There were no numbers. The article was written by a guy who was touting supplements etc. The link was sent to me by my husband's cousin who is a nuceutical salesman (and the article sounded very charlitan to me) but the premise of boosting the red count to increase physiological oxygenation sounded reasonable. However, Procrit's own label states otherwise and they make the drug. The article/link was sent to me over 2 years ago but I am trying to look for it.
