It's spelled essiac and is sold as an herbal tea. It is not recommended for use as a cancer treatment. You can read about it at the National Cancer Institute page:

Essiac/Flor•Essence
http://www.cancer.gov/cancerinfo/pdq/cam/essiac

Studies done on the product have provided differing results:

1. Two laboratory studies reported that Flor•Essence made tumor cells grow.

2. Another laboratory study reported that high doses of both Flor•Essence and Essiac herbal teas reduced the growth of cancer cells.

3. A 2004 animal study of Flor•Essence found that it caused breast tumor growth in rats.

If you have cancer you should discuss this with your oncologist as some herbal medication can interfere with cancer treatments.

Hello,
It's sad to say that Kidney Disease is the new American epidemic that attacks over 40 million people ever year and over 200 million worldwide. 10 months ago my Doctor told Me these depressing words "Your Kidneys Are FAILING!". I didn't know what to do to heal my kidneys I was terribly worried about being chained to a dialysis machine for the rest of my life. Luckily I was able to almost completely reverse my problems thanks to some great doctors here in Chicago.

I also found many interesting and eyeopening info about my condition on this site http://kidneydisease.toptips.org. Check it out!
