The Hoxsey Tonic: Herbal Combination Remedy for Cancer

The Hoxsey Tonic is one of the most famous herbal cancer tonics developed in the United States. Today, this herbal tonic is provided by the Bio-Medical Center in Tijuana, Mexico to cancer patients, along with recommended lifestyle changes and dietary/nutritional therapies. Many of the herbs in the Hoxsey Tonic, such as red clover and burdock root, are also found in other major herbal cancer tonics such as Essiac Tea (burdock) and Sir Jason Winters’ Tea (red clover). Patients who visit the Hoxsey Bio-Medical Clinic can also get high-tech diagnostic tests done at an affordable price and then return home armed with information and the herbal Hoxsey tonic to care for themselves at home. This clinic is one of the most affordable cancer treatment centers available to cancer patients who wish to still work with doctors, but who also want to avoid conventional cancer treatments like chemo and radiation. 

The Hoxsey Tonic and the Hoxsey Clinic

The Hoxsey Tonic is an herbal formula that was developed by Harry Hoxsey in Illinois in the 1840s. As such, this is an herbal tea with a long and successful history in treating cancers of all kinds, and even certain other major health problems like autoimmune disease (and more). More detailed information about the herbs included in the Hoxsey Tonic and their purpose in treating cancer and restoring health is below. 

Treatment at the Hoxsey Bio-Medical Center includes herbs, a special diet, and vitamin and mineral supplementation. Patients are also given lifestyle counseling and encouraged to maintain a positive attitude. Conventional medical treatments can be given to patients if necessary or desired, since qualified medical doctors are on staff to assist and support patients on their chosen path to recovery. The primary goal of the Hoxsey treatment is to strengthen the patient’s impaired immune system, and then to ultimately cure cancer and other major diseases so as to restore the patient to total health. 

The Bio-Medical Center makes use of modern diagnostic methods to first determine whether or not a patient has cancer. Then, doctors and other cancer treatment experts work together to create a specific treatment plan for each individual patient depending on the type of cancer they have and where it is located in the body. These diagnostic methods used at the Hoxsey Clinic include the following:

  • X-rays
  • Ultrasound
  • CT scan
  • Others [1]


Politics

Harry Hoxsey’s great-grandfather first developed this special cancer-curing tonic to treat his prized horses in the 1840’s. The tonic was a family secret, but as Harry’s father lay dying, he gave Harry the recipe to the secret family tonic. His father made Harry promise to give the treatment to cancer patients everywhere who couldn’t afford conventional medical treatment, and warned his son that the medical establishment wouldn’t like this alternative treatment.

Harry ultimately decided to study medicine to become a doctor, but his family didn’t have a lot of money. So, he tried working at a variety of different jobs to save up for college, but his progress was slow. One night, a friend of his father came to ask Harry for help curing his cancer. Harry was reluctant at first to use the tonic without a medical license, but the man pleaded with Harry by saying, “The first thing doctors learn is that a human life is sacred”.

Finally, Harry agreed to give the man the tonic [1].

More patients came, and eventually Harry was able to open a private medical clinic in 1924 in Taylorville, Illinois. By 1936, despite the medical establishment’s attempts to stop him, Harry had cancer treatment clinics in 17 states, and the Hoxsey Tonic (and its accompanying treatments) was endorsed by doctors, judges, and senators. Even two federal courts upheld Harry’s right to treat cancer. By 1950, Harry’s cancer treatment clinic in Dallas, Texas was the largest privately-operated cancer treatment center in the world.

Doctors from the American Medical Association challenged Harry to demonstrate how the Hoxsey Tonic works by treating a terminal cancer patient. So, he offered them a demonstration (he was successful in treating the patient with the herbal remedy). Then, the AMA doctors asked to buy rights to the Hoxsey Tonic. When Harry said “no”, the American Medical Association set to work denouncing Harry and his tonic as fraudulent.

Still, patients kept going to Harry’s clinics to receive the powerful Hoxsey Tonic.

In 1946, Mildred Nelson, Harry’s most trusted assistant and clinic nurse, started working at the Dallas, Texas clinic. She learned all of the “secrets” of the Hoxsey treatment method. When Harry became sick with heart disease, he asked that Mildred carry on the legacy of the Hoxsey treatment, and urged her to open a clinic in Tijuana, Mexico to get the American Medical Association off their backs. 

Over the next few decades, each of Harry’s clinics in the United States were closed by legal actions instigated by a variety of medical institutions. Mildred opened the Tijuana Hoxsey Clinic in 1963. Today, this clinic is known as the Bio-Medical Center and Mildred’s sister, Liz Jonas, is the chief administrator of the clinic.

