There are some misnomers.

Normal sugar is not carcinogenic. It breaks down in the same way bread, or any carb does. The volume is also not necessarily an issue in the vacuum, at least not with something like refined sugar added to foods. Insulin releases can wreak havoc on the body and weakens your immune systems, but that isn't a recipe for it on its own.

Testing and studies judge that yes, cancer does consume sugar as part of its growth, but your statement that ketones will somehow negate cancer is false and dangerous, as that isn't accurate.

A ketogenic diet is a good supplemental change, but cancer does more than consume sugar to grow and spread. It consumes everything else too. Depriving it of sugar won't get rid of it or "negate" it, it'll slow it down.

The hope is that you slow it down in conjunction with other treatments to either last long enough to beat it or to prolong your life if you can't.

"Vegetable oils" are also a misnomer, as when we talk about "vegetable oils", we are actually talking about the likes of literal vegetable oil, which is a combination of gross seed oils and additives that are bad for you, and bad for your heart.

If you got the vaccine, your consumption of sugar or lackthereof isn't going to give you cancer, nor will not consuming it prevent it. It is solely a mechanism of foreign / nefarious substances entering your body, and how your body either metabolizes those substances or doesn't.

I want to reiterate as the person who always rants about how good keto is here:

Sugar is not evil. Sugar does not kill you on its own. Sugar is a part of our diets in every fashion. Every carb breaks down into glucose. A fruit has the same sugar as sugar. Honey is just sugar. Alcohol is just sugar.

A carb is a carb. It's the introduction of chemicals, modifying the sugar in some way, or how much of it you consume that is the biggest problem.

We had refined sugar for literally centuries before obesity became a large scale problem. Obesity coincides with the introduction of chemically modified sugars and sugars condensed into dense, highly caloric syrups that our bodies metabolize in a very short time, all at once.

TL;DR: Sugar not bad. Source matters (fructose, sucrose, which is actual sugar, synthetic added glucose, aspartame, Ace K, sucralose, Saccharin, so on, etc.) Volume matters when it's just sugar, like a soda or dessert. Keto is just the "easiest" way to avoid it. But ketosis is not an "I just feel like it" diet. If you drink alcohol, you won't maintain ketosis; that's sugar. If you want a dessert sometimes, no ketosis. Sugar. Pasta? Sugar. Bread? Sugar. Honey? Sugar. Fruits, grapes, etc.? Most of them are just sugar. Our bodies don't care about where the sugar comes from. It all becomes glucose.

Also, on a ketogenic diet, you cannot escape glucose. Your brain needs glucose. It will synthesize it from protein (gluconeogenesis) so if your macros are not controlled to a reasonable extent, an over consumption of protein will cause excess glucose synthesis which means an insulin release which means..no ketosis.
