E-Tea from Nature's Sunshine ProductsA Tonic Tea for Immunity. Benefits: E-Tea is NSP’s easy-to-use, encapsulated form of traditional Essiac Tea. In 1922, Canadian nurse Rene Caisse received a recipe for a special tea from a patient that had consulted an Ojibwa Indian medicine man. The tea helped her maintain her strength and vitality. In 1924 Rene’s aunt was diagnosed with inoperable stomach cancer, and given 6 months to live. Rene made arrangements with a physician she was working with, Dr. R.O. Fisher, and they began giving essiac tea to her aunt. Rene’s aunt lived an additional 21 years, with no recurrence of cancer, just as the lady with breast cancer had done. Dr. Fisher asked Rene to treat some of his terminally ill patients with essiac tea. At that time, essiac tea blend contained 8 herbs. Rene worked further with her essiac tea blend until she refined it down to the four herbs commonly used today. By working with mice with human cancer cells, she tested each essiac tea herb until she was satisfied that she had the most potent essiac tea blend. Its popularity caught on, and eventually thousands were using it. It became known as Essiac tea, Caisse’s name spelled backwards. The ingredients in E-Tea may help support immunity, detoxification of the body and purification of the blood. Sheep sorrel. This herb is viewed as detoxifying because it has pronounced laxative effects and benefits the gastrointestinal tract. Burdock is a cleansing and detoxifying herb. Turkey rhubarb. Some studies suggest that Turkey rhubarb may exert powerful immunosupportive effects, especially with regard to integrity of cellular membranes. Slippery elm is a great help for support of the mucous linings. It can help maintain healthy mucous surfaces while drawing toxins away. Due to the complexity of the preparation process, it would take hours for you to make this tea at home. To make the tea from scratch a 10-hour brewing and steeping process is necessary followed by sediment straining from the liquid and refridgeration to prevent mold growth. Thanks to NSP, it is possible to provide the same herbal combination in convenient capsule form.
