"My mother was diagnosed with
Inflammatory Breast Cancer on
June 23, 2004, she began drinking Essiac tea on June 25th. Due to the late
stage diagnosis (stage IIIb) the doctors recommended she begin chemo right
away.
BEFORE
she had her first chemo, she said it appeared that the tumor was shrinking.
ONE DAY after her first dose-dense chemo the breast specialist agreed that it
looked a bit smaller but did not do an ultrasound.
FIVE days after her first chemo, the
oncologist could barely detect a 3 cm tumor that had been on a lymph node
under her left arm. He looked at me with bug-eyes and said, "Didn't she have
a tumor on this lymph node?" An ultra
sound revealed that it had shrunk to less than 1 cm, in 5 days!
Of
course, both the oncologist and the breast specialist credit an "exceptional"
response to chemo, but I think I know better. My mother did follow through
with 6 rounds of chemo, they wanted her to have eight, but the cancer was
completely gone according to the ultrasound, so my mom refused the last two
treatments. Both tumors were gone in about 3 months. My mother took her
Essiac faithfully, and still takes maintenance dose. I even take it now and
then to clean out my system of toxins, which it is really good for.
I'm
happy to report that my mother is alive and doing well, despite the 6 rounds
of chemo, 28 treatments of radiation, and a modified mastectomy. And I
believe it is due in great part to the herbal effects of Essiac.
On
a sadder note, my cousin's 8 year old daughter was just diagnosed on December
17, 2005 with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. She began drinking Essiac about 1 week
before the chemo began. Her cancer is 70% gone at last check, January 31st,
2006. Her parents are keeping course with the chemo but she is still drinking
Essiac as well. In fact, an oncologist that works at the cancer center agreed
that she should drink it but lessen or even not drink it on the days that she
gets chemo because it will effectively clean the toxins out before they get a
chance to kill the cancer cells. Makes sense to me.
Thanks
for being there. Cancer doesn't scare me anymore."

"Last February (2007) I was diagnosed with
Prostate cancer. I am 55 and this
was the furthest thing from my mind, but after doing a bit of research, it
really shouldn't have been. At this time it is factual that 1 out of 3 men will
be diagnosed with this particular disease. After finding out with having
biopsies done, I did some digging on the internet on just about everything from
cause and effect to treatments. After doing extensive reading, I came to realize
that we are ingesting highly toxic additives, medicines, foods and so on which
accumulate in various parts of the body. We ingest so much that it overwhelms or
bodies defenses and in turn the deposits activate certain cancerous cells
causing an accelerated growth. Many of the toxic ingredients we ingest are known
by the FDA to cause exactly what I have described. I could go into this in a
lengthy speech but not at this time. For my experience, I started taking the tea
shortly after finding out that I had cancer. I had a decision to make, should I
take the tea for the 5 month detoxification and then check the PSA level, or
take it for the two months I had before the treatments started, then check the
PSA level before starting my radiation treatments, (8 1/2 weeks). After talking
it over with my wife, we decided that I should take the treatments, keep on the
detoxification schedule and have the PSA level checked right before treatments
started. After the two months I did have my PSA level checked (on my own accord)
and the level had dropped one whole point to the amazement of both my local
doctor as well as my oncologist. Both asked what I may have changed in my
lifestyle that may have contributed to the latest results. I told them about me
taking the tea. Neither of them had heard about the tea and I could see the
doubts in their face, but proof is in the pudding as they say.
I continued this detoxification
regimen for the recommended 5 months and now I'm back to once daily. I am to get
another PSA test done in a couple of weeks and I think it will be good. I now
have my wife, my son, daughter and her boyfriend taking the tea also. I have
been relaying this sites information as well as my own personal experience to
others. I believe this is an honest product and benefits ones health in today's
chemical saturated environment."
Update:
Yesterday (10/15/07) I had a follow up
session with the doctor which he stated that my PSA level is now at 2.4 which
is good, he said.
I had started at 5.9 in the beginning before
taking the tea.
After 2 months of three times a day it
dropped to 4.9
After 5 months of three times a day and
radiation treatments of 8 1/2 weeks, then 3 months of once a day of the tea,
my PSA went to 2.4.
I expect this trend to continue. I'll always
be taking the tea once a day for the rest of my life. I still use the 4oz to
one gal. of distilled water formula for my daily intake as do others in my
family.

"...my Mother in Sweden
was feeling a lot better when I left, which was a relief for me. She promised to
continue with Essiac, even though she was taking a much smaller dose than
recommended. But she was very skeptical about it, she didn't really believe in
it and she definitely didn't like the taste of it. She was just expecting the
worse at all times, that the tumours would grow and that the cancer would
finally kill her.
On the 22nd of July it was time again for her to go to the hospital to
make a new big examination under anesthetic. But as the doctor couldn't
find anything on the x-ray (like last time) they sent her home again the day
after. On the 22nd in the evening I received a mail from my sister saying
that the doctors couldn't find any tumours!!! Even the blood tests were
good.
This is so FANTASTIC!!! I immediately called my Mom at the hospital to
congratulate her and she was very happy, could hardly believe it's true.
I'd like to thank you very much for your help and advice during
these months since I first wrote to you about my Mother. I'm so happy that I
could get Essiac for my Mom, which I believe has helped her a great deal to get
rid of the cancer.

