E-Tea
How it Works
E-Tea consists of concentrated extracts of four common herbs based on a traditional Native American formula — burdock root, sheep sorrel aerial parts, slippery elm inner bark and turkey rhubarb root. These ingredients help support immunity and detoxification of the body. NSP’s E-Tea is formulated according to the Essiac tea formula. Named after Rene Caisse (Caisse spelled backwards), a Canadian nurse (circa 1920s), this combination is actually an herbal formula given to her by the Ojibwa Indians. Due to the complexity of the preparation process, it would take hours to make this tea at home. E-Tea provides a convenient capsule form of Essiac Tea.
Product Advantages E-Tea ?
Our non-GMO, vegan blend features a concentrated extract of the herbs Rene Caisse made famous in the early 20th century. And with all of our natural supplements, we pride ourselves on quality and sustainability. For example, our turkey rhubarb from China is grown for two to three years before it is harvested. This ensures optimal potency and reduces waste.
The story behind E-Tea
Burdock’s use has spanned ages and continents, as traditional practitioners in China, India, Europe and North America have prescribed it for respiratory support. Its dried roots were also used as a food source throughout the winter.
During the Middle Ages, sorrel was used as a sour additive to many foods. Today it helps flavor soups, sandwiches and salads in Romania; borscht in Russia; salads in Vietnam and Brazil; and soups and curry in India. In Germany, they have used sorrel to support respiratory health.
Elm trees grow in New England and the Great Lakes region. The red elm tree was used by many Native American tribes: the Iroquois used the bark topically while the Dakota and other tribes boiled the fresh inner bark and drank it as a natural laxative.
Turkey rhubarb has been used for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support healthy digestive and intestinal function.
