Ezzeac Plus Herb Information
BURDOCK ROOT – Throughout history Burdock has become legendary as the best “blood purifier” known. The history, as found in herb books, of this herb indicates that it is also beneficial to the skin as well as stomach ulceration. The Japanese have isolated, from Burdock Root named the B factor, the substance they believe is responsible for the effect on tumors. Some people believe that malignant cells and tumors start out as a fungus. This herb has shown the ability to destroy both fungus and various types of bacteria in laboratory experiments. This herb has been used over time to help support healthy blood sugar levels. Inulin, a substance in the root, helps the pancreas to produce insulin, which may make this herb beneficial to diabetics. Burdock helps the body eliminate excess fluid assisting the kidneys, liver, and the overall digestive system. This herb is rich in the B and E vitamins also minerals which include potassium, phosphorus iron, magnesium, zinc, silicon, cobalt, and chromium. Burdock Root the main ingredient in the formula and Dr. Maclean considers it the most important.
SHEEP SORREL HERB – Unlike Burdock, the leaves, stem, flowers and seeds of this plant are used. The arrowhead shaped leaves are rich in chlorophyll. Research at M.D. Anderson Cancer Hospital in Houston, Texas has shown that chlorophyll aids the body’s immune system in fighting against certain carcinogens and helps strengthen the overall immune system. Because this herb contains as much as 40 % iron compounds, it is also very effective as a blood purifier and excellent for the lymphatic system (years ago the immune system was called the lymphatic system). It may be proven to be effective in the war against chromosome damage which is considered by many to be a precursor to tumor growth. Sheep Sorrel is rich in Beta-carotene, Carotenoid compounds 8-12%. Also rich in Vitamins A, B complex, C, D, E, and K. Also minerals which include calcium, iron, magnesium, silicon, sulfur, and zinc.
CAT’S CLAW HERB – (This is not in our Ezzeac Plus™ Original Formula) According to Dr. Maclean, this herb is second only to burdock. This 100 foot long vine grows primarily in the Amazon Rain forest of Peru. The Ashanica Indians of Peru have used this plant for many hundreds of years to treat a large variety of health problems. Medical and other scientific research have shown the effectiveness of this herb to help strengthen the immune system. The natives used the inner bark of the vine for less severe problems and the root for more serious health issues These indigenous people used between 2 and 20 grams per day in the form of a tea. Dr. Maclean’s research with independent laboratories has shown the root to be 3 to 4 times higher in alkaloids than the vine. And it is the vine that most companies are selling in the US and Europe. Much of the previous medical research was done using the root of the plant, not the vine. At this time, it is believed that the alkaloids in the plant are the items responsible for the healing properties, but this has yet to be proven by science. Dr. Maclean feels that there may be other several properties about the plant especially the root that may be responsible for the benefits medical science has shown.
SLIPPERY ELM BARK – The inner bark of the Slippery Elm tree is stripped. dried and ground into powder. This herb differs from the others because of its mucilage properties. When wet, it becomes slimy. History reports that the Indians in the U.S. and Canada would oftentimes survive hard winters when game was scarce by eating the inner bark of the Slippery Elm tree because it is known to have more nutritional value than oat meal. The mucilage property makes this herb superb for coating any area it touches. It protects membrane linings thus decreasing inflammation. Many texts have reported about its use easing ulceration as well as lubrication of the joints. As it moves through the digestive track, it attaches to toxins and moves them out of the body thereby helping cleanse the entire system.
TURKISH (INDIAN) RHUBARB ROOT – This ancient herb has been used in both the Orient, (specifically by the Chinese) for more than 2,000 years and in North America by the Indians. In 1987 a research team investigated 178 Chinese herbs for antibacterial activity against one of the major microorganisms in human intestinal flora. Only Rhubarb was found to have significant activity. Recent scientific findings show Rhubarb in small amounts as a cathartic (cause a laxative effect) due to the anthraquinones and anthraquinone sugar derivatives and in large amounts as an astringent (anti diuretic effect) due to the tannins. The opposite effects caused by this plant are simply due to the amount taken at any given time. Take a small amount and get one effect and take a large amount and get the opposite. One hospital studied three kinds of extracted Rhubarb used over 10 years. Employing a double blind method, patients in each of three groups showed an efficiency of over 90% in stopping their upper digestive tract bleeding. One problem with this herb is that it has a high level of oxalic acid, which may cause renal damage as a result of the formation of excessive calcium oxalate. Oxalate’s can cause the development of kidney stones and lead to kidney damage. Therefore it is absolutely necessary to add another herb to the formula to help offset the negative potential danger of Turkey Rhubarb Root.
WATERCRESS – Historically the Greeks and Romans thought this herb improved the brain and later in medieval Europe it was used for sword wounds. Early settlers used it to prevent scurvy, a spring tonic and as an appetite stimulant and the Indians adopted it as a food and used it to treat kidney and liver problems. Today the British eat Watercress sandwiches and use it instead of lettuce. Dr. Charles Brusch, Physician to the late President John F. Kennedy (fellow researcher with Nurse Rene Caisse the promoter of the original essiac formula), informed Dr. Maclean that Watercress should be added to the formula, in very specific amounts, to offset the negative effects of the oxalic acid from Turkish Rhubarb. Watercress is high in vitamin C, which is an antioxidant. Antioxidants are one of the items that help dissolve kidney stones. Watercress is rich in various mineral salts as well as vitamins C, A, B2, D, and E.
Dr. Charles Brusch told Dr. Maclean that although he and Nurse Caisse had added other herbs to the formula, these were all the herbs necessary to get the desired results. Following the old established herbalist philosophy, Dr. Maclean elected to use the fewest number of herbs possible to get the desired results. One year later Dr. Maclean improved the way the herbs in the formula were processed. Instead of boiling all the herbs together in one pot, (which is the process that all other manufactures use), each individual plant was now treated separately and several were never boiled. This almost doubled the effectiveness of the formula. Dr. Maclean is the only person in the US or Canada who does this. In 1994 he decided to add Cat’s Claw herb to the formula due to it’s reported immune enhancing properties. Physicians and health food stores around the country consider this the most effective of the formulas available today. To get the desired results, it is important to use the correct amount of Cat’s Claw in the Ezzeac formula. Keep in mind that there are times when a person should not take Cat’s Claw herb in any form. This is why Ezzeac Plus is offered in two formulas, one without and one with Cat’s Claw herb.
EZZEAC PLUS TEAS IMPORTANT INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
1) We were the first company to commercially manufacture an essiac® type formula in the United States.
2) We are today and have always been the largest manufacturer in the United States and the second largest in
the world.
3) Dr. Maclean first made this formula 16 years ago, then 2 years later Flora produced their version and
called it “Flor-Essence”, then a year after that, Resperin came out with their outdated version called
“Essiac”. Even though they had this tea for 17 years they would not sell it to the public until Dr. Maclean went
public with his formula and Flora made the name popular.
4) There are three major differences between our brand and all other brands on the market:
i) Our brand uses three times the herbs as all other brands.
ii) Our manufacturing method does not boil all the herbs together but instead treats
each herb separately, doubling the effectiveness.
iii) Our brand is the only one to have two versions of tea; one with cat’s claw herb and
one without.
5) Contrary to what companies are telling everyone, NO essiac type formula will raise the immune system.
Most diseases are an immune deficient problem. Dr. Maclean is the only researcher to add Cat’s Claw to the
formula to help strengthen the immune system.
