I came to say the same thing. It seems to me that grape juice would simply make for a different set of problems.

Possibky zero. Your body produces plenty of sugars even if you don’t eat any, because your brain and other parts need them to function. What’s unclear to me is how much sugar cancers need to thrive and if the baseline your body naturally produces isn’t already above that line.

Your body produces a tiny amount of sugar compared to what people eat in a typical day. Trying to find numbers now.
