Well everything's a bunch of molecules when you get right down to it. I say they just mix in with some saline, give it a catchy name like "fukitol", and call it a medicine already!
mrdevious Reviewed by mrdevious on . another great canadian milestone. canada researches possible cure for cancer! video the video explains the researching going on for a molecular compound called DCA, or Dichloroacetic acid. It causes cancer cells to commit 'cellular suicide' by shutting down cancer cells mitochondria, therefore cutting off its metabolism and causing the cell to die off. this is a medical breakthrough of such great magnitude. the only problem is its non-patentable and therefore cannot be profited from..so pharmacies wont fund research Rating: 5
