"New DCA study with negative results"
 
   They talk of DCA not working as well in an hypoxia environment and actually promoting cancer growth in some hypoxia affected areas of a tumor.

How relevant is this? How often will a tumor have hypoxic areas where DCA would be a tumor promoter?

I wouldn't worry that much about this study. First, it isn't in humans. Second, when a tumor becomes hypoxic that is generally because of lack of blood supply to the tumor, so there wouldn't be much DCA getting there anyway. I think we should focus on the reports out of Medicor, and this forum - because those are the places that are reporting about DCA use in people, not lab animals.

Best wishes,
Sandra
