Essiac Tea

[Guest guest]

Lisa,

I don't understand why you are taking it 1/2 strength.... but are you taking it diluted with distilled water....if not do... Essiac will help elminate the toxins... I would look into a total body cleanse. Also, do a search in the message archives as there has been much discussion about fibromyalgia. A call to Doc might also be in order.....

If I were you I would buy the Flor Essence rather than another brand

of Essiac - it is the only one I know of that has the 8 original

ingredients of Essiac, rather than just four. Any Essiac tea you buy

be sure it has all eight - Burdock Root, Sheep Sorrel, Slipper Elm,

Turkish Rhubarb, Red Clover, Blessed Thistle, Kelp and Watercress.

And you can make it yourself from those herbs if you wish to as well.

I beg to differ. Essiac Tea did NOT have 8 ingredients originally. Those last 4 have been added a long with stabilizers. It is always better to make it yourself with organic herbs, dark bottles, and stainless steel pots. The process takes about 24 or more hours to do correctly. I did one of the original booklets on the subject back in the 80's. There were only 4 then?!I am not saying the other 4 herbs are bad - they may indeed be good but they were not in the original recipe. Personally, I am always leary of story bought commercially made bottled cures. No wonder they don't work. No offense intended. Just not my experience.Kat <js_kat wrote: , "HAH" <GaiaHemp@e...> wrote: >

Next weekend I am going to update TBM. Dr. Victor Frank who is in his

70s and has lived a lot of the history of alternative health care will

be there. I'll try to remember to ask him if he knows the story on

Essiac. It is from his son, Dr. Randall Frank of Natural Healing that

I first heard of Essiac, and he made a very strong point of telling us

that the energy vial he has in his kit contains the energy of the Flor

Essence, which has the original 8 herbs in it. Considering he does

not sell the Flor Essence, just has the energies from the original tea

in his vial for use in healing work, I see no reason for him to push

the wrong information. And I have used that vial in my work with

great results as well.

General Information

 

Essiac and Flor•Essence are proprietary herbal tea mixtures produced by different manufacturers. Essiac is reported to contain 4 herbs: burdock root (Arctium lappa L.), Indian rhubarb root (Rheum palmatum L., sometimes known as Turkish rhubarb), sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella L.), and the inner bark of slippery elm (Ulmus fulva Michx. [synonym Ulmus rubra]).[1] Reviewed in [2-10] Flor•Essence is reported to contain the same 4 herbs as Essiac, plus 4 potentiating herbs: watercress (Nasturtium officinale R.Br.), blessed thistle (Cnicus benedictus L.), red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), and kelp (Laminaria digitata [Hudson] Lamx.).[11] Reviewed in [2-4,7]

 

The manufacturers of Essiac and Flor•Essence both claim they market the original herbal mixture promoted by the developer.[1,11] Although only one company manufactures Flor•Essence,[11] several companies produce and market Essiac-like products. Reviewed in [2,3,10] This summary contains information about the trademarked mixtures only and differentiates between the 2 products wherever possible.

 

 

 

http://www.cancer.gov/cancerinfo/pdq/cam/essiac

 

Overview

 

Essiac and Flor•Essence are herbal tea mixtures that are sold worldwide as health tonics or herbal dietary supplements (see Question 1).

 

Essiac was first promoted as a cancer treatment in the 1920s. Flor•Essence was developed later (see Question 2).

 

Proponents of Essiac and Flor•Essence say that these products strengthen the immune system, have anti-inflammatory effects, and show anticancer activity (see Question 3).

Not Kat, but from my experience: Sheep Sorrel; Burdock Root; Slippery Elm Bark; Rhubarb Root. In equal amounts. Are the original recipe. Boiled, let stand for 12 hours, reboiled and placed in dark bottles in the refrigerator and used quickly before they get old."Potentiating herbs" added in Flor-Essence are: Watercress, Blessed Thistle, Red Clover and Kelp. Personally, Kelp should NOT be taken by everyone as it depends on your thyroid; whether it is overactive or underactive.

Hi Kat: Sell is the key word here! He sells the extra four flor essences whatever that is? Four was the original recipe. I've been on it for two weeks and already see massive improvement in my stomach that was not healed for years trying other stuff. Plus the detox is coming out of me all of the time using the four formula. My bowels have never felt so good. Before had constant cramps ands gas. Did every known bowel cleanse nothing worked but this tea.now if my Asthma gets better I'll be a cured happy puppy.

I look forward to what you find out. Please share it with me personally if you will.My study of Kelp vs Dulse leads me to not believe it is part of this recipe and Flor Essence does not claim it as part of the original either, in the materials I have... [Canada's Remarkable Unknown Cancer Remedy - The Essiac Report, by Richard Thomas, Published by The Alternative Treatment Information Network, ISBN 0-9639818-0-3]At any rate - just taking these (OR ANY) herbs is a step in the right direction in this toxic chemical doctor world we live in.

http://www.healthrecipes.com/dulse_and_kelp.htm

 

Kelp has a fairly strong flavor and is rich in iodine

and many other minerals. Dulse is similar, but a

little more lettucy, mild in flavor and with less

iodine but plenty of trace minerals. Just a handful of

dulse will provide all the vitamin B-6 you need, 66%

of your vitamin B-12, all your daily required iron and

fluoride, and many other minerals. It’s low in

sodium and high in potassium. Kelp is similar, but

with more than enough iodine for your body to function

properly.

 

I know someone who eats dulce by the handful. She is

Irish. I have wondered if her body craves it because

she needs it.

 

My grandpa used to take kelp. I don't know if he had

any thyroid issues but my dad and one brother were

diagnosed with hypothyroidism.

Not Kat, but from my experience: Sheep Sorrel; Burdock Root; Slippery Elm Bark; Rhubarb Root. In equal amounts. Are the original recipe. Boiled, let stand for 12 hours, reboiled and placed in dark bottles in the refrigerator and used quickly before they get old."Potentiating herbs" added in Flor-Essence are: Watercress, Blessed Thistle, Red Clover and Kelp. Personally, Kelp should NOT be taken by everyone as it depends on your thyroid; whether it is overactive or underactive. Then one should look into Dulce.

How about beer bottles, that is what I used for Colloidal Silver at one time but I haven't figured a way to vacuum seal them.

Does anyone have any ideas for substitute for the dark colored glass bottles? Or has anyone found bottles anywhere for a cheap price?

 

Thanks

I am not sure why it is left to sit for 12 hours and then reboiled and cooled for bottling. I am looking for my original recipe and will post when I find it.As to Kelp and Dulse - see the attachment. Suggest you do a search on the internet for more info - also do a search on Thyroid.I am for alternative natural methods of curing illness BUT I believe doctors are needed to do a proper diagnosis of some health problem. Happily they are getting better training today and are including alternative methods and even herbs in some cases.Hope this helpsStargazer <Stargazer wrote:
