Disclaimer: This post describes a single individual’s experience with Essiac Tea. It is not medical advice, does not guarantee similar results for others, and should not replace consultation with a licensed healthcare professional. To date, there are no human clinical trials proving that Essiac lowers PSA or treats prostate cancer. What you’re about to read is one person’s experience only. Here is an example of another person's remission of hormone-refractory prostate cancer attributed to Essiac.

You will enjoy reading this story of how a Genuine Essiac customer's PSA number returned to normal limits while he used our Essiac tea. Keep in mind, it's recommended to take the tea as directed for at least six months before assessing benefit.

Background

This gentleman began to experienced more frequent urges to urinate that were bothersome. His primary doctor ran a PSA count in January of 2022. The results appear here.

Because the PSA was high and there were symptoms, he was referred to a urologist.

The Essiac Protocol

While waiting for his urology visit, he began taking Essiac Tea at 3 oz. three times per day. Read this study about the Inhibition of prostate cancer-cell proliferation by Essiac.

In March of 2022, he had his urology appointment.

His urologist started off with a blood test, even though he reported that his symptoms of frequently needing to urinate had lessened. The results of that bloodwork appear below.

The Aftermath

The urologist was really surprised and asked the man what he did in between the two readings, as normally PSA untreated continues to get worse, not better.
The man explained that he had been taking Essiac Tea and shared the website with his doctor.
This doctor was interested to know more about it, as he could not believe the improvement in just 2 months.
The bloodwork was checked once again in September, and the PSA levels were still in a great range.
He was told to simply check his PSA with his primary doctor, and that followup care wouldn't be needed.

Side Effects from Essiac Tea

Essiac tea only has one side effect, and it's not necessarily a side effect but more like a desired effect. Essiac tea may cause increased frequency of needing to use the bathroom, especially in the first week or two. This side effect isn't typically uncomfortable and you should be able to continue your usual activities.

Does Essiac have scientific proof of efficacy?

No, there are no proven benefits of Essiac tea and cancer. PSA can go down for many reasons (inflammation/infection resolution, lab variability, lifestyle changes, etc.), making it scientifically meaningless to attribute the change solely to Essiac.

Is the Essiac Industry Regulated?

There are many various types of Essiac tea on the market, and it's not a regulated industry. Because of that, it's hard to know how one brand compares to another.
We are the only Essiac tea that offers a 6-Month Money Back Guarantee. We hope to help boost your confidence that Genuine Essiac is a great choice when it comes to your Essiac needs.
Because this is a natural product, taste, texture and appearance can vary from batch to batch. However, that should not affect the performance of the product.
Be sure to always choose Essiac tea made from powdered herbs for better absorbabilty, and never purchase Essiac tea in the form of capsules, tea bags or tinctures.

This is simply one man's story, but hopefully it provides you with some inspiration

Hopefully this account will inspire you to incorporate Essiac into your routine if you have received news that your bloodwork is off or your PSA count is high.
Essiac tea provides a full body gentle detox and immune support to allow your body to function just as nature intended.
It doesn't replace medical care and isn't a medical treatment, however.
Always speak to your doctor if you have symptoms of an elevated PSA or have a history of elevated PSA. 📕 See this information for more tips on keeping a healthy prostate.

CONCLUSION

This is an anecdotal account of one man's PSA before and after Essiac tea. His PSA improved after using Essiac for just two months, but that doesn't mean Essiac was the cause. It's recommended to take Essiac tea for six months continuously for best results. If you have an elevated PSA, urinary symptoms, or concerns about prostate cancer, you need a full workup and follow-up with a physician. Essiac should never be used as a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment. PSA can go up and down for many reasons; a drop in PSA after drinking Essiac doesn’t prove Essiac was responsible.
