Colon can.cer is among the most preventable forms of can.cer. In fact, recent studies reveal that up to 40–50% of cases can be prevented through healthy habits and timely screenings. Here are ten science-backed steps you can take to significantly reduce your risk:
1. Get Regular Screenings
Why It Matters: Colon can.cer usually begins as harmless polyps that can be found and removed during routine screenings.
Take Action: Start screenings at age 45, or earlier if you’re at higher risk due to family history or other factors. Stick to your doctor’s screening schedule.
2. Boost Your Fiber Intake
Why It Matters: Fiber supports healthy digestion, reduces inflammation, and helps eliminate harmful substances from the colon.
Take Action: Eat more fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and nuts. Aim for 25–30 grams of fiber daily.
3. Cut Back on Red and Processed Meats
