Many years ago a nurse in Canada named Rene Casisse learned of an Objibwa Medicine Man who was treating and curing breast cancer with a selection of herbs. Renee Casisse was skeptical but decided to experiment. After much research she developed Essiac Tea. Her research revealed that all who used her blend via infusion and injection experienced longer life, significant pain reduction. Some people using Essiac Tea went into remission. Nobody exactly what the formula for Essiac Tea was. Rene Casisse took the details of the final formula with her in death. But, we know it contained Burdock, Sheep Sorrel, Slippery Elm, and Turkey Rhubarb. In her book, Breast Cancer? Breast Health! The Wise Woman Way, Susun S. Weed gives one recipe for Essiac Tea, and also a recipe she developed based on what she believe the Objibwa Medicine Man may have used. Here are both recipes: Essiac, Nature's Cancer Cure- recipe from Gary Glum- Taken from page 301 of Breast Cancer? Breast Health! The Wise Woman Way, Susun S.
