Can I give Essiac tea to my pets?
Yes! The dosage you give your pet is based on their weight (see chart below). Individuals have seen great success having their pets take the tea directly, or adding it to their food and water if they don’t prefer to drink it straight.
Note: This chart below applies to all Essiac tea except the Just Tea *pre-made* Essiac which is brewed double-strength. With this product, your full dosage is 1oz twice a day instead of 2oz, so you’ll half these amounts.
Additional tips on giving Essiac to pets:
- Try to give your pets without food, but if they won’t drink it straight, add it to a bowl of water or into their food.
- Please note that Essiac may give your pet loose stools/diarrhea. Make sure to monitor them closely and take them outside frequently, especially when you first start them on Essiac.
- We’ve seen folks give Essiac to a range of different pets, from cats and dogs to horses.
