Meh, not so much. Sugar doesn't cause cancer as it doesn't damage cells. We are unhealthy not so much from sugar as the high fructose corn syrup they put into everything, which your body does NOT process the same as natural sugars from fruit, let alone can sugar.
My bf is a type 2 diabetic. We noticed this right away when I asked him to document what he ate and I began giving him different things and checking his blood sugar. Fruit is perfectly fine dispite what his doctor said. We also noticed my homemade bread didn't hit as hard as grocery store bread - even the fancy stuff.
Anything with corn syrup/'corn sugar' is awful. His blood sugar stays up forever. Same thing with potatoes (seems to be specific to him, everyone is different). Even if I give him something made with palm sugar or honey his bs goes down more quickly than corn syrup.
I have high fasting blood sugar due to my thyroid issues and have found having fruit before bed actually helps a lot. Might just be tricking my liver, who knows.
It's Hashimoto's. I take iodine every day along with low dose naltrexone, metformin, and desiccated bovine thyroid. I live in a state where I can order my own bloodwork, so I can fix myself. I just wish my bf distrusted doctors as much as I do.

Look up the iodine project from Dr. David Brownstein and Guy Abraham for thyriod issues.
