These statements are based from historical uses and in no way to be construed as medical advice. Consult a medical Doctor to prescribe drugs. Some DAN doctors know how to use herbs. The herbs contained in Ojibwa tea i.e. Essiac tea are Burdock, turkey rhubarb, sheep sorrel and slippery elm bark. This tea has traditionally been used for detoxification and is the major tea used for cancer patients in the natural healing world. Burdock is historically one of the strongest blood purifiers of all the herbs. It also cleanses liver. It is used primarily as a chelating agent to remove heavy metals. Turkey rhubarb has been used in colon cleansing products to help heal the gut. Slippery Elm Bark removes mucus and is helpful in healing tissues. If Sheep Sorrel is the same as Sorrel then it is used as a diruetic, kidney and liver cleanse. It also expels worms. It is full of vitamin C. Herbalists consider herbs the same as vegetables and fruits full of the vitamins and minerals that the body needs to heal. Nervines for example contain a lot of B-vitamins, calcium and trace minerals needed to support the nervous system. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
