Cancer Cells Are Sugar Addicts
Written by Ellen Davis
The science is undeniable: preventing and even reversing cancer could be as simple as altering your diet and depriving the cancer of its favorite food - sugar.
High Fat Healing
Written by Annemarie Colbin, Ph.D.
Our scientific dogma says that the latest research is the closest to the truth; yet as soon as new research comes out, it will be obsolete. This paradigm always ignores context. For example, for the past 15 years it has become assumed truth that a low fat diet is a healthy diet. The same people who thirty years ago used to urge us to eat plenty of meat and cheese, shifted to encourage us towards vegetables and low fat salad dressings.
Cancer & Sugar - Strategy for Selective Starvation of Cancer
Written by Dr. Mark Sircus
Whereas many within the mainstream medical community insist on promoting the belief that the link between certain types of food with an increased risk of cancer is "weak" or only "nominally significant," the scientific evidence continues to accumulate indicating sugar feeds cancer.

Are the Government's Dietary Guidelines Making Us Obese?
Written by Margie King, Health Coach
Since the early 1980’s the USDA Dietary Guidelines have urged Americans to eat a low-fat high-carbohydrate diet for their health and weight control. Since then, there has been an alarming increase in obesity, cancer and diabetes. Could the dietary guidelines be to blame?
