Sugar Connection revealed the secret of children’s cancer, doctor said – now the method of treatment will change

A new research has come to light regarding the treatment of cancer. Researchers have recently discovered a previously unknown weakness in Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer. This research can completely change the direction of cancer treatment in the future. In fact, according to experts, MPNST cancer cells rely heavily on PPP for sugar metabolism. This process protects cancer cells from oxidative stress. Due to which it survives and grows rapidly. When researchers stopped this metabolic process, tumor growth slowed down and the effect of chemotherapy increased. Regarding this, experts say that we have entered a new era of cancer research. Now the treatment is not only better but is also being prepared according to the weakness of each type of cancer.

How did the method of treatment change?

This new research is being considered a major turning point in cancer treatment. According to experts, now the focus is not just on eliminating cancer cells, but on stopping the biological pathways that allow it to grow. According to experts, identification of PPP as a metabolic bottleneck in MPNST is a major achievement. This may also open the way for new medicines in the future. This will make cancer treatment easier for children and adults.

Misconceptions about sugar and diet

Experts have also made it clear that this research does not mean that cancer can be controlled by completely removing sugar from the diet of children. Experts told that this is laboratory research, it would be wrong to apply it directly to the diet. Children suffering from cancer are already victims of malnutrition, so lack of essential nutrients can have a negative impact on their health and recovery. Regarding this, experts advise that before changing any kind of diet or treatment, one should consult an oncologist. Because the disease, treatment and health of every child is different. In such a situation, only a balanced diet can help in recovery and increasing immunity.
