Hmmm

As always the story ends when once we find out how. Translation "once we find out how to patent something and make money" then and only then will the public get access. You see modern medicine is much more concerned with the process rather than the outcome. It is all about the money. The fact that something works is irrelevant. It cannot be patented, it is discarded, or worse hidden away.

You can get and use DCA. I have used it for a year. I have had two tumor reductions and 4 stable disease, no change in tumor size in 6 CT scans over the last year. I am fine and have no symptoms from my metastatic colon cancer. I have had no chemo other than DCA. It works for me.

Where do you get it from, and what dose are you taking? We are looking into using DCA for my husband's brain tumor.

I would also like to know if this is something that can help my daughter. She has a right temporal lobe astrocytoma [brain tumor]. She had an operation to remove it in 2007 and it was not successful. She may have also been exposed to CJD while on the operating table. Her tumor has now just shown signs of early progression (where they operated). Is this something that could help my daughter. Please help me find a way to save her.

Not sure?! I KNOW that DCA does not work well with sarcoma's??? BUT it kicks the snot out of all other cancers! My wife is part of the U of A human trials and in 4 months she has seen 45% regression with just DCA and vitamins B1, "greens", pommagranate extract. green tea extract, vit C and and calcium...NO SUGAR NO FRUIT NO SUGAR NO FRUIT..
