look at my new post--will add it in a couple minutes-- vis-a-vis "sugar feeding cancer" It is not that simple --it seems that cancer prefers to use a path to metabolize sugar that does not involve oxygen (as it often outgrows its blood supply and has learned to thrive in anoxic conditions)

It is a remarkable discovery in that noncancer cells get 90% of their energy by the other pathway--sounds like a great target to attack!
