Who discovered ESSIAC?
Essiac was discovered in 1922, when a patient spoke to Nurse Rene Caisse of a Canadian Ojibwa Indian herbal tea she took. Nurse Caisse eventually named the formula Essiac, which is Nurse Caisse’s name spelled backwards. She ran her clinic on Dominion Street from 1934 to 1942 and continued to give Essiac to people until the late 1970’s.( essiac is pronounced by saying s-e-ac) Dr. Charles A. Brusch MD. Personal physician to President John F. Kennedy and Nurse Rene Caisse, founder of Essiac, partnered together to perfect the most effective formula for the Miracle of Essiac. This formula was selected after eight years of testing by them at the Brusch Medical Research Center in Cambridge, MA. They concluded that this proprietary synergistic blend of eight herbs (4 original + 4 additional) were found to be the most effective and yielded the best results when brewed into a tea.
