Essiac Essentials: Rene Caisse's Herbal Cancer Remedy

by Sheila Snow

Essiac is a popular herbal remedy of American origin which has a proven record of helping people with cancer. Essiac is made from blending four effective and commonly available herbs into a tea. The formula originally came from a Native American medicine-man who used it successfully to treat an English woman with breast cancer. Thirty years later this same woman passed on the recipe to Rene Caisse, a Canadian nurse. Rene researched and developed the recipe, giving it the name Essiac (an anagram of her own name) and for fifty-four years used it to treat cancer patients, always refusing to accept any payment. Today, Essiac has an international reputation and is recommended by complementary and medical practitioners, cancer centres and hospices world-wide. 'Essiac Essentials' gives detailed information on how to grow, harvest or obtain the herbs commercially and a simple-to-follow recipe. It also contains case histories of Essiac users, spanning sixty years, including moving testimonies from some of Rene Caisse's original patients. This is the only book which gives reliable information about Rene Caisse's original recipe as verified by Mary McPherson, her close friend and helper for more than forty years.
