5 gallon stainless steel pot, with lid.
3 gallon stainless steel pot.
Stainless steel fine-mesh double strainer.
Stainless steel funnel.
Stainless steel spatula.
12 or more 16-ounce amber glass bottles with airtight caps (not childproof
caps).
2 gallons vortex energised living water.
Kitchen scale with ounce measurements.
Measuring Cup
6.5 cups of burdock root - cut. (Arctium Lappa)
16 oz. Sheep Sorrel Herb - powdered. (Rumex Acetocella)
1 oz. Turkey Rhubarb Root - powdered. (Rheum Palmatum)
4 oz. Slippery Elm Bark - powdered. (Ulmus Fulve)
- Mix Essiac Formula thoroughly.
- Bring vortex energised living water
to a rolling boil in 5-gallon pot with lid on. (Approximately 30 minutes
at sea level.)
- Stir in 1 cup of Essiac Formula.
Replace lid and continue boiling for 10 minutes.
- Turn off stove. Scrape down sides
of pot with spatula and stir mixture thoroughly. Replace lid.
- Allow pot to remain closed for 12
hours; then turn stove to full heat for 20 minutes.
- Turn off stove. Strain liquid
into 3-gallon pot, and clean 5-gallon pot and strainer. Then strain
filtered liquid back into 5-gallon pot.
- Use funnel to pour hot liquid
into bottles immediately, taking care to tighten caps. Allow bottles to
cool; then tighten caps again.
- Refrigerate. Essiac contains no
preservative agents. If mould should develop in bottle, discard
immediately.
Caution:
All bottles and caps must be sterilised after use if you plan to re-use them
for Essiac. Bottle caps must be washed and rinsed thoroughly, and may be
cleaned with a 3% solution of food grade hydrogen peroxide in water.
Directions for use
- Heat 4 tablespoons (2 oz.) sodium-free distilled water in a
stainless steel pot. Add 4 tablespoons of Essiac (shake bottle first).

Caution: There is some concern about the high levels of oxalic acid
which can be produced by Sheep Sorrel and therefore Essiac should not be used
by people with impaired kidney function or arthritis without first seeking the
advice of a suitably qualified herbal practitioner.
