Eat Right and Early
Detection Key to Colon Cancer Fight by Lance Winslow
Two of the best things you can do to reduce the risk of
colon cancer from causing your early demise is to eat right and to seek Early
detection at the first sight of a problem. Colon cancer kills about 350 people
out of 100,000 people, so although the risks are not high they are high enough
to be of concern.
One thing of great benefit to know is that over the
last decade or so thru good education and Early detection fewer people are
dying from colon cancer. But there are a few things you need to look out for
such as; blood in your stool and knowledge of your family and types of cancer
that run in your genetic lines. If one of your siblings or one of your parents
has had colon cancer you'd be advised to be checked out as early as age 40 and
every five years.
If you are a woman and you've had breast cancer or
ovarian cancer you might also be susceptible. If you have an iron deficiency
whether you are a woman or a man this can be of concern. The survival rate of
most types of colon cancer is quite high if detected in the earlier stages and
this will definitely better your chances.
It is recommended you go to
the American Cancer Society's web site and read all about colon cancer if you
think you might be at risk or you just want additional information and details
for a loved one. I hope you will consider all of this in 2006.
