Re: 4-herb recipe vs. 8-herb recipe
I met Charles Brusch, M.D., President Kennedy's personal physician [in 1986] through his herbalist Arthur David [now deceased]. A family member put her trust in the medical community for a year and a half and was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She passed away. A family member told me about the Essiac. Basically, I thought it had no merit.
Benefit of doubt, I explored the information thanks to the assistance of this wonderfully generous man. I offered to volunteer to help him as he was progressing in age. I learned that
Essiac is no more no less than a blood purifier; cleans out toxic elements from the bloodstream. I also learned that the "original 4 herb formula", when used in a cancer clinic, was administered through I.V.. That is why the lack of availability to the general public.
In 1979, Dr. Brusch merged with Rene
Caisse at the Brusch Medical Center in Cambridge, Ma. in an attempt to create an "oral" formula. Otherwise, it would be unavailable after the cessation of the clinic. The oral application was to be the equivalent in efficacy to the I.V. application. They accomplished this.
In 1992, I was invited to do a TV talk show with Dr. Brusch along with some local individuals who had success. [1-800-642-1551] The tape is still available. Prior to that show, no one had ever heard of Essiac. The first gallon was sold in Salisbury, Ma. by Arthur David in 1984. It was trademarked. No one has the formula.
The formula was given to me and placed in a safety deposit box for security. I have been working with people internationally since 1986. Unfortunately, individuals have been using my name online to sell bogus
Essiac without my authorization.
In today's times, the
Essiac should never be referred to as the "cureall". We have many difference obstacles such as metal toxicity, parasites, etc. People need to have specific blood testing to isolate and treat contaminants adding other protocols with the Essiac.
