1 - Does Sugar Feed Cancer?

This FIRST episode of The Cancer Dietitian Podcast dives right into the most common cancer nutrition question that I get. Listen to the show to find out how I explain this somewhat complex topic to my clients.

I also explain the difference between simple sugars and complex carbohydrates, what makes something a "healthy carb", why you SHOULD eat carbohydrates for optimal body function, plus tips on which simple sugars to cut back on.

In typical "Julie style", this episode is full of the practical, evidence-based nutrition information that you crave. With none of the sensationalism, guilt or pseudoscience. Get your info from the expert!
