Is anyone taking DCA (DICHLOROACETATE) to boost the energy?

Side effects listed seem to indicate the opposite and that it is not a drug that you would want to self prescribe.

Searching on the www shows most sites referring to a " daunting list of side effects".

The potential benefits of DCA, with or without aerobic training, must be weighed against the potential side-effects of the drug. There were numerous adverse reports during the course of the chronic phase of the study that were directly attributable to DCA, including increased fatigue, shortness of breath, episodes of vomiting and/or gastrointestinal distress, and increased incidence of tremors,.....

The side effects reported by users (taken from our survey to-date), include:

peripheral neuropathy (tingling in the fingers)

numbness in toes or fingers

shaking or tremors in hands

weakness in legs

mild nausea

swollen ankles

more urination

dizziness

anxiety

depression

sleepy

breathing heavier than usual

tingling (neuropathy) in the lips

With the use of the DCA-Caffeine-B1 protocol we are seeing a whole new set of effects. These effects appear to be TLS, as the symptoms are appearing much sooner than typically seen with DCA alone. Sleepiness, fatigue, weak legs and balance issues are sometimes reported.

Thanks for replying to my question. I personally know two patients with lymphoma who tried DCA and swear by the positive results they received from using it. You can also read about the testimonial of the patients who used it but I am not sure what impact DCA might have on CLL cells.

Warm regards.

How does one get DCA?

[shazie in reply to Tfosa]

This is a very old post. Last time I checked, there is a place in NY City that sells DCA in pills form. This has to be monitored by a knowledgeable physician. Do not try it on your own. It used to be easier to get this product in Canada. This is the place in New York:
