10/03/2010: Connie from Bawlf, Alberta replies: "My brother has CML and is about to go on Gleevec. Can you tell me where you got your Essiac Tea? I can buy Essiac Tea at Walmart (but I don't know if this is the right stuff). My brother is trying to keep up with his business and everything else he has on the go. He has low energy, gets nosebleeds unexpectedly and has lost his appetite (he's been taking Imatinib for about two years, but now has to move on to Gleevec)."

10/04/2010: Bessie from Calgary, Alberta, Canada replies: "Hi Connie - In case Pat doesn't respond (her post was from 2009), the Essiac Tea most people use is the original herbal formula from Rene M. Caisse. The bottle has a light green label with a small picture of her on the front (I believe it's from Essiac Canada International). It's widely available at health food stores but I don't know if Shoppers or Walmart carries it. Good luck!"

02/06/2011: Robert from Eagle Nest, NM, USA replies: "Good morning all, I have made Essiac tea for many years. I would recommend you get the formula and make your own. Use a formula that uses only the original herbs. This way you can be more sure of the consistency."

05/29/2011: Ollie from Verona, Pa replies: "How do you make your own ESSIAC tea? What are the egridients, and what's the measurement of making it? Please email me this information. TY."

05/30/2011: Vivi from Atlanta, Ga replies: "Ollie. Check this web side for detail information how to make Essiac tea

http://www.larrywinfield.com/recipe1.htm

I purchase individualy organic ingridience on internet and make my own tea. It's important to get organic, fresh, and potent herbs. If you make your own mix, you can make the tea stronger and always fresh. Google for bulk organic herbs. I buy from www.mountainroseherbs.com/, but any other place is good.

12/18/2011: Dogma from Honolulu, Hawaii replies: "The advice is good - has to be organic and as fresh as possible. I suspect Walmart, etc. are not the best sources if you are truly looking for the best of the best. Also note that if you are thinking there is a "magic pill" or "magic tea" as it may be here, there is rarely such a thing. With a dis-ease, you will need to attack it from more than one angle. Here are 4 big areas to consider:

1. Detox (includes heavy metal detox for all the exposure your entire life = hair analysis will show how toxic you are),

2. Build the immune system,

3. Starve the cancer (if applicable),

4. Change your diet - no sugar or white flour (feeds cancer), organic 100% or as much as you can, etc. There are a few great diets for people with cancer. For a wealth of information on natural options for cancer and diet information, try www.cancertutor.com. It's fabulous. And find a good N. D. (Naturopath) who you can work with to determine which things are right for you and your specific ailment.

ON VIT C: Vitamin C drips are so powerful, every cancer patient should be doing them. High doses of Vit C IV'd into your system (usually you sit for a few hours while it is done). It does detox you as it supports the immune system so you may feel tired and worn out - that is just a sign that it is working. They do drips of up to 200,000 mgs so thinking you can get the Vit C benefit from pills alone is not true. But even some supplementation will help - no one with cancer should be w/o Vit C in as high doses as the body will tolerate (tolerate means take as much as you can w/o getting the runs).

Be healed!"

Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Dear Jerome: There was a couple of cases I know personally where leukemia was help with raising pH. One case I had from Australia who went into remission from Leukemia, where the scheduled chemotherapy was to take place. The blood pH needs not be raise, but when we take sufficient alkalinity, the biochemical makeup of the body is changed. The leukemia remedy that one case use was 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda plus 1/2 teaspoon of citric acid in 1/2 glass of water taken twice a day. It takes about 3 or 4 weeks to get the body's pH BUFFERS sufficient level where the body can handle or raise its immune system.

Hence, while the urinary alkalinity is raise the blood pH pretty much stays within normal range the only differences is that pH acid spikes don't occur and this is where the body can be sufficiently "alkalinity" from more pH buffers take place in allowing the body's immune system to be high enough where the white blood cells can digest the excess leukemia buildup in the body.

