A negative story:

There's a story going round and on some Internet sites that advertised plea that the plea Essiac, Ms.. Caisse, a Canadian of Indian spice mixture called a miracle achieved phenomenal effect against cancer would provide. The story is so believable interspersed with huge opposition from government, medical establishment and pharmaceutical industry, that you are in sympathy with the brave Mrs. Caisse almost unnoticed assuming that this means something good means. Almost 100% certainly not so. If you know the story from books and from the Internet from various sources critically follows contains many inconsistencies and internal contradictions and dressed that lady called a miracle herb that many would have healed even by turning them into extremely painful and at its own story-acting injections of it network.
And so many years people have called some healing to remember. Do you believe this? I do not so.

Cheers. CK

Editorial Note:
Quite rightly points out that person: for nutrition and cancer to up an expert and it is always essential to look critically at the results. Even well-meaning doctors. But another visitor, sent us this tip:

Dear John, I'd recommend the book "You do not have to be sick to get better" Paula Bakhuis once read or buy.
.
The information throughout the life story of Rene Caisse in there with years listed. There are statements (testimonials) in ex-patients who (also) using Flor Essence of cancer were cured.
Paula Bakhuis, the writer, has written and researched everything on site.
The book goes from A to Z.
Paula also said that Flor Essence Bakhuis the only real Indian herbal tea is the 8-(4 Essiac herbs is not real).
Regards PR

We also have a site visitor got a web address where more information is available about Essiac and mrs. Caisse. Here is the address of the site of Bracebridge, the city where mrs. Caisse lives and then choose the library, it takes care of itself. www.town.bracebridge.on.ca/

Then, after clicking continue reading.

I've used it 4 months and feel great.
I also feel (personally) that I save with these Indian tea.
That degrades faulty cells is certain.
I've been 35 years-callus nodules with large stones under my feet. (Sorry, but just not tasty story)
I had this 2 times a week cut.
Since my use of these seeds Flor disappeared.

Oh yeah.
It's an alternative. For me: Baat it not hurt to try.
When the father of one of my employees was in January, lung cancer
found with metastases to the breast. This meant chemo.
I have given him Flor Essence. After 4 weeks, his dad again happier because he saw it back down. The hit of chemo. Above: He was two pounds to come. They explain this by Flor Essence

Finally,
As far as I understand it is not harmful to other treatments.

Oh yeah, I buy Flor Essence via Internet in America. Editorial Note: Flor Essence is also available in some health food shops and organic stores in the Netherlands.
