Essiac Herbal Tea
Experience the original way to prepare Essiac with our Essiac Powder, made from Nurse Rene Caisse’s trusted 4-herb blend. Designed for those who prefer to steep and prepare their tea at home, this formula offers a more hands-on connection to this time-tested tradition.
Together, these ingredients create a powerful herbal remedy designed to support various aspects of health and well-being.
Essiac tea is a carefully crafted blend of four primary herbs, each contributing distinct health benefits. The main ingredients include burdock root, sheep sorrel, slippery elm bark, and Indian rhubarb root. Together, they create a synergistic effect that enhances the overall efficacy of the tea.
Burdock root: Known for its detoxifying properties, burdock root acts as a blood purifier and is rich in antioxidants, which help combat oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting overall health.
Sheep sorrel: Renowned for its high vitamin C content and potential anti-cancer properties, sheep sorrel has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. It supports digestive health, promotes healthy skin, and may aid in detoxification.
Slippery elm bark: This ingredient soothes the digestive tract and provides relief from gastrointestinal issues. Its mucilage content coats and protects mucous membranes, making it beneficial for those with ulcers or inflammatory bowel conditions.
Indian rhubarb root: Adding a gentle laxative effect, Indian rhubarb root promotes regularity and digestive wellness.

Simmer the powder with water, let steep, then refrigerate overnight for optimal potency.
