Another natural treatment stifled. _______________________________________________________________ Folks This is the forum moderator of www.thedcasite.com, which is the site also connected with www.buydca.com. I regret to inform you all that two FDA officials came into our office today and ordered us at www.buydca.com to stop manufacturing and selling DCA. Please note, the buydca.com site will close immediately and we will NO LONGER be taking orders or providing DCA for anyone or anything. www.thedcasite.com will continue for informational purposes only. Please check it for updates soon. Thank you for your participation and please keep up the involvement. _______________________________________________________________ I am adding the following websites for anyone interested in further information. Shemay _______________________________________________________________ http://www.depmed.ualberta.ca/dca/ http://buydca.com/ Shemay Tue, 17 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT I wrote to the FDA with this comment:  "I bought DCA from buyDCA.com and had it tested by a chemist. He found that it was more impure than the industrial grade DCA I bought from a major US supplier." I had also shared this information with buydca.com as well.   stourleyk Sun, 22 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT Hi there,I went to the recommended site and per them they state the following quote below. It makes sense if a body that is acidic is a rich environment for cancer to thrive and this product has to be chemically processed to make it more alkaline (less acidic) that anyone just running out to buy DCA from a chemical company is putting their cancer at risk to only grow and thrive on the acid rich environment that taking this unchanged state of DCA could cause. Pamela Can I find and use DCA on my own?Absolutely not! This can actually be dangerous. For example, DCA can be found in stores selling chemicals to scientific laboratories. Often, DCA is sold in a form that is very acidic and if consumed could cause serious or catastrophic complications. Even for use in animals DCA often has to be processed with chemicals to correct its acidity etc. In addition, the dose in patients with cancer, or its interactions with other medications that cancer patients might be on, are completely unknown.Often, patients with terminal cancer might feel they are in a desperate situation and might be “willing to try anything”. It needs to be remembered that the inappropriate use of these drugs might cause catastrophic complications and make the situation even worse. In addition, if complications occur, because this was not done under the supervision of a physician, this problem will not become known and other patients might be exposed to a risk that could have been prevented.   Pamela TX Sun, 30 Sep 2007 00:00:00 GMT Go to Wikipedia to get the full information on DCA Arnold Thu, 07 Aug 2008 00:00:00 GMT Is DCA a chemical or a naturaly occuring substance?
