For me, the cancer connection with sugar comes from the fact that we have two systems: fat burning or carb burning. Carb burning is one of those short term things you get into when the berries ripen, and when the harvest comes in, and things like that.

But most of the time we wouldn't have enough carbs to be sugar burners. We'd be in ketosis.

Since carbs are not essential, ketosis must be our natural state, and it even builds in an indulgence for the winter solstice holidays 🤣

Maybe the thing is that our sugar burning system is not meant to be something we're in 24/7 & all year.
