    "Findings challenge common wisdom about sugars"

    This was published by Reuters in August 2010.  In summary:  while both glucose and fructose feed cancer cells, it's fructose that makes the cells proliferate.

    "Now the team hopes to develop a drug that might stop tumor cells from making use of fructose."

    Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to train people not to use fructose instead?
