BURDOCK ROOT (Arctium Lappa)
Used traditionally to help reduce mucus, maintain
a healthy gastrointestinal tract, stimulate a healthy
immune response, serves as a diuretic for waste
retention, and sweat out toxins through the skin.
Over 90 years of ESSIAC® History:
SLIPPERY ELM BARK (Ulmus Fulva)
Contains large amounts of tannins and
mucilages which are believed to help dissolve
mucus deposits in tissue, glands, and
nerve channels.
From 1922 to 1978, nurse Caisse helped thousands of
people with her ESSIAC® herbal formula at her clinic,
in Bracebridge, Ontario, Canada.
INDIAN RHUBARB ROOT (Rheum Officinale)
Used traditionally in small amounts, this herb
acts as a gentle laxative and helps purge
the liver of toxic buildup and waste.
ESSIAC® is a proprietary herbal formula that has been
available since 1922. This formula was given to nurse
Rene Caisse from a Canadian Ojibwa Indian, to help
support the immune system. Nurse Caisse named her
formula ESSIAC®, which is her name spelled backwards.

In 1977, nurse Caisse signed over all of her rights to
the ESSIAC® formula, to a Canadian company.
Today, ESSIAC® Canada International owns the rights
to the ESSIAC® and ESSIAC® for Pets formulas,
made only in Canada and exported worldwide.
SHEEP SORREL LEAVES (Rumex Acetosella)
Used in traditional folk herbalism to cool the body,
create sweating and detoxification through the skin.
This herb is useful in maintaining healthy kidneys and
urinary functions. It is rich in vitamins and trace minerals
and is thought to nourish the glandular system.

Maintaining a Health Immune System…
The immune system of a cat or dog is as complex as the
human immune system. Your pets’ immune system helps
to keep them in optimal health.
Giving ESSIAC® to Your Pets...
ESSIAC® for Pets is made from nurse Rene Caisse’s
Proprietary Herbal Formula, manufactured only in Canada
by ESSIAC® Canada Intl. Our new ESSIAC® for Pets capsule
formula was made with your pet’s well-being in mind,
easy and convenient to take.
Consider the following suggestions to help
maintain a strong and healthy immune system:
• Use ESSIAC® for Pets as suggested by your
health care professional or veterinarian.
• Always give your pet a fresh and clean supply
of drinking water.
The ESSIAC® for Pets capsule formula can be given
with a small amount of food, or simply use a convenient
‘pill pocket’ that you can find in your local pet store.
• Make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise
outdoors (if possible). Spending time in the sunlight
helps in the production of vitamin D.
The following chart will give you the suggested daily
amounts for your cat or dog in relation to their weight.
• What you feed your pet is very important. Make sure
your pets’ diet is as good as possible. Read the labels
for chemicals, food additives and preservatives,
which you should try to avoid.
• Consider adding fresh fruits, vegetables, grains
and proteins to your pet’s regular diet (consult your
veterinarian).
WEIGHT
QUANTITY
Up to 20 lbs. ½ capsule twice daily
21 to 50 lbs. 1 capsule twice daily
Over 50 lbs. 2 capsules twice daily
CAUTION: For prolonged use consult your veterinarian.
• Try to protect your pet from environmental toxins such
as pesticides, which can be toxic to your pet’s health.
• Consider giving your pet a mineral and vitamin
supplement daily, or as directed by a health care
professional or veterinarian.
• Control your pet’s weight through proper nutrition
and exercise, so they remain fit. Excess weight will
add unnecessary stress to their bodies.
Stress-free environments are good for everyone,
including your pet.
Remember your pet relies
on you completely!
