the first time as of my last check-up. I will be calling this afternoon to place my order. May God Bless."

" I have had previous experience with essiac tea. I purchased some essiac tea from a friend for my father-in-law about ten years ago. I saw an almost immediate improvement in his health. I can't say for sure what effect it had on his prostate cancer, but it had a positive effect on his psoriasis, diabetes, and asthma for sure. I am convinced the essiac tea helped prolong his life and, perhaps more importantly, improved the quality of his life during his remaining years. He was able to live pain-free much of the time, and that in and of itself was a blessing."

" I started suffering from asthma after repeated bouts of bronchitis in 2003 and 2004. I found myself having to use my inhaler quite often during the day, and eventually experimented with Singulair and Advair. Singulair and Advair worked quite well, although because I don't have insurance I found them to be very expensive.

Someone suggested that I try essiac tea. They gave me a two-week supply to try. I was astounded that my asthma was gone three days later! I've been taking 3 oz. per dose, 3 times per day. I noticed other health benefits as well, so I plan to continue essiac tea. Recently everyone got sick around here, and I did as well, but I got better in two days whereas everyone else, it seemed to take them two weeks.

My husband suffers from asthma to a greater degree than I ever did, and I suggested that he try essiac tea. To his pleasant surprise, he took it during an acute attack and his breathing increased from about 20% capacity to almost 100%, almost instantly. He has tried many asthma treatments including steroid packs and Prednisone. Those treatments are hard on his system and he's glad he doesn't have to rely on them anymore. Thank you so much for offering essiac tea at such a great price. We're telling everyone we know about the wonderful effects of health and well-being we've seen from essiac tea."

" I'd like to order another supply of essiac tea. I have been giving it to my sister (with breast cancer) and my father (diabetes) so I'm already running low. Since my first diagnosis, my ovarian tumor has shrunk 60% and the doctor can't believe it. I am on chemo as well and I'm not sure if the chemo or the essiac is doing the trick, but I'm not going to take any chances. I believe in alternative treatments very much, so I'm partial to attribute my progress to the essiac, but whatever it is I am grateful. I am also thankful to have the chance to read essiac tea testimonials from others who are doing well, it gives me hope."

" Essiac tea is amazing. Let me tell you about my mother who has (or had) colon cancer. She is elderly and the doctors warned that she might not survive an operation to try and remove the tumors. We agreed that we would rather have her enjoy her last years as much as possible, living with us etc. rather than be in a hospital trying to recover from invasive surgery. We were on the fence about chemo but decided against it for the time being.

We began giving her essiac tea last November, and we noticed that she seemed happier and more energetic almost right away. However, it wasn't until February that we noticed some dark substance coming from her colon. At first it seemed to be stuck to her skin but after a few days it began falling off on its own while she was bathing. When we went back for testing the doctors said the tumors seemed to be gone. Amazing. My mother continues to take essiac at maintenance dose, and actually the whole family is on it now because cancer runs in our family. Essiac is truly heaven-sent. Please add my account to your cancer testimonials page so that others will know how well it has worked for us."

" I've been helping care for my aunt for the past three years. Soon after I took her in they discovered rectal cancer. After debating our options we decided to start chemo and radiation. However, we weren't satisfied to stop with that. I was interested in alternative treatments but I didn't want to go with just anything. My priest recommended essiac tea and of course, prayer and faith. Which we had always kept a part of our lives.

We started with a four-herb essiac, I think it was affiliated with a company called "resperin." I started telling my friends and family that my aunt was taking essiac tea and a couple of people suggested that I try to obtain eight-herb essiac. I found eight-herb essiac a couple of months later (I had her on the four-herb formula for about eight months). She was already starting to show an improvement. Mind you, she was taking chemo and radiation as well, and also cat's claw and a bunch of "antioxidant" vitamins. All we knew was that something was working.

My aunt's last CAT scan showed that she was normal: no cancer anywhere in sight! We were so relieved. It's so scary to not know what is happening or what you can do. We dropped her back to 4 oz. twice per day; we had been doing three times per day. Now I am told we can drop back further so we will probably do that after her next check-up. Or, we might keep her on twice per day, who wants to mess with what works. We thank God every day for whatever miracle saved my aunt."
