As a librarian,

I always start with research, with a focus on legitimate sites (Sloan Kettering is esp good for alt therapies).  I couldn't find anything I would consider "legitimate" on this substance.  Anything anecdotal online is automatically suspect for me, as anyone can say anything on the 'net, and it could easily be fake.  Many alt therapies have been researched at least a bit, and you can usually come up with some studies, but there doesn't seem to be anything at all on this one.

My search was pretty cursory, however, so you might have better luck.  I would proceed with caution until you can get more info.  Anything that can change the chemistry of the body enough to fight cancer has the potential for side effects, and I would want to know about those before I tried anything like this.  Wouldn't want to make myself sicker accidentally!

I would account the powder as a very high priced multimineral formula, incomplete for our purposes.  Short of anemia that we couldn't solve with high dose natural folates, vitamin C, B12, liver and bone marrow, we avoid supplements with iron.  My wife uses lots more magnesium sulfate in her IV vitamin C for vein comfort, as well as oral potassium salts for washout by sodium ascorbate.  Lots of vegetables would help the potassium intake more than this formula.  Many people use more zinc.  The manganese is higher than we usually use.  

About the Rhomanga tablets, folic acid is simply incompatible with 5FU, and personally I strongly favor the natural folate in general as the proper vitamin instead of folic acid.  Also we prefer methyl cobalamin, an active form B12, to cyanocobalamin that requires gastric conversion.  The supplemental vitamin and bioflavonoids are much lower dose than what we buy generically. We prefer L-Se-methylselenocysteine (SeMSC) for 200-400 mcg of selenium. 

We used the Life Extension cancer protocols for supplements as a starting point, with inexpensive sources.

I looked it up yesterday.  I

I looked it up yesterday.  I did not read anything credible on Percy's powder.   There are many other suplements like this on the market.   I would be careful of anything that tells one it cures!   Suplements do not cure anything!  Suplements aid the imune system, build up strength, etc....  Another red flag for Percy's Power.

 

Best Always,  mike

 

PS   Most machines like Rife, Water ion generators, etc... are a waste of time and money also.
