It's as simple as that, cancer feeds and grows off of sugar and uses it as it's main food source in the body. This theory was developed back in 1924 by Dr. Otto Warburg, a Nobel Prize winning cell biologist, and published in his 1924 paper "On Metabolism of Tumors". In fact, some new/alternative therapies for treating cancer involve starving the body of all sugar and carbohydrates, then feeding the patient a "smartbomb" sort of cancer drug. This treatment is covered with a special coating that stays intact in the body until it reaches an area of no oxygen. Since cancer is an anaerobic (no oxygen) mass of cells, the oncologists were able to specifically target it through the use of this drug. Unfortunately, there has been little further research made available on this type of care, so we are left with our traditional types of chemotherapy, which are incredibly toxic and hard on the body.
So what should you do?
Be smart about your sugar and carbohydrate intake on a daily basis. While they do provide us with energy, sugar and carbs provide virtually no nutritive benefit, and processed sugars (HFCS, white sugar, etc.) are the worst offenders in this category. Natural sugars from fruits, vegetables, honey and molasses are a good part of a healthy diet and play an important role in providing us with the energy we need to get through the day, but we have to be thinking: ALL THINGS IN MODERATION! Sugar does not cause cancer, but if it enables it to grow, why would you give it the fuel it needs to proliferate? So if you are unfortunate enough to be diagnosed with cancer, you need to make the best decisions you can about what you feed your body, so do your research and give yourself the best chance you can to fight it off!
