Nurse Rene M. Caisse is world renowned for having made significant contributions to the field of natural medicine.

Since 1922, Nurse Caisse used Essiac, her original herbal formula, to promote immune system health and overall well-being worldwide.*

The Essiac^® herbal supplement is a proprietary herbal formula and only Essiac^® brand is the original and legendary formula.

Essiac^® contains no artificial flavor, coloring or preservatives. The herbs are grown without the use of herbicides or pesticides.*

In 1922, a patient spoke to Nurse Rene M. Caisse of a Canadian Ojibwa Indian herbal formula. Nurse Caisse prepared her original herbal formula into a drink named Essiac, which is Nurse Caisse's name spelled backwards.

From 1922 to 1978 Nurse Caisse helped thousands of people with her Essiac herbal supplement at her clinic in Bracebridge, Ontario, Canada. Although she refused payments for her services, she accepted donations to help support her clinic. Nurse Caisse dedicated her life to using the Essiac formula and helping the suffering.

In 1977, Nurse Caisse signed over all her rights to her original Essiac formula only to Resperin Corporation Limited. Dr. Charles Brusch of Cambridge, MA, witnessed the signing of the agreement between Rene Caisse and Resperin attesting that her original herbal formula was never revealed to anyone other than to Resperin.

Resperin gave her the assurance that she sought, namely, that Essiac be produced and distributed for the benefit of all. On May 29th, 1995, however, Resperin transferred the rights to Essiac® and the corporation was voluntarily dissolved. Essiac Products Inc. now owns and manufactures the Essiac® herbal formula and distributes through Essiac® International.

Rene Caisse continues to be loved and remembered for her contribution to naturopathic medicine. Sculptures of Nurse Caisse have been dedicated in Bracebridge and at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto. Click here to read the story.