Safety and Effectiveness

Treatment at the Bio-Medical Center can be used to treat a wide variety of different types of cancer, in addition to acting to treat other types of health problems. The Hoxsey Tonic is a safe and gentle cancer treatment method, and has been used to treat the following types of cancer (among many others; patient testimonials can be found on the clinic’s Rumble channel): 



The Hoxsey Tonic has also been used to cure a variety of different types of diseases besides cancer including:



How the Hoxsey Tonic Is Administered

The Hoxsey Tonic at the Bio-Medical Center is customized for each patient’s particular cancer, but there is a standard recipe for the tea. Two ingredients are used as the base for the tonic [2]:

  1. Cascara sagrada (Rhamnus purshiana) bark powder
  2. Potassium iodide (a mineral used to supply the body with bio-available iodine to support thyroid health, mitigate radioactive damage, and balance hormones) [2]


A variety of other herbs are also added to the tonic in the following proportions per dose depending on each patient’s individual needs:

  • Poke root (Phytolacca americana) –10 milligrams


Poke root is an anti-inflammatory medicine and an immune-boosting herb. It boosts immunity by increasing lymphocyte counts and the amount of immunoglobulin in the blood. It’s a particularly strong herb for the lymphatic system since it helps cleanse the lymphatic glands and remove metabolic wastes from the body. In large doses, poke root is an emetic and a purgative, so it must be used with care in the appropriate doses. 



Burdock root is also a key ingredient used in Essiac tea for the treatment of cancer (and other major diseases). Burdock prevents cellular mutation and has anti-tumor properties. It has an especially curative effect on skin conditions such as psoriasis, and its bitterness also helps promote digestive system health. Indeed, burdock is a powerful, yet gentle, cleanser of the liver and gallbladder, as well as of the blood and lymph. Read more about burdock root’s medicinal properties in this article



Barberry contains lycbetaine, a compound with anti-tumor activity. Berberis vulgaris is used to correct liver function, relieve liver congestion, and promote bile flow. Thus, it strengthens and cleanses the body via the liver. Barberry also has the power to reduce swelling in an enlarged spleen. It improves the appetite and generally supports the digestive system as a whole. 



Buckthorn works specifically to cure leukemia, and contains anthraquinones which have anti-tumor effects in the treatment of various types of cancer. It should not, however, be used for more than 8 consecutive days without the supervision of a knowledgeable medical practitioner. 

  • Stillingia root or Queen’s Delight root (Stillingia sylvatica) – 10 milligrams


Stillingia root is anesthetic (pain-relieving) and anti-inflammatory and it can help relieve general malaise and lethargy. It is a supportive herb that can help relieve discomfort during the cancer treatment process. 



Prickly ash bark stimulates the circulatory system, the lymphatic system, and mucus membranes, which make it valuable in the holistic treatment of a variety of diseases including cancer. It works to relieve digestive problems as well.



Red clover is a rich source of isoflavones, which can block certain forms of cancer. Red clover is used to cure eczema and psoriasis. Research on red clover has shown that it has anti-cancer activity in animals. Its anti-cancer effects have been attributed by some to the fact that it contains vitamin B17. Read more about the healing effects of red clover in this article



Licorice root has been used globally throughout history. It has effects on the endocrine system and the liver (as well as on other organs). It is widely used in Japan to treat chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis, and also has a long history of use in traditional Chinese herbalism. The root can soften the skin and mucous membranes while reducing inflammation which makes it an excellent treatment for bronchial problems, but it’s also used in conventional medicine to treat peptic ulcers and gastritis. It also supports the adrenal glands and can relieve pain and swelling, especially when combined with red clover

It is best to take the Hoxsey Tonic under the guidance of a qualified medical provider because this herbal formula can cause diarrhea and possibly dehydration. The dehydration could then, in turn, cause an electrolyte imbalance in the body. Further, the buckthorn and cascara sagrada can deplete potassium levels, so it’s wise to be monitored by a professional who can help manage this potential temporary side effect of treatment.

When Lydian and I do research on a disease or disorder, we often find information about cures for other, unrelated diseases and disorders. Every day, we uncover scientific data and anecdotal reports of healing that we organize in several databases that have been our special, private tool that we use to keep track of cures for disease. Recently, we decided to make these databases into searchable tools that our readers can subscribe to as a special, private search engine of science and anecdotes of cures for everything from the common cold to autoimmune diseases and cancer. Currently, there are two databases that are live: The Alternative Medicines Database and the Natural and Essential Oils Database. The Alternative Medicines Database contains links to scientific information about alternative medicine cures for sexual dysfunction and thousands of other diseases including data about herbs, nutrients, salts, Traditional Chinese Medicine remedies, Ayurvedic Medicine Remedies, and just about any cure for disease that doesn't fall into the other Living Database Categories. The Natural and Essential Oils Database distills (no pun intended) scientific data about essential oils to make it easy to find cures for disease that involve these powerful herbal remedies. We include information about rare essential oils that have been studied and we've gone through the effort to put information into the database from scientific articles citing certain essential oils as curative agents for multiple diseases. The search results are often surprising and a source of hope for users. We add to the Living Database of information daily which is why we call it a "Living" Database.
