Summary
Dichloroacetate (sodium DCA) was taken at 333 mg twice daily, alongside fursultiamine, nicotinamide riboside and ubiquinol, for about two weeks at the time of posting. The account does not state prior illness duration or severity. After roughly two weeks the person reported "this thing appears to work," naming it and the three co-supplements as the combination with the most noticeable effect among everything tried. No further follow-up is given beyond that two-week point, so whether the benefit lasted is unknown.
What they credit
Credits CoQ10 / ubiquinol, Dichloroacetate (DCA), NAD+ boosters (NMN, nicotinamide riboside, NADH, ATP).
