The Truth About Sugar, Cancer, and PET Scans I completely understand where this misconception comes from, and I appreciate the opportunity to clear it up. The idea that "sugar feeds cancer" is a widespread myth, often misunderstood because of PET scans. Here’s what’s actually happening: When someone undergoes a PET scan, they are typically given a radiotracer called fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)—which is a glucose-based compound. This tracer helps identify areas of high metabolic activity in the body. Since cancer cells tend to grow and divide more rapidly than normal cells, they often consume more glucose. That’s why the tracer accumulates in tumors and makes them “light up” on the scan. However, this does not mean that eating sugar directly fuels cancer growth. The body regulates blood sugar levels very tightly, and all cells—including healthy ones—use glucose for energy. Completely eliminating sugar from your diet will not "starve" cancer, but it could deprive healthy cells of essential energy. Cancer is a complex disease influenced by many factors, including genetics, inflammation, hormones, and overall diet quality—not just sugar intake. While excessive sugar consumption can contribute to obesity and insulin resistance, which are risk factors for cancer, sugar itself does not directly "feed" cancer in the way that people assume from PET scans. The Bottom Line: PET scans work by detecting increased glucose metabolism, but this does not mean sugar is the cause of cancer growth. A well-balanced, nutrient-rich diet is the best approach for overall health, rather than focusing on eliminating sugar entirely. Say goodbye to confusion and uncertainty.
