What Is Sugar S Role In Cancer Development?

Do the sugars that are in red wines, feed or support the possibility of reoccurrences of cancer with someone that recently had breast cancer, and had surgery to remove the tumor, and chemotherapy and radiation treatments, after the surgery? Could these sugars increase the possibility of a reoccurrence of the cancer?
