Hello and thank you for submitting your question. I am sorry to hear about the health of your sister. It is true that sugar/glucose is the main source of fuel for cells, malignant or benign. Unfortunately, in the case of malignancies, the cells' growth is more influenced by other factors (mutations in growth genes, response to chemical signals). In your sisters case, she would very likely benefit the most from a consultation with a medical professional (nutritionist or physician) who can assess & balance her needs for carboy Chat Doctor.
