Did You Know... ... that a natural tea called Essiac has been shown to fight cancer and AIDS?
 Essiac's powerful 4-herb formula traces back to an Ojibwe healer in Northern Canada who developed the recipe for use in his healing practice. When he met a woman who was suffering from breast cancer and trying to avoid surgery, the healer entrusted his recipe to her. Within several months, the woman was cured with no surgery.
She had no cancer recurrence until 30 years later, in 1922. That's when she met a nurse named Rene Caisse. When Caisse heard the amazing story, she was overwhelmed by the medicinal power of herbs and went on to dedicate 50 years of her life to curing cancer with a tea she called "Essiac" -- Essiac is Caisse spelled backwards.
Caisse helped hundreds of cancer patients free of charge and her story spiked awareness of herbal medicine around the globe. Since then, thousands of cancer
patients have found relief in Essiac -- while a substantial body of evidence has grown to support its efficacy, much of it from the Brusch Medical Center in Massachusetts.
In 1959 the Brusch Medical Center invited Caisse to treat terminal cancer patients and laboratory mice with Essiac tea while 18 doctors supervised. Three
months later, Essiac had caused an obvious recession of tumor mass in mice.
"Clinically, on patients suffering from pathologically proven cancer, it reduces pain and causes a recession in the growth;
patients have gained weight and shown an improvement in their general health ..... Remarkably beneficial results were obtained even on those cases at the 'end of the road' where it proved to prolong life and the quality of that life." -- Dr. Brusch, director of Brusch Medical Center and physician to John F. Kennedy |
In 1983, Dr. Bruce Hendrick -- Chief of Neurosurgery at the University of Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children -- implored Canada's most powerful health officials to launch a large-scale scientific trial of Essiac based on the remarkable results of a small experiment in which 10 patients with surgically treated tumors of the central nervous system were treated with Essiac. Dr. Hendrick reported that 8
of 10 of these patients "escaped from the conventional methods of therapy including both radiation and chemotherapy."
And recently, the U.S. National Cancer Institute reported that Essiac herbs reduced proliferation of a prostate cancer cell line.
Essiac may also hold promise against AIDS. In 2003, Dr. Gary Glum -- a major proponent of Caisse's work -- reported his experience with 5 of 179 terminal patients through AIDS Project LA. Dr. Glum took his 5 patients off AIDS drugs AZT and DDI and gave them Essiac 3 times daily. Of the original 179 patients, only Dr. Glum's 5 were alive 4 years later.
Essiac tea is also shown to ...
- Promote cellular repair
- Detoxify the body
- Raise oxygen level in tissue cells
- Strengthen immune system
- Nourish and stimulate the brain and nervous system
- Ease nausea and pain
- Destroy parasites in the digestive tract
- Prevent a build up of fatty deposits in the heart, kidney, and liver

What's in the cup?"The Fierce Four" Ingredients of Essiac Tea
Burdock Root -- According to the Journal of Chemotherapy, "Burdock Root contains a proven anti-cancer compound arctigenin, which has been shown in
scientific studies to have marked anti-tumor activity." In other experiments, Burdock slowed or stopped tumor growth and killed fungi and bacteria. Hungarian researchers at the University of Sveged found "considerable anti-tumor activity" in a purified sample of Burdock. And Japanese researchers at Nagoya University isolated a substance in Burdock with unique capabilities to reduce malignant cell mutation. Japanese scientists considered this property so significant they called it the B-factor for Burdock.
Sheep Sorrel Herb -- Caisse isolated this herb as the main agent for stopping
metastasized cancer and reducing tumors. The aloe embodin in Sheep Sorrel also shows significant anti-leukemic activity.
Slippery Elm Bark -- This herb helps with the painful side effects of cancer and its
treatment. Beta-sitosterol and a polysaccharide in Slippery Elm also have anti-cancer activity.
Turkey Rhubarb Root -- This herb has anti-cancer activity, along with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

