From the sound of your question, I would assume that your friend has been diagnosed with cancer. Although the Caisse formula is non-lethal to humans, it's made up from making a tea from natural roots, etc. Those familiar with Essiac tea know the purpose is allegedly to help alleviate the symptoms of cancer in humans, or to create the "effects" of cancer on the human system so that the body can build defenses against the disease.
My main concern would be that there may be certain chemical compounds contained in the final mixture which could be harmful to your pet. Unless you could determine a full list of individual chemical substances and then check them against a reliable source, you could inadvertently feed your pet a lethal poison.
My advice to you is to follow the adage, "When in doubt, don't". Besides, the "tea" is expensive to make, doesn't smell all that great and the taste isn't worth writing about.
It's been about 15 years since my last experiences with the formula, and other than offering someone hope for a miracle cure, my personal opinion is that it's ineffective when dealing with cancer related issues.
