                      prepared using only the finestquality herbs. The herbs used 
                      in this formula are always organically grown or ecologically 
                      wildcrafted and will never be irridated or fumigated.</font></p>

                      elm bark (the innermost bark) and Turkish rhubarb root.

                      4 additional herbs have sometimes been added to the original 
                      formula. The addition of these herbs is based on the research 
                      of Dr. Charles Brusch M.D., the personal physician to president 
                      John F. Kennedy. Dr. Brusch worked closely with Rene Caisse 
                      for many years, and after 30 years of testing and research, 
                      believed the formula to be perfected. These herbs (watercress, 
                      red clover, blessed thistle and kelp) are added to enhance 
                      the original formula. It is believed by some that these 
                      additional herbs help bring out the full potential of the 
                      original herbs, which still make up the heart and soul of 
                      the formula.</font></p>
                    <p class="medl"><font color="#990099">So that you may make 
                      your own choice regarding these additions, Native Essense 
                      is available in the original 4 herb formula (known as Native 
                      Essense original) and also in the &quot;enhanced&quot; 8 
                      herb formula (known as Native Essense Plus). We make no 
                      recommendations with regard to these additions, and since 
                      both formulas contain the original &quot;essential herbs&quot; 
                      as traditionally prepared and proportioned, we believe either

                    <p class="green"><strong>The Ojibway</strong><br>
                      <span class="mediumfont">The Ojibway have been described 
                      as having a knowledge of herbal healing and spiritual powers 
                      as extensive as any other native American tribe. The medicine 
                      men gained their knowledge of plants in several ways. It 
                      came in the form of spiritual visions, intuition and thousands 
                      of years of observation. Observing the behavior of ill and 
                      injured animals, they learned which plants the animals consumed 
                      to heal themselves. From these sources as well as guidance 
                      from the Great Spirit, Kitche Manitou, they amassed a wealth 
                      of knowledge and passed it down from generation to generation.</span></p>
                    <p class="mediumfont"><font color="#009900">The Ojibway believe 
                      that all plants, as creations of the Great Creator, express 
                      their own unique identity. They believe that each plant 
                      possesses an incorporeal being: a spiritual substance that 
                      gives it physical form, growth potential and healing powers. 
                      They also believe that plants have another remarkable power, 
                      the power to combine and become a single &quot;unified spirit,&quot; 
                      much more powerful than any of the plants individually. 
                      They feel this &quot;unified spirit&quot; gives the formulas 
                      supernatural healing powers. Not coincidentally, many modern 
                      herbalists believe the action of this formula must be the 
                      &quot;synergy&quot; of these combined herbs, some &quot;magical&quot; 
                      quality emerging when blended together.</font></p>
                    <p class="green"><strong>Rene Caisse</strong><br>
                      <span class="mediumfont">In 1922, Canadian Nurse Rene Caisse 
                      received the Ojibway formula from a patient. Giving it the 
                      name Essiac (Caisse spelled backwards) she used the herbal 
                      remedy many times over the next 50 years and her work with 
                      it has been described as &quot;one of the most remarkable 
                      stories in all of medicine.&quot;</span></p>
                    <p class="medl"><font color="#009900">Her life and work have 
                      been well documented in several books, as well as countless 
                      magazine and newspaper articles, recounting numerous claims 
                      and testimonials from people said to have benefited from 
                      this remarkable, safe and simple formula.</font></p>
                    <p class="mainc"><strong><font color="#009900">Exclusivity:</font></strong></p>
                    <p class="medl"><font color="#009900">Some companies claim 
                      to have the only recipe for the formula, but it is readily 
                      available for everyone to benefit from, as all good things 
                      from earth should be. Dr. Gary Glum published a biography 
                      of nurse Caisse entitled <i>Calling of an Angel</i> (1988). 
                      He was given the formula by Mary MacPherson, a close friend 
                      of nurse Caisse, and he sends the formula with his book. 
                      Likewise, the formula was published in the book <i>The Essence 
                      of Essiac</i> by Canadian Sheila Snow.</font></p>
                    <p class="medl"><font color="#009900">Our formula uses the 
                      same herbs and the same ratios as nurse Rene Caisse recommended. 
                      Native Essense Rene Caisse formulas are prepared in a traditional 
                      manner by our trusted herbalist, who started making the 
                      formula for others after being relieved of his own symptoms of stomach ulcers in 1992.</font></p>