The Natural Remedy for Insomnia
How to Solve the Problem of Sleeplessness for Good  One-third of all Americans sleep fewer than 7 hours night -- and pay a high price for this sleep deprivation.
Lack of sleep threatens your health, safety and -- believe it or not -- your life. Research shows a higher mortality risk for those sleeping less than 6 or 7 hours a night. Lack of sleep raises mortality risk more than smoking, high blood pressure, or heart disease.
Long-term clinical consequences of too little sleep can be severe ...
- High blood pressure
- Heart attack
- Heart failure
- Stroke
- Obesity
- Depression and other mood disorders
- Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)
- Mental impairment
- Fetal and childhood growth retardation
- Accidents
- Poor quality of life

Why Sleeping Pills are Not the Answer
Sleeping pills are tempting, and are within easy reach -- but drugs have risks, too. Some of the effects of sleeping pills include ...
Burning or tingling in hands, arms, feet, or legs
Changes in appetite
Constipation
Diarrhea
Impaired balance
Headache
Stomach pain or tenderness
Uncontrollable shaking of part of the body
Unusual dreams or nightmares
Weakness
Blurred vision
Chest pain
Parasomnias (behaviors over which you have no control)
Anaphylaxis (acute and potentially deadly allergic reaction)

As for natural remedies, maybe you've tried the "sleep hormone" melatonin and found it worked only sometimes or not at all. But an effective natural alternative does exist. Dr. Al Sears has been an integrative medical doctor for over 20 years, traveling the world looking for the latest in natural therapies. He's written 14 books and speaks as a health expert on radio programs, ABC News and CNN.
Melatonin absolutely does promote healthy sleep, but Dr. Sears recognized that melatonin pills can be ineffective because they function in a very narrow window and often take over an hour to kick in. Now, Dr. Sears and his team have found a
rapid-delivery method for melatonin that solves that problem.
Sleep as a serious health issue first began making headlines several years ago, and since then research has continued to draw associations between sleep and health risks, some of them surprising.
Obesity -- Lack of sleep can make you fat! The less you sleep, the higher the risk. A study of 10,000 people at Columbia University found those who sleep 2 to 4 hours a night were 73% more likely to have an elevated body mass index, and those who sleep 5 hours a night are 50% more likely to carry extra pounds.Diabetes -- Sleep disturbances can lead to the onset of Type II diabetes by tampering with insulin and blood sugar levels, says a study from the University of Chicago.
Heart Disease -- If you sleep 5 or 6 hours a night, you're at significantly higher risk of a coronary event, according to one study at Harvard University.
Cancer -- When you're not sleeping enough, your brain produces less melatonin. Melatonin fights free radicals, and your body can't fight cancer as effectively without it.
Car Accidents -- Did you know that at least 100,000 highway crashes, 71,000 injuries, and 1,550 fatalities each year are caused by fatigue? |
Fatigue from sleep deprivation can trigger a vicious cycle.
As sufferers lie awake worrying about the sleep they're not getting, they have an even harder time falling asleep. First, physical and mental tensions can prevent relaxation. Second, many people find it impossible to stop their thoughts from swirling endlessly -- they can't "turn off their minds."
Dr. Sears accounted for these complex interacting factors when he researched natural sleep remedies used in traditional medicine around the world.
How Jamaican Dogwood and Jujube Fruit Make You Fall Asleep Fast
During a recent trip to Jamaica, Dr. Sears was amazed when he observed a group of fishermen throwing handfuls of crumbled up dried leaves and bark into the water. A few minutes later, fish began floating to the surface -- alive, but so relaxed and docile that the fisherman could simply scoop up their morning catch and head back to shore. Those leaves and bark were from the Jamaican Dogwood, long known by Jamaicans as a safe and natural relaxant.
Dr. Sears's research into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) led hi m to the ideal remedy for people's inability to "shut off" their minds -- the jujube fruit. This unique plant contains substances that relax the hippocampus region of the brain, soothing the mind and calming the emotions. 1
Chinese doctors have long recognized the jujube fruit's curative effects for sleep
disturbances. And The Journal of Ethnopharmacology published a study showing that jujube seed had a sedating quality useful in treating insomnia or anxiety.
Together, these 2 powerful sleep aids and relaxants from the plant and mineral world produce a synergistic formula that ...
Relaxes the hippocampus to soothe the mind and emotions
Boosts melatonin production
Regulates thyroid function
Strengthens your immune system
Protects cells from free radicals
