Unfortunately, in so doing the sugars are concentrated, which can cause our blood sugar levels to change more rapidly than normal, allowing swings in sugar levels that can cause symptoms (fatigue, irritability, appetite and many others)

None of those reasons is mentioned in your cancer institute link, they don't seem to matter.
They only thing they say is that you shouldn't eat much sugar if the cancer patient has problems when he has a dry mouth.
