THIS sugar supercharges the immune system against cancer
Researchers at the Van Andel Institute discovered a sweet twist in cancer treatment. Glucose enhances the cancer-fighting abilities of T cells. Glucose helps T cells communicate internally. It also aids in building molecules essential for fighting cancer. These molecules are glycosphingolipids (GSLs). GSLs help T cells grow and produce proteins to combat cancer.
