For some individuals they can be ok, but not the best foods in general!

Yes, I would recommend avoiding the honey and maple syrup. If you are very metabolically healthy, you might do 2-3 higher carb meals a week and be sure to get a lot of exercise on a regular basis so your body is able to handle the carb load from those 2-3 meals and store it as muscle glycogen.

Thank you for your reply – I see what you mean re soya and of course those poor cows are fed with any old rubbish that will keep hem alive and producing. This is terrifying – I cannot believe that food is sprayed with xenoestrogens! I am now 100% organic as well as the vegan that I have been for years.
Your mother is so lucky to have someone to take care of her to this extent. I wish you both the best of luck.

We started in lowering our carbohydrate intake (no more pasta, rice, white and whole grain bread, spaghetti, cereals, etc.). However should the list also include sourdough bread (no sugar content)?

Thank you Inogen! FYI to share what I’ve learned, the breast cancer my mother has is Estrogen Receptor positive meaning the cancer feeds on estrogen to my understanding, so she’s staying away from all soy (tofu) & anything else with hormones (dairy & non-organic fruits & veggies). Another thing I learned, the pesticides sprayed onto non-organic foods contains xenoestrogens which mimic estrogen and add to the hormone count, so we’re going all organic too.

Thanks for engaging with me! Much love to you!

Thank you!

Sorry to hear about your mother, yes she should stop eating any processed sugars. Natural sugars are better but should be kept in moderation!

My mother has metastatic breast cancer & we’re educating ourselves outside of the allopathic model.

Question for you on sugar:
Should my mother stop eating sugar altogether? Or is the natural sugar of fruits & vegetables okay to continue consuming? We’re confused on whether additive & processed sugars feeds cancer vs natural sugars.

Thank you!
