If you’ve made it this far with no cancer, I wouldn’t worry. One sugary soda a day probaly isn’t enough to make any difference.

I don’t think there are percentages for getting cancer (never seen any). The studies are looking at the operations of cancer cells and comparing them to the operations of normal cells. All cancer cells have abnormally high levels of sugar in them. What I’ve read is that cancer cells are fueled by glucose and normal cells are fueled by glucose, ketones, or fat.

Does keeping a low carb diet keep people from getting cancer? I think the answer is it’s possible. Some of these researchers are convinced of it since they’re changed their diet to low carb.

One is good, 5 is better-

Question- are cancer cells only fueled by sugars? Or is it that sugars ‘may help further fuel’ cancer cells? I find it hard to believe that cancer cells couldn’t exist without sugars because we know people who eat no sugars still end up getting cancers
