Case History
We take half an hour to one hour in investigating the case history. Age, sex, height, weight, food habits, usage of stimulants, home and work place environments, life style factors, ailments suffered in the past, any other present ailments, mental stress, psychological factors etc are important factors in identifying the root causes.
Irregular food habits, poor or malnutrition, lack of micronutrients in food, food contamination, infections, inadequate amount of fibre in food, family or business problems, mental tensions, insomnia, very low immunity to disease etc are often the root causes.
Treatment
We always adopt a holistic approach in treating any ailment. In addition to herbal formulas, we ensure that the patient is getting the primary nutrients (complex carohyydrates, proteins, and fat) and micro-nutrients (vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and amino acids) in the right ratios.
Success Rate
There are literally dozens of Essiac herbal formula suppliers in North America. They all claim that literally hundreds of patients with different kinds of cancer were completely cured even after being given up as hopeless cases after radiation, surgery, and chemotherapy treatments. Unfortunately they only write about patients who were successfully cured not about those on whom the treatment was not successful.
Since only edible and completely safe food products are being offered as medicines, there is definitely no need to do clinical research on animals first. There is also no need to do double blind studies on human beings. In fact, conventional medicine itself did not do any double blind studies on cardiovascular patients or cancer patients.
In fact, no hospital publishes the long term success rates of angioplasty, stent, and bypass surgery procedures. Nor do they publish the success rates of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy in the case of cancer patients. But they regard these procedures as effective and legally valid anyway.
Ideally and scientifically speaking, any system of medicine including conventional allopathic medicine, should publish the success rates of each medical or surgical procedure with regard to heart patients as well as cancer patients in terms of short term relief, extending life span, and permanent cure. This gives far more useful information to patients to make their own choice with regard to treatment than imposing a treatment on a patient in the name of approval by FDA, government, or the medical association of a particular system of medicine. This is particularly so in the case of heart patients and cancer patients because health care costs on these two categories of patients claim a lion’s share of national health care costs in all western countries.
