Sugar is cancer food.

If you have cancer, and you go to the doctor and they want to amp the cancer up so they can medically image it most clearly before removal or treatment, they give you glucose. Which is sugar.

Which makes sense, because it requires no metabolism chain to use unlike starches or protein, sugar is energy ready to use for any bacteria or microorganism that wants it. That's why people get an instant burst of energy when they eat a bunch of sugar. But that's also why it feeds cancer and why foods that take longer to metabolize are better for you in general.