The remedy that was mentioned was an old one, a newer remedy I think that might help raise the body's buffering system necessary to support the immune system is 1/2 teaspoon of sodium citrate plus 1/8 teaspoon of potassium citrate in 1/2 glass of water taken at least twice (preferably) three times a day.

Once this is taken for about a month whichever remedy mentioned, the remedy is reduced to about 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda plus 1/4 teaspoon of citric acid in 1/2 glass of water.

It is the alkalinity buffer which prevents the acid pH spikes, while it is true the body's homeostasis is excellent, it KNOWS that the body is alkaline, from the changes in biochemical portions in the body and the alkalinity nature of the urine pH is also reflected. Hence, we need not raise the pH in the blood, raise in the urine, and get sufficient alkaline pH buffers is all that is needed.

Mind you this is a simple leukemia remedy that I found to be helpful, when the alkalinity is raised, the oxygen levels in the blood goes up, the carbonic acid waste gas carbon dioxide is reduced, and the nitric oxide levels in the body is raised (it degrades needlessly if there is LACK of alkaline pH buffers). Hence to further raise the oxygen, I believe adding 3-5 drops of 3% H2O2 food grade to the alkaline remedy twice a day. The H2O2 also oxidizes toxins by oxidation and this may also reduce unnecessary toxic burden which aids in the body's immune system.

A much simpler remedy of course, if supplements can't be found is 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in 1/2 glass of water taken three times a day.

One other case of cancer that was helped was simply adding 1 drop of clove oil in 1/2 or 1 glass of water three timds a day. After adding this, it is stirred and then drink. However, the clove oil works best when added with the baking soda. Clove oil is the single most powerful antioxidant on the ORAC scale.

Hope this info helps!"

07/27/2009: Lon from Stanhope, NJ replies: "Does anyone know where in the USA, I can get the citric acid or sodium citrate mentioned by Ted? Are these normally sold in health food stores? pharmacies? other? I found a citric acid product with home canning supplies, but it contained other ingredients that probably aren't good.

I was just diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. I've found a lot of extremely promising info about feverfew extract and leukemia, but then the research seems to just drop off. Feverfew is prolific in my yard. Who would have thought! Green tea and EFA are suppose to be good.

Any suggestions for leukemia will be helpful and appreciated. Of course I could be fine for years with this chronic type of leukemia, but want to do my best to stay well. I have a medically dependent son with Down Syndrome, whose daily health care is complex. There is a guardian to succeed me, but the longer I can take care of him, to get him in the best shape possible, the better, so I need to stay well as long as I can. "

10/10/2009: Anonymous from Lansing, Mi replies: "A family member had lymphoma and tried raw food diets. He followed Dr. Schultz's (out of California) remedies and flushed for 30 day periods. All raw, all juiced. If you aren't digesting, then your body is healing. You can get all the nutients from foods without digesting when you have juice. He has been in remission for almost 10 years. He wanted to know why this worked. He found that cancer needs salt and protein to thrive. This process takes the body away from salt and protein for periods long enough for cancer to dissolve. You can get just enough protein from green food (spirulina with barley and wheat grasses)."

11/14/2010: Ana V from Houston, Texas replies: "Ted, I have a question regarding the pH recommendations, the 1/2 tsp baking soda, would it be too strong for a four yr old? and how can I modify it?"

02/04/2011: Lani from Prescott, Az replies: "To Lon,

Citric Acid can be found at any site that carries MMS (miracle mineral supplement)."

02/06/2011: Lon from Stanhope , Nj replies: "Does anyone have thoughts about green tea and flouride. I've read green tea, even organic, absorbs flouride like a sponge, yet it's recommended by the mayoclinic for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, which I have. Should I take it with something to offset the flouride? I assume risking flouride poinsoning may be worth the benefits for leukemia from the green tea. I did experience a drop in my white blood cell count, which is good, while taking green tea extract, along with ted's ph remedies, EFAs, soy, vit C, more raw vegetables, little to no meat and no sugar, exercise and meditation. Since I stoppoed the green tea my numbers habe been going up slowly.... Maybe the extracts don't have flouride/ Any input?"
