SLOW CANCER GROWTH BY LOWERING BLOOD AND GUT GLUCOSE
"Cancer cells demonstrate a 3 to 5 fold increase in glucose uptake compared to healthy cells." Demetrakopoulos, GE, Cancer Research, vol.42, p.756S, Feb.1982
“Sugar is the most hazardous foodstuff in the American diet.” Linus Pauling, PhD, twice Nobel laureate
WHAT'S AHEAD? Cancer cells feed almost exclusively on sugar. You can slow tumor growth by: > eating a diet that lowers blood and gut sugar > exercise to burn up any extra glucose in the blood > taking supplements such as chromium, CLA, and gymnema > using medications, if necessary, for better control of diabetes
A moth is attracted to bright light, which can be its own demise if the bright light is a flame. Americans consume 140 pounds of refined sugar per year, mostly in the form of sucrose (white sugar) and corn syrup. Our incidence of obesity, diabetes, and many cancers has escalated parallel to our rise in sugar intake. We consume 15 billion gallons of soft drinks, 2.7 billion Krispy Cremes, and 500 million Twinkies per year. Our appetite for sugar is like a hummingbird sucking on sweet food all day long.
