You don’t have to be diabetic to have a high risk of cancer. But starving your body of sugars and bad carbs that turn to sugars keep cells in better shape to fight cancer cells. So it makes sense.
It seems like a win-win-win for a diabetic with cancer (who will often also be obese) - reducing sugar and carbohydrates will address all three issues. What amazes me is the notion (speculative on my part, based on what I saw in a single patient) that a person who eats low-carbohydrate diet over a prolonged period may still have elevated blood sugar due to a metabolism that turns ingested protein or fat into glucose. How big of an effect is this? I don't know

It could be “diet” drinks and “low fat” stuff that actually makes it into sugar
