Does Essiac Tea Have Side Effects?

Are you wondering if Essiac Tea has side effects?

Whenever taking any new products, this is an important question to consider.

The good news is that Essiac Tea has very little in the way of side effects.

One reason is that the product is designed to be a slow, gentle detox - not a quick fix. Because of that, it tends to be very well tolerated.

That said, what are the possible side effects of Essiac Tea?

The only side effect associated with eight herb Essiac is an increased frequency of needing to use the bathroom. This is not uncomfortable for most and you should be able to continue your usual activities. It's part of how the product works - removing things inside that need to come out. Normally this side effect lasts a few days at the longest.

If this side effect is bothersome to you, feel free to build up to the usual dose rather than starting with it right away. Keep in mind that you should not start your count of how long you've been on Essiac until you have built up to the usual dose which is 3 oz. three times a day if you wish to improve your health and 3 oz. twice a day if your goal is maintenance of health.
