I read your original post about this and as a result did some "Googling" on my own. The author of this article is correct about at least one thing, the internet is definately abuzz about it but sadly that doesn't give it any credence.

As someone who has watched loved ones die of cancer and hasn't everyone? I hope that this will come to a positive outcome.

My sister is a Phd. in molecular science and this was her response.

The original research study that this article cites (Cancer Cell) is very highly regarded. I will have to read the primary paper to see how rigorous of a study was conducted. If the laboratory results are real and reproducible, it will still take many years to prove clinical safety and efficacy in the setting of oncology. Lots of drugs kill cells in culture but then fail in the clinical setting. I see this happen every day. It is an interesting premise for a new therapeutic target in cancer treatment, though. I am certainly intrigued.

We had the Industrial revolution, and then the Information Revolution. Then we mapped DNA.

The Health Revolution is up next. I am convinced of this. What will fuel it is the baby boomer's going into retirement combined with the sky rocketing cost of health care

Nevertheless,I have heard of several cures that are just around the corner. They are all in either the final phase (which I believe is 5 years) before they are released to the public. However, there is another one that will be released to the public soon. I just happen to know this from a very good inside source.

Just think about this way the cures that are about to come out in the next few years were found with computers that had Windows 95, 98, and perhaps ME. Computers were still kind of limited compared to what they are today. So its only going to get better.

I am convinced without a doubt that by the time our grandkids become functional Adults. Cures for disease, etc....will be like getting toilet paper at the local grocery story.

Its amazing how far we have come in the last 100 years!

H.pylori was poohpoohed as just a quack's mutterings for many years and now is being used to date history; small insights sometimes light up the world.

"Trichloroethylene is a colorless liquid which is used as a solvent for cleaning metal parts. Drinking or breathing high levels of trichloroethylene may cause nervous system effects, liver and lung damage, abnormal heartbeat, coma, and possibly death."

I guess im a dead man walking!

In the 50s I breathed and probably ate a lot of it, still love the smell of it.

DCA goes after cancer in an entirely new way. The drug is easy to make, cheap and has shown to have no toxicity (despite trying to tie it to the toxicity of some other completely different chemical in the article above.)

Obviously clinical trials in humans are required. Medicine is based on double-blind studies that are replicated time and again by other researchers.

But this little chemical might turn out to be THE Cure.

Which is why the deputy chief medical officer for the American Cancer Society seems to be so against it. He'd be out of a job. Instead he should be leading a huge clinical trial to see if the plague of our modern times can be cured finally.
