Myth: People who have cancer shouldn't eat sugar, since it can cause cancer to grow faster. Fact: More research is needed to understand the relationship between sugar in the diet and cancer. All kinds of cells, including cancer cells, depend on blood sugar (glucose) for energy. But giving more sugar to cancer cells doesn't make them grow faster.

Understanding Cancer. Cancer is not one disease, but a collection of related diseases that can occur almost anywhere in the body. At its most basic, cancer is a disease of the genes in the cells of our body. Genes control the way our cells work. But, changes to these genes can cause cells to malfunction, causing them to grow and divide when

A sporadic (occurs by chance) cell change or mutation is usually what causes childhood cancer. In adults, the type of cell that becomes cancerous is usually an epithelial cell. Epithelial cells line the body cavity and cover the body surface. Cancer occurs from environmental exposures to these cells over time.

Certain inherited mutations in genes like BRCA1 and BRCA2 raise the risk of several cancers, including breast, ovarian and prostate tumors. But a BRCA mutation isn't a cancer guarantee. Between 45% to 85% of BRCA carriers will get cancer — but that means that in 55% to 15% of cases, a BRCA mutation doesn't cause cancer.

It's important to remember that we have come a long way - overall, cancer survival in the UK has doubled in the last 40 years. In the 1970s only 25% of people with cancer would survive 10 years or more after their diagnosis. Today that figure is 50%. But cancer is a complex disease - and the fact is that we won't ever find one single cure.
