DR. ANTHONY CHAFFEE: You eat breakfast carbs and a whole bunch of carbs and some fruit juice, and some fruit, or whatever, you have 5 hours . . . you just shut down your bacterial immune system.

                               You eat breakfast carbs and a whole bunch of carbs and some fruit juice, and some fruit, or whatever, you have 5 hours . . . you just shut down your bacterial immune system.  And after 5 hours, it's still only half effective.  Then at lunch you have some more of this stuff.  Then you have more of this stuff.  So basically your entire day your immune system is impaired.  You don't need to eat 1 gram of glucose or fructose.  You don't need a single gram.  But who can do this in a healthy respect where it will cause no damage?  No one.

SAMA HOOLE: Starve the tumour of sugar while healthy cells switch contentedly to fat, the theory goes, and you have a line of attack with no hair falling out and no poison in the drip.

from Sama Hoole,

Cancer cells gorge on glucose and an amino acid called glutamine. The fuel they struggle to run on is ketones, the very fuel a body makes once you strip the carbohydrate away. Starve the tumour of sugar while healthy cells switch contentedly to fat, the theory goes, and you have a line of attack with no hair falling out and no poison in the drip.
