Sugar and Cancer?

🍪Eating sugar does not fuel cancer. Here’s why -

There is often an argument that sugar fuels cancer because PET scans use a small amount of radioactive tracer (usually a form of glucose) to detect cancer cells.🤨

✅This is truth - but here’s what you need to know.

That radioactive tracer is taken up by all cells that are using a lot of energy. This includes places with cancer but also places like your brain.🧠

Cancer cells are actively using more energy in your body. But even if you deprive yourself of any sugar (none at all) cancer will find other another fuel source to grow.

❌Eating more sugar does not fuel cancer
❌Eating less sugar does not slow cancer

But here is what ABSOLUTELY does make a difference.

Maintaining a healthy body weight! 💪🏻

There is a strong link between maintaining a healthy body weight and reducing your risk of cancer. That science is clear. 💡

Obviously, sugar can contribute unnecessary calories. Leading to weight gain. Therefore increasing your risk of cancer.

However, if you are able to maintain your body weight while eating moderate amount sugar than it is completely safe. 💫

Are you a doctor?
Have you won a battle against cancer?
Why are you saying this?

So then why do they attach glucose to the contrast when doing a PET scan, and tell the patient not to eat sugar and carbs the day before the scan? 🤔
