Cure for cancer found.

Found this in the comments section. pretty much sums up my feelings.

Mitochondria is not a cell, first off. I follow a link and come to a website making the broad proclamation that cancer is cured, all of it, by a magic, cheap, widely available drug without any side effects, and then they talk about the human cancer fighting cell called mitochondria. This does not give me much hope for the claims of the article. Mitochondria is indeed in the human body, but it is not a cell, it is a cell organelle, contained in every living cell in your body. If it weren't, you'd be dead, so it's a good thing. It's major purpose isn't fighting cancer, either. It moves energy about in the cell.

Secondly, you present no evidence for your claim that "cancer is cured". The supposed link to the study doesn't actually link to any study in any peer reviewed journal, but instead to a website pushing DCA as a cure for cancer. You provide no examples of peer review for the findings of this supposed study, either. Instead, you just make broad claims about how cancer is cured and the drug companies won't make the drug, and that's why it's not out there.

But, in the same breath, you say the drug IS out there, used to treat other things. If the drug is out there, and it's clear that it cures cancer, oncologists would be PRESCRIBING IT. They can do that, you know, even if the drug isn't intended for cancer. Doctors will rather routinely prescribe drugs already on the market not yet approved for a particular treatment, so long as the evidence supports that it will work for that treatment. Especially for folks who are dying.

The second paragraph about there being no peer reviewed literature is especially important I think. If you are making an extreme claim such as "Cancer is cured", you had better have peer reviewed evidence to back it up. Article would have been more believable if it claimed "New drug shows signs of promise for treating cancer" instead of "New drug cures cancer".
