Guest guest Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 While there still wet......microwave them for 20 secs The instructions say to pour the tea into hot sterilized bottles. Do you all sterilize the bottles & if so, how? I thought I could just wash them in hot soapy water, dry them & that would be good enough. I don't want to have to buy more equipment just to sterilize the bottles. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks. Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hi Susie, No need to use sterilized bottles, just good clean ones... If you want to sterilize your bottles, put 3 activated drops of MMS with a few ounces of water in the empty bottle and swish it all around, empty and allow to air dry, it is sterilized... This is not necessary though.. Take care, Jim > > The instructions say to pour the tea into hot sterilized bottles. Do you all sterilize the bottles & if so, how?

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Hi Susie, I actually left out some important Essiac tea history about sterilizing bottles... Back in the day when Nurse Caisse was making this tea, she made two gallons at a time as she had many patients coming to her home daily for their dose of Essiac. This is the original recipe Nurse Caisse used for the tea, notice it contains 256 ounces of water, this is exactly 2 gallons: http://www.healthfreedom.info/Essiac%20formula.htm Well back then, the way to save foods (well today also) was canning.. So she would can her Essiac tea the same way food was canned, by first sterilizing the bottles, then adding the tea. This way the tea would be good for a long time, although she typically used this up in just 2 - 3 months... Today when we make Essiac, I've actually broken the recipe down to pints 1 1/2 pints and quarts of Essiac, so we don't need to " can " this tea as it has a shelf life of about 2 months (or less) refrigerated... So there is absolutely no reason to sterilize your glass container, just wash after each batch is used up and rinse well and allow to air dry. And remember, Essiac is a time proven detoxifier... It immobilizes toxins from our fat cells (including metals) and they are flushed from the body.. I also use a good toxin binder, Glucomannan so I can be sure these immobilized toxins are bound and removed from the body... I am not sure if a toxin binder is necessary, but I consider it good insurance.. I take it 1 hour after drinking my Essiac tea... Essiac also has one more very important function, this is actually why Essiac was discovered in the first place... It is an excellent detoxer for cancer, it also encapsulates the cancer tumor and prevents it from spreading. Sometimes the body will effeciently remove the tumor, other times it remains and if surgery is necessary, it is in one neat little package and easy to remove as it has not spread. Nurse Caisse was not allowed to treat cancer patients, she lost out because she came up 3 votes short in the Canadian gov't vote to allow her a nurse to treat patients, however, she was given the right to treat stage 4 cancer patients that were released by their doctors and sent home to die. Many of these stage 4 and 4+ cancer patients had their lives extended because of the efforts of Nurse Caisse, and she never excepted any money for her efforts, he tea was free to all cancer patients. I consider Essiac tea to be one of the most important supplements we Lymies use, I an others have felt better after starting to drink the tea... After my new tick bite last year I was not doing so well until early fall when I discovered Essiac tea and I felt better the first week I started drinking it.. This told me my problem was not a " killing " problem, but rather a detox problem. Enjoy!! Jim > > > > The instructions say to pour the tea into hot sterilized bottles.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Jim, That's even easier yet. I'll have to remember the air dry part. I ordered my herbs so I'll be making it probably this week.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Hi Susie, Essiac tea should be taken 1 hr before or 2 hour after food, supps and meds... The recommended time is first thing in the AM or last thing in the PM... Important, use just one dose of the tea daily at just 1 oz of the tea, which should be cold out of the fridge, add to this 2 oz of hot water, stir and sip everything, including the sediment on the bottom. It is very important not to take the tea near food, supps and meds. Enjoy! Jim > > Hi all, > > Can essiac tea be taken a couple hours after breakfast or mid afternoon? The woman at Mountain herbs said to take it on an empty stomach before bed. I can't go to bed without eating something small, plus I take my mms around 8:30 or 9 pm & don't know if that would conflict. Thanks. > > Susie > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 JimOh Lord High mucky mucky of Lyme_and Rife,Sir JimI Thank ye for your acknowledgement Curtsies lowloljan Re: OT: Essiac tea Posted by: "jimjax2" jimjax2@... jimjax2 Date: Fri Apr 6, 2012 7:01 pm ((PDT))Hi Susie,I agree with Jan about shaking the tea concentrate before using it, otherwise you will weak tea to begin with, strong tea near the end of the bottle... But please don't put anything into your stomach, you have to take Essiac 1 hour before or 2 hours after food.. Best option is to try what mentioned, sipping it slowly... If this does not work, then instead of using 1 oz of the concentrate, try 1/2 ounce, uh as Jan says, then scale up from here... If you can only use 1/2 ounce to start with, try to do this twice daily as 1 ounce is the correct dose daily for Essiac tea.. Did you strain the tea after making it? I have forgotten ever time except for today!! If it is not strained, it is stronger. If it is strained, then drink all of the tea including the small sediment on the bottom, uh again as Jan mentioned, it is all pure health!!Remember too, you need to take one week off from the tea monthly... Required for efficacy..
