Learn How to Eat While Using Essiac Tea

SUMMARY

You don't need to change to a special diet to take Essiac tea other than to be sure to avoid eating 2 hours before you drink Essiac and one hour after drinking Essiac. Eating healthy is a good idea, but not required to use Essiac tea.

Eat Healthy and Your Body Will Tend to Respond Better to Anything

To start with, I want to emphasize that eating healthy is always a good idea! 

• Following a diet low in added sugars and trans fats as well as abundant in organic fruits and vegetables is a great idea and very smart.
• Find good sources of protein and healthy fats to eat and include plant-based protein for more micronutrients and fiber.
• It's all the things grandma told you back in the day 😊

At the same time, take comfort in knowing that we have heard countless success stories from folks who didn't change their diet at all and still had an amazing outcome.

• There is no special diet required when you follow Essiac Tea, other than that you need to take Essiac Tea on an empty stomach.
• Please don't let an inability to change your diet stop you from trying Essiac.
• The other good thing to keep in mind is that, by adding Essiac tea into your regimen, you will automatically include eight plants into your diet each and every day! T

What Do You Mean By Taking Essiac on an Empty Stomach?

In terms of Essiac, this means no food 2 hours before Essiac and no food until 1 hour after you've taken Essiac.

For an example, if you finish lunch at 12pm you could have Essiac if you wanted to at 2pm (that way you would have had lunch 2 hours before), and then you could have a snack at 3pm if you wanted to (which is one hour after your Essiac serving).

Worried you won't get enough to eat?

Don't be! This sample schedule below will show how you can get in three meals and three snacks if you want to and still be taking your Essiac tea on an empty stomach. It will take a little bit of discipline, but it's certainly achievable. Once you settle into a routine, it's a snap. I promise!

Sample Eating Schedule When Using Essiac Tea If You Want to Eat 6 Times a Day

6:30am Wake up, Take Essiac

7:30am Have Breakfast, finish by 8am

10:00am Snack

12:00pm Take Essiac

1:00pm Have Lunch, finish by 1:30pm

3:00pm Snack

5:00pm Have Dinner, finish by 5:30pm

7:30pm Take Essiac

8:30pm Snack

There are a lot of other ways you can break it down, but this is simply a sample of how to eat while taking Essiac on an empty stomach to provide you with an example day. If you don't snack, simply skip them! You can learn more about diet suggestions and Essiac tea by clicking here.

Using an Alarm System Can Help You Eat While Using Essiac

It might be easier if you set an alarm to go off 1 hour after you take Essiac. Once it goes off you can eat again. Then you could set an alart for 2 hours after you complete eating. When it goes off you can take Essiac again. This way, you will be able to follow the guidelines without a second thought. Reminder apps also really help!

What You Can Consume During the "Empty Stomach" Time

• You are permitted to have black coffee, plain tea, herbal tea, supplements, and medications during the "empty stomach" time, as well as as much water as you like.
• You can even add natural fruit and/or vegetable juice to your Essiac if you prefer! None of that affects the results from the tea.
• You can see a full list of what is/isn't allowed to mix with Genuine Essiac by clicking here.

What Happens if I Eat and Take Essiac without Waiting Long Enough? Or if I eat right after I take my Essiac?

• The problem with this is that the food will interfere with your body being able to absorb the Essiac most effectively.
• The herbs need to get into the digestive tract without any food in the way for best results.
• The herbs with the fiber included (since you aren't straining the powdered herbs out) will help scrub the intestines and make sure they are clean of toxins and waste.
• You'll miss out on that if you have eaten.
• However, if you forget to stop eating 2 hours before, go ahead and take the Essiac. It's still better to take it than to not take it. Just try to do a better job remembering the next time.

CONCLUSION

You don't need to make a diet change to take Essiac tea other than to be sure to avoid eating 2 hours before you drink Essiac and one hour after drinking Essiac. Eating healthy is a good idea, but not required to use Essiac tea.
