There's no question. Remove the methyl so the genes that are normally supposed to suppress cancer cells can come alive and do what they're meant to do. Honestly, I don't know what the RNA interference is, but to me, I would want those genes that suppress cancer cells especially since all the women in my family tested + for the BRCA gene. Rare, I know but those are the facts. So We'd all like to see something that stop those nasty cells and genes. Blessings.
