Sometimes a break is recommended with other herbal teas so that your body doesn't "get used to" it. 

  • It's true that, with some herbal products, your body could overdose on the active ingredient or ingredients if you don't take a break.
  • There are also some products on which you could become dependent on the blend.
  • However, the herbs in Essiac Tea are fine to use long term at the general recommended serving sizes.

Many of the ingredients are in fact found as a normal food in healthy diets, such as watercress and kelp. Every day you don't consume them you are missing out on some great nutrition.

 

 

You may have read some misinformation stating that it's best to take a break from Essiac Tea on other websites, but that doesn't mean it's correct information.

  • We personally have been taking it for over 21 years now and many of our customers are in the same boat.
  • Rene Caisse and Dr. Charles Brusch studied the traditional Essiac formula and described it as a gentle herbal blend. You can learn more about that research here.
