Diet and Colon Cancer


Food is an important aspect of our lives. Like all living organisms, we need food to survive. Today many of us choose the food we eat based on its appearance and its taste leaving out its nutritional value. Most tasty foods lack the primary nutrition we need. Consuming such food may not affect you immediately but it can take its toll in the long run. Diet plays an important role in colon cancer or colorectal cancer.

Colon cancer is a common type of cancer that arises in aging people. Poor diet is one of the primary risk factors of colon cancer. The other factors associated with colon cancer are genetics and lifestyle factors. Some of the foods that can pose a threat to your colon’s health are unsaturated fats, red meat cooked directly over the fire, regular alcohol intake, more sugar, etc. Foods that can reduce the risk of colon cancer include, vegetables and fruits that are rich in fiber, foods with vitamin D, Food with omega-3 fatty acid like fish, some edible oils, etc. So keep your food healthy to ward off illness to your colon. Also, ensure to have a regular bowel movement to avoid the risk of colon cancer.
