cat's claw and essiac: the two don't need to be mixed

don't fall for marketing gimmicks telling you to buy higher priced essiac with added ingredients such as cats claw

Cats claw and Essiac: learn why you don't need to buy Essiac with cat's claw added, and even why it can be detrimental.

Many companies have taken to adding cat's claw to Essiac Tea in an attempt to lure customers and jack up the price. What's the harm, you ask?

It could be worse than you think.

cats claw and essiacAdding cat's claw to essiac tea is not necessary and could mean that you get a fake essiac formula.

Stick to the formula that is rene caisse approved

Your best bet is to stick to the formula Rene Caisse and Dr. Charles Brusch found worked best in their research on the product at the Brusch Medical Research Center from the years of 1959 through 1967. If you order Essiac Tea that has cat's claw added in, you are taking a big risk that you're no longer getting the original formula, since the proportion of each ingredient is unknown. If you would really like to take Cat's Claw on the side, you may. I would not risk getting an Essiac formula with it added to the mix, though.

Essiac Tea's actions in the body are to remove heavy metals, detoxify the body, restore energy levels, and rebuild the immune system. All of these thing act to restore the body to a condition in which it is able to better defeat the illness using its own resources, just as nature intended. Cat's claw is also good for the immune system, but since Essiac Tea already has that covered, using it is redundant in our opinion.

flor essence is another brand of essiac tea that costs more and has the same 8 ingredients

Flor Essence comes in pre-made liquid as well as in powder. It's silly to overpay for the pre-made liquid. Essiac takes just 10 minutes once every two weeks to prepare.
