_AI hear ‘sugar feeds cancer’ every day
Not only is this factually incorrect, it also causes so much unnecessary food fear
As a two time breast cancer survivor who cut out ALL SUGAR the first time, I’ve studied the proven research.
Truth: ⬇️
* Sugar itself does not cause cancer. Eating a cookie or ice-cream will not trigger cancer growth.
* All cells in your body, both healthy and cancer cells, use glucose (sugar) for energy — but cancer cells don’t “feed” on sugar more than normal cells.
* The real issue is EXCESS added sugar which can lead to weight gain, obesity and diabetes, proven risk factors for cancer, according to the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) and American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR).
I created an entire ebook on sugar and cancer and how to enjoy your favorite treats in moderation. Comment ’SUGAR’ and I’ll send it straight to your inbox.
