History of R. Caisse
primary document · 2026
SUMMARY
A current commercial seller's own company-history page, actively selling ESSIAC-branded powder, capsules, and liquid via an online shopping cart, carrying the standard FDA dietary-supplement disclaimer ("not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease"). States the 1922 Ojibwa-formula origin story, the 1934-1942 Bracebridge, Ontario clinic on Dominion Street, and the 1977 transfer of Caisse's formula rights to Resperin Corporation Limited. Fetched directly 2026-08-17; used only for the company's own self-description and for confirming ongoing 2026 commercial sale (active_continuation), not as an authority on medical efficacy.
NOTES
The current-side source establishing that Essiac remains commercially sold today under Rene Caisse’s name, more than a century after she is said to have obtained the formula, and supplying (as the seller’s own account) the standard biographical/company-history narrative this case treats as company self-description rather than independent fact.
