Colon Cancer – Prevention

Transcript

Regarding prevention of colon cancer, studies have shown that patients who are physically active or exercise regularly have a lower risk of developing colon cancer. In addition, we do believe that diet also has a role in preventing colon cancer, specifically with low fat and low animal protein diet with more fruits and vegetables and a high fiber diet can also be protective. Lastly, an aspirin a day can also help protect against the developing colon cancer, in addition to supplements of calcium and vitamin D on a daily basis can also be protective.
