Most of these studies are done in petri dishes. The reactions of cancer to sugars in the body is probably a little different. If I had cancer I'd probably try to have a near zero carb diet though.
[[Basically that article says that cancer cells run on various carbohydrates.]]
Do they run on it (as in they can not run if they aren’t exposed to it) or do they simply have an increased ability to multiply? and if so, what %?
I’m a % guy- 1-2-3 % not a worry to me- 10-15% Starting to become a little worrying, but not enough for me to change- 20-40% Yeah- I take it seriously
I don’t need a zero % in order to feel safe- (or safer I should say) I’ve aslready lived 12 years past the average lifespan of folks decades ago- when the average age was quite young- so anything from here on out is a bonus in my book, and I’ve determined I am not going to be hard-lined reckless, but I’m also not going to give up the last pleasures I have (Sugar- Pepsi) just to gain a 1-15% or so increased change of surviving cancer- Some might disagree with me, but that’s fine- I’ve made my mind up I’m going to enjoy life a bit while I have it, and when it ends, my fault or not, I’ll have lived enjoying it a little more than I would have by giving up sugar and feeling just as crappy as I do now and having to actually live a few more years of feeling crappy with No enjoyment of sugar thrown in to boot-
bottom lien for me I guess is 1-15% or so Meh- I’ll roll the dice- 20-40% or more- I’ll give it an effort- Begrudgingly
I’m actually trying to get as low as I can with carbs. I’ve cut my intake down to probably 20g a day and am trying to go lower (got to learn to drink coffee without sugar.) I’ve lost 25 lbs and feel pretty good.
