Here's another issue with many different opinions that I'm grappling with. We all know that sugar (especially white sugar) is bad for cancer. But what about fruits or anything that contains glucose or fructose? The idea I have read about is that cancer cells feed on glucose, therefore anything with glucose will feed cancer cells and should be avoided. Although there are some exceptions, such as the Brandt Grape Cure, in which the cancer patient goes into a fast of nothing but concord grapes. In this case, the grapes are meant to carry their many cancer-killing nutrients together with glucose to the cancer cells. The cancer cells are tricked into eating the glucose, and at the same time, the cancer-killing nutrients that they carry. It's like a Trojan Horse strategy. However, the author suggests that this should be done as a fast and it would not be good to eat grapes if you are not fasting with them.

What are your thoughts on eating fruits, honey, etc. not as a pure fast but taken with other foods as part of a cancer patient's regular diet?

Glucose is not the only sugar cancer cells can feed on.  They can also feed on fructose. 

The Grape Cancer Cure helps because the grapes are rich in phytoestrogens that help block the cancer promoting effects of real estrogens and xenoestrogens.  The sugars are not transporters for phytoestrogens though.

Even though cancer feeds on sugar simply cutting out sugars from the diet is not going to stop the cancer.  The reason is that glucose is so essential to the body that if glucose levels drop too low the body will simply generate its own glucose.  Therefore, the rational behind not consuming sugar with cancer is actually not going overboard with sugar sources that will spike the blood glucose levels.
