balancing glucose in the body
Lily, the sweetness of blueberries is a "sugar", and maybe cancer just takes what it needs no matter what sugar you are eating, but personally, I just don't want to provide extra sugar to give the rotten cancer a boost. I eat blueberries too because they are good resources for antioxidants.
I agree with some others here who have said that it may be important not to eat sweet things in a way that results in wide swings of glucose levels in the body. If you are eating sweet things that are more balanced in terms of fiber like blueberries, it doesn't cause your body to go overboard trying to process that sugar like it would if you are taking in high-sugar/carb foods like a sugared doughnut.
