Colorectal cancer is preventable! 

Regular screenings, a balanced diet, and exercise 

can help maintain a healthy digestive system .

 

Genetics + Lifestyle = High Risk of Colorectal Cancer.

Colorectal Cancer:

  Colorectal cancer is a known hereditary cancer. If there is a family history of colorectal cancer, the risk for other family members more than doubles. Beyond genetic factors, a Westernized diet has become a significant contributor to the malignant transformation of polyps in the colon, accelerating the risk due to dietary habits.

 

colonoscopy:

With a colonoscopy, you can wake up without feeling a thing, and polyps can be removed seamlessly.

        While you're asleep, a colonoscopy can assess the health of your colon, identifying any inflammation, diverticula, or tumors, all of which can be addressed immediately. If polyps are found, they can be removed on the spot to prevent potential cancerous changes.

        The Rainbow Diet: A Protective Shield for Your Body.

  Including a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables on your plate allows for the intake of different fibers and phytochemicals. The more colors of fruits and vegetables you have, the more energy you provide your body. A higher intake of nutrients in the colon significantly benefits the colon, digestive system, and cardiovascular health.
