Essiac, A Native Herbal Cancer Remedy

By Cynthia Olsen

I have known about Essiac for many, many years.  I actually attended a workshop with an Ojibway elder who talked about their medicines that had been passed down from generation to generation and how they cured and alleviated symptoms of numerous illnesses.  Part two of this workshop was to make our own brew.  Little did I know, most of the ingredients were similar to those contained in Essiac.  I am now taking Essiac on a daily basis as part of my cancer regime.

This book gives a complete account of the recipe, the doses and of Essiac's uses.  The book tells of experience of patients who have attained relief or regeneration from this remarkable herbal preparation.

Out of respect for this book, the author and the teachings within, I will not post the recipe.

History of Essiac:

In 1922, Rene Caisse, a Canadian nurse, made a discover that would change her life and the course of cancer therapy.  Caisse received the formula for an herbal remedy through a patient who had been successfully treated for breast cancer by a Native American medicine man.  With this remedy, which she called Essiac, Caisse would go on to treat thousands of patients at an incredible recovery rate of 80%.
