Conclusive studies on " no sugar"? or no carb? or "low" sugar/carb?

Sorry, I'm not jumping on the guilt trip train re my diet for the past 75 years!!

Ditto

Of course there are benefits to not eating donuts and cheeseburgers on the couch all week.

But the problem with a lot of these studies is the group studied was not limited to people with Advanced Prostate Cancer (the name of this forum). So these types of studies that are including people that never had cancer in the first place makes the degree of potential long-term benefit to pre-existing PCa patients more questionable than for people that are cancer-free to begin with (and trying to avoid ever getting it.) Diet and exercise aren't cures.

But if people with recurring cancer want to live the rest of what life they have left eating celery sticks... to each their own.

Been working on the thin and muscular for a while now and no real huge impact but at my age I may just have to settle for fit and flabby.

No sugar? Meaning NO whole fruit?

No white sugar, but if you ask any diabetic they are very careful with fruit as well and they try to eat it at the end of a lunch or with something fat to lower their GI and avoid a sugar spike…but of course refined sugar is the enemy! 😀

Gotcha. I eat a lot of fruit, generally with peel, but almost always following a full, usually high fiber meal. Still, I've wondered if Ii should eat loss. Hasn't had any negative effects over 5.5 years. I'm not diabetic.

No worries, the only thing ANY diet has in common with other diets, no matter if carnivore vegan or other, is no simple sugar (especially white) and super processed food
