There’s a lot of confusion around sugar and stomach cancer. Let’s clear things up: 🍎 Both healthy cells and cancer cells use sugar (from carbohydrates) for energy. That includes carbs from fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and even dairy. ❌ Some people believe cutting out all sugar will stop cancer cells from growing—but scientific evidence does not support this. 🥦 If you eat no carbohydrates, your body will break down fat and muscle for energy. This can leave you depleted, especially if you’re already struggling to eat enough. 💡 A very low-carb diet can deprive you of important energy, fibre, and vitamins—things your body needs to stay strong during treatment. ✅ Focus on nourishing yourself with balanced meals. Always talk with your care team before making big dietary changes. #StomachCancerSupport #StomachCancerEducation #StomachCancerAwareness #MyGutFeeling
