Everything you eat either fights disease or feeds it. Did you know that sugar is like fuel for cancer? Cancer feeds off sugar therefore fueling rapid growth of cancer cells. Cancer cells uptake sugar at 10-12 times the rate of healthy cells.
The most simple forms of sugar are single molecule sugars, like glucose and fructose. This is why refined carbs like white sugar, white flour, soft drinks, etc should be limited or avoided for anyone with cancer.
(There is also evidence that some cancer cells feed on amino acids or lipids.)
Understanding how your body works and what works best for it are SO important. Help your body fight against illness and disease by feeding it things that support it.
