Fight Cancer With Essiac Tea


Defined Tag: Essiac Tea.

Essiac tea is said by some to have great cancer fighting properties and in fact, this tea is actually named after the the nurse who invented it when her name (Cassie) was spelled backwards is a name for this tea. Essiac tea is not made from a traditional tea leaf but from a blend of roots and herbs like sheep Sorrel, Indian or Turkish rhubarb root, burdock root, and the inner bark of slippery Elm.  All the use herbs are said to have properties that prevent cancer.  While some studies support this, other experts dispute it.

Essiac tea is usually made in large batches and then stored in cold storage.  To drink the concoction, distilled water is heated up and mixed with parts of the Essiac tea. The tea is recommended for drinking on an empty stomach at night, most ideally, two hours after eating. In comparison, the tea is more like a supplemental drink or concoction and is very different from the common teas or herbal tea infusions.

Essiac tea is a natural drink with no preservatives and in making this tea most important thing is to use the correct kind of sheep Sorrel.  Don't use the sheep Sorrel but you put in salads as this will produce a weak tea.  The best type uses the wild type which has the most medicinal benefits.
 Drinking the resulting concoction is a waste of time and is claimed to have little medical benefits. Potential drinkers can differentiate the wrong Sheep Sorrel with its large leaves while the wild type, which is the right herb, and has tiny leaves.