"I
was diagnosed..as having bi-lateral breast cancer. A double mastectomy was
prescribed because of the..nature of the cancer. I opted to have a
lumpectomy with lymph nodes removed for sampling. There was also cancer
found in the tissue surrounding the nodes. Radiation and chemotherapy were
recommended; I chose not to do either. I began treatment with Essiac, 3
oz, 3 times a day, and the hormone therapy Tamoxifan.
"I
noticed a general improvement in the way I felt overall. ..an AMAS blood
test showed I still had some tumor activity. (a month later), the test was
repeated and came back completely normal. I also had a mammogram..which
showed no sign of tumors.
"I
will continue a maintenance dose of 3 oz of Essiac a day. I have stopped
taking the Tamoxifan because of the unknown long-term side effects. I am
confident the Essiac is what cured me. I hope and pray it will be
available for all those who need it."

head to toe cat scan........final report......A remarkable
recovery....only thing left of tumors is very minor calcification and all
normal tissue in the lymph nodes.....a truly remarkable
situation..........This is my story.....Truly a miracle......Thank you

I
ordered the Essiac from you about four months ago for my mother's
breast cancer. She has received chemotherapy (6 treatments) and has
taken the Essiac faithfully. Her cancer, by all accounts is almost
gone (the tumors). She is getting radiation therapy though also, now
By the way, your
ordering system has seen a nice upgrade since I first ordered. Keep
it going...

"I
have just finished 26 weeks of chemotherapy. During (that) time..I was
also taking Essiac at the rate of (3) 3 ounce portions per day. ..my white
blood cell count stayed within normal range.
The doctors said they had
never seen anyone handle chemo as well as I did. When I told them about
Essiac, they wouldn't even talk about it. On my last blood test and CAT
scan they couldn't find any trace of cancer. I am sure that without Essiac
the outcome would have been different. May God bless you.."

and I have been taking the essiac for about two months now and feel that it
is making a difference in our wellness. My husband is a
Type II
diabetic. He still watches his diet and takes pills as usual, and the last
time he had a doctor's appointment - he came out the "Everything is
Normal" man.
I have
given platelets for cancer patients on a regular basis for many years. To
date, that is over 225 times. The only thing that (caused) me to not to be
able to give blood was the iron count in my blood (it must be at least
38%). My blood count has been good since starting the essiac.
I'm
sure there are more good things, too, but not as noticeable. Thanks so
much for this wonderful "tea".

"We now have two of our 13 year-old greyhounds on essiac.
'Bullet' has out-lived any expectations we ever dreamt of, and his vet is
now (beginning) to have faith in essiac.
"We have now brought 'Goldie', Bullet's litter-mate, to the
vet. She was showing lack of interest in anything...Of course, we
thought she would be put to sleep. When we took her to the vet, he
didn't take x-rays, because she was too weak. When he did a physical
on her, he found she had a tumor so large it had cut off the pulmonary
arteries that sent blood to her hind legs. There was no pulse in
either of her hind legs. Veins had actually re-routed themselves to
get blood to her legs.
"I started her on essiac (2 weeks on the 13th). We have to give
it to her with a baster, 2 times a day, one hour before she eats - and she
can eat!
"She eats more now than ever before! She's much more alert and
wants attention now. That has been a huge turnaround. She has
normal bowel movements, and when she sleeps at night, she sleeps sound
again!
"You (gave) our 'Meagan-Lee' an
extended 2 years, and we lost her to an altogether different cause.
Bullet is two years and going, and now Goldie."

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! Let me tell you our story. Just
before Halloween our beloved family dog, Luke (miniature poodle) who we
have loved for 12 and a half years was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
It came from his anal sack, spread to his liver, spleen, etc. We
consulted a veterinary oncologist. She said at this point not even
chemotherapy would help him. She told us what signs to look for when
the end was near. He was given "a few months". I heard about Essiac
Tea from my boss whose sister was cured of colon cancer after using this
tea. So I searched the net looking for a site that sold it for pets and
I found your site. I have been administering the tea to him for a month
and a half now and he has shown miraculous improvement. When we started
him on the tea he was already showing the signs of the end, no appetite,
straining and yelping when defecating, he could not go up or down
stairs, seemed confused like he forgot how to poop and pee. His stomach
was distended and hard. His tail was tucked under his bottom (For a
poodle that's BAD, we thought it was broken in the down position). One
day he was so sick I called my husband to come home from work because we
didn't think he would survive the day. After two weeks on the tea he
showed little improvements, some increased energy. After 6 weeks now on
the tea he is almost back to normal behavior and energy. His appetite
is back, he runs up and down the stairs, he takes long walks in the
park. No more straining and yelping when he poops. Some loose stools
though. He's barking again (He stopped barking for a month) His stomach
is softer and his tail is UP most of the time! I am going to continue
to give him your tea for the rest of his life. Even if it is not a
total cure, it has definitely given him a good quality of life for the
time he has left, but I'm still confident he will be cured. I'll keep
you posted. Thank you doesn't seem enough for what your tea has given
us. He is our Christmas miracle! May God bless you and your work. You
will get your reward in heaven! Colleen - NJ |
