I’ve been reading articles about this rise in colon cancer in adults under 50 and wanted to devote a post to spread awareness and encourage folks to get checked out if there’s an established family history or if there are warning signs that have been brushed off due to not meeting the typical age range.
It appears this increase is attributed to poor diets with higher consumption of overly processed foods coupled with low fiber intake. There are also factors such as low physical activity, smoking, alcohol, red-meat consumption, and gut bacteria. Please look after yourself and loved ones and consider making lifestyle changes not only to reduce risks but live a healthier lifestyle!
