Description
5. Get a colonoscopy at 45 — not only when symptoms show up
👉 Colon cancer can grow quietly for up to 10 years. By the time symptoms appear, it may no longer be early stage.
4. Aim for 30g of fiber daily
👉 Every 10g increase in fiber is linked to a 7% lower risk of colorectal cancer.
3. Cut processed meat. Limit red meat.
👉 Processed meat is classified by the WHO as Group 1 — a confirmed carcinogen. Red meat is Group 2A — probably carcinogenic. They are different classifications, but both are worth reducing.
2. Move for 30 minutes daily
👉 Exercise helps speed up gut transit. Less time waste sits in your colon means less exposure to harmful compounds.
1. Eliminate or greatly reduce alcohol
👉 Alcohol is a direct colon carcinogen. When it comes to cancer risk, there is no truly safe threshold.
