detoxifier, an immune enhancer and effective metabolic balancer. We have had some verbal indication of benefits obtained from using Kombucha alongside Essiac, but no long-term reports as yet. ( See “Resources and Suppliers” section)
VITAMINS C & E:
Some people have reported successfully taking supplements of Vitamin C from 500 — 1000mg daily with 400ius Vitamin E in addition to Essiac. In The Handbook of Antioxidants, 1996, Sharon V. Landvik et al. report:
“Based on cell culture and animal studies, it appears that vitamin E and other antioxidants (i.e. vitamin C and the cartenoids, including beta-carotene) may alter cancer incidence and growth through their action as anticarcinogens, quenching free radicals or reacting with their products...”
SPIRULINA
Described as ‘concentrated green super food’, the blue-green algae Spirulina has a vegetable protein source of 65% — higher than any other natural food. It has one of nature’s highest chlorophyll and beta carotene levels. Spirulina’s total mixed carotenoids (natural antioxidants) equal 0.37%. Its naturally occurring blue protein pigment, phycocyanin, has been suggested as being active in strengthening the body’s resistance to cancer through the lymph system. Easily absorbed by the body, it brings quick recovery from malnutrition and acts as a valuable food supplement in stimulating a return to a normal appetite during recovery from debilitating illness. It should be considered when undertaking a vegan diet to control cancer. ( see “Resources & Supplies”)
Animals
They seem to know what is good for them. Mali’s mother’s 14-year-old Siamese cat sits by the fridge every morning waiting for his 2ml dose of Essiac to be squirted down his throat with a plastic syringe. He was diagnosed with malignant melanoma, found growing as a small, blue-black lump on the back of his neck, in May 1997. He was dosed orally with the formula for four weeks and the tumour was treated topically once daily. It was successfully removed, the cat has continued with his daily dose and there has been no recurrence of the condition.
An old and ailing basset hound was rescued from the street on an icy cold February day in New York in 1995. The veterinarian found one large tumour on his belly, another on his liver and a third on his nose. He said that the dog had only a week to live and nothing more could be done for him. The new owner gave him Essiac and shark cartilage. Within a few weeks the stomach and liver tumours had decreased in size but the one on the nose persisted as an open, running sore which the dog kept scratching. His owner applied the tea as a poultice at bedtime, protective measures were employed to ensure that he could not touch the dressing and the wound began to heal. Four months later he was reported as being much better and very much alive.
A letter from Tigger’s owner, Mr D. M. Canada, in 1994:
“About a year ago, our 14 year old cat Tigger started to lose the fur on her back and hind quarters. She became very unstable on her feet, which now seemed to lack coordination and she could no longer walk in a straight line. As her front legs started moving forward, her rear ones went in other directions.
“About six months later we heard a thump and found Tigger lying on the carpet, unable to get up after falling off her chair. We thought she was having a stroke because she stretched out her legs, rolled her eyes and moaned in pain. Since this occurred in the late evening, nothing could be done about her until the next day. Meanwhile the cat was somehow able to crawl into a secluded place.
“The next morning we were awakened by another thump. I got up, dreading the thought of possibly having to bury our beloved Tigger. I had some considerable trouble finding her where she had crawled under a bed. My wife, who picked up the cat and put her on the kitty litter tray, noticed that her digestive system was still working, so she
