"there was a relationship between increased pancreatic cancer risk and 
higher intakes of sugar, candy, honey and jam."

In the US, corn fructose syrup is the #1 source of sugar.  Insulin spikes are very harmful.

And the Okinawans do use honey:

"Lean and fit, Toguchi jokes that the key to his long life is a special drink he takes before bed: a mixture of garlic, honey, turmeric and aloe poured into awamori, the local distilled liquor.

"
