Essiac Tea

[LindaMRG]

Hello Friends,

Ive been researching all the websites for Essiac Tea and read the story of Nurse Cassie who founded it. Im confused because the more I read, the more that each website claims they have the correct recipe. I am very interested in purchasing this for my father. Can anyone lead me in the right direction as to where I can get the legitimate product? Thanks so much!

It is my understanding that many health food stores carry essiac tea.

Most all health food stores carry it. I've seen various brand names - most all have the very same ingredients - There is one - Floressence - or some such name - that has a couple of additional ingredients - supposed to have been developed by JFK's physician? or somethig - the additional herbs in it are ones I am very comfortable with -

Sometimes I use the already bottled kind from the health food store. It is pricey, though, so most often, I get the herbs that are dried and combined and make the tea myself on the stove top. I bottle it in the dark jars that the bottled kind came in - I just saved the jars, cleaned and sterilized them and reuse for my own tea -

The ones that are dried and combined - they usually have that at the health food store, also - you use it to make the tea, usually a quart at a time -

And they also make it into a capsule -

If you know of a health food store where you trust the person who runs it - ask them -

If I can help further, feel free to email me -
