Must try harder mate. Cancer cells usually grow quickly, multiplying at a fast rate, and that requires a lot of energy. That means they need lots of glucose. Here’s where the myth that sugar fuels cancer was born: if cancer cells need lots of glucose, then cutting sugar out of our diet must help stop cancer growing, and could even stop it developing in the first place, right? Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. All of our healthy cells need glucose too, and there’s no way of telling our bodies to let healthy cells have the glucose they need without also giving it to cancer cells. And cancer cells also need lots of other nutrients too, like amino acids and fats; it’s not just sugar they crave.

Well why don't they inject fats or amino acids in with the dye then? The body produces glucose itself,it doesn't need extra glucose coming in. You know for a fact that it's not wise to eat sugar if you get diagnosed with cancer,you just don't want to admit your wrong mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Goly 1,823 Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 Wrong again. There’s no evidence that following a “sugar-free” diet lowers the risk of getting cancer, or that it boosts the chances of surviving if you are diagnosed. And following severely restricted diets with very low amounts of carbohydrate could damage health in the long term by eliminating foods that are good sources of fibre and vitamins. This is particularly important for cancer patients, because some treatments can result in weight loss and put the body under a lot of stress. So poor nutrition from restrictive diets could also hamper recovery, or even be life-threatening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Francie, 2,485 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 This is comedy gold,there's that many contradictions I don't know were to start Overview +4 Yes, research shows that eating sugar does not make cancer grow faster. However, a diet high in sugar can lead to weight gain, which may increase the risk of developing some cancers. Explanation All cells, including cancer cells, use glucose (sugar) for energy. The body stores sugar to use as energy later. Cancer cells consume more sugar than normal cells. However, eating more sugar does not make cancer cells grow faster. Depriving cancer cells of sugar does not make them grow more slowly. Tips to reduce sugar intake Limit sugary drinks like soda, sports drinks, and fruit juice Limit sweets like candy, cookies, ice cream, and pastries Choose whole fruit instead of fruit juice Choose whole grains like whole wheat bread and pasta instead of refined grains Other cancer risk factors Obesity is associated with an increased risk of developing several types of cancer. Eating too much sugar can also lead to weight gain and increase the risk of diabetes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Francie, 2,485 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 It's says getting fat increases your risk of getting cancer,an how does one get fat,eating carbs which is sugar.

What it is clearly saying is that eating excessive sugar can lead to weight gain and obesity which increases the risk of cancer.

Francie, 2,485 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 Say I eat over the recommended daily calories,say 4000. So 4000 in any carbs,breads pasta etc Vs 4000 calories in protein an saturated fat,who going to get fat? Answers on a postcard Quote Link to post Share on other sites
