Preventing Colorectal Cancer

According to surveys, colorectal cancer is named as second only to lung cancer for cancer-related deaths and is responsible for nearly 50 thousand deaths per year in the US alone. Preventing colorectal cancer has been a primary concern for physicians, but is largely avoided during testing and treatment. Testing and prevention can help to reduce the risk and offer more opportunity for treatment if the condition is identified early enough.

Most patients avoid testing that can help in preventing colorectal cancer deaths. When asked about screening, many indicate that they are unaware of the need or afraid of excessive costs for laboratory tests. Recent reports have shown that nearly 150 thousand Americans each year are diagnosed with colorectal cancer and early detection has helped to reduce related deaths. Medical suppliers and care providers are making knowledge and testing more available and affordable to enable at risk individuals the possibility to diagnose potential conditions before it is too late.

Preventing colorectal cancer can be as easy as choosing a lifestyle that is primarily anti-cancer and maintaining regular testing. Guidelines from various studies agree on choices such as a healthier diet and exercise, reduction in medications, and limiting consumption of toxic substances for reducing cancer risk. Choices like a diet rich in red meat or regular alcohol use can increase the chances of developing cancer as much as 20-25 percent.

FOBT tests and regular medical visits can help prevent colorectal cancer deaths by enabling early detection. Many of these testing supplies are available commercially without the need for expensive medical office visits.
