I think it’s more an example that sugar FEEDS cancer...I have a shirt tail relative who just died of lung cancer (quit smoking over 17 years ago). Interestingly , her oncologist, at the time of her diagnosis about 7 months ago, told her to stop eating sugar as it could lengthen her life...she chose not to.

Yes, I understand that is the case, but did the oncologist tell her how much longer she would have lived? Also what was the extent of her cancer In the lungs? Just a spot in one lobe? Spread to the lymphs?

The problem is that there are very likely people who continue eating sugar after having lung or any kind of cancer, who go on to beat it, or to live the amount of time ‘specified’ by their doc more or less- so this might contradict the claim that sugar feeds it, while others who continue eating sugar get sicker and die sooner - but another problem is that even a percentage of people who quit sugar will get sicker and die sooner too)

Again I have to go back to the % thing- 1-15% Meh- Not giving up sugar just because I might have an 8% greater chance of dying a few months earlier

It’s really all a matter of Degrees I think-
