Have just joined this group in order to assist a friend who is a caregiver to her husband with cancer and searching for info. Is anyone familiar with the Native American product, "Two Feathers Healing Formula" or "Flor-essence Herbal Tea Blend"? Do they work? Either or both? How effective? Any other suggestions? Appreciative of any and all help you can give. God bless --

    I've never heard of this product but in my research, I've read that herbal teas, though somewhat comforting, aren't scientifically proven to work. You might want to tell your friend that if she chooses to use herbal teas, to check with her doctor first to make sure there aren't any drug interactions with the herbs.
