This is all over the scientific forums, including sites like Reddit. The bottom line is this - after about 100 years of denial, modern science finally seems to be admitting that the Warburg Effect is a cause of cancer and not just a result/symptom/sign. The study goes on to discuss how inhibiting glycolysis through various compounds (2-DG, DCA, etc) which Ray has written about before, inhibits tumor growth and can be a reliable treatment for cancer.
Now, let's see if this results in any meaningful therapies for cancer or if things will go on as usual.
