F. nucleatum animalis. Cancer causing bacteria. No l, there’s not much you can do. Results of the 2024 study by Nature.

It’s fucked up that I can’t trust a federal government cancer website with this administration.
Mine went from zero to stage 2 in 6 months, no family history, no genetic pre-disposition. Surgery 1 week from today.
March is colon cancer awareness month, get checked and wear blue.
Pro-tip, the stuff they make you drink before hand is NASTY. It tastes like salt water and not even GOOD salt water, salt water made with that fake potassium salt.
But if you add Gatorade powder (lime or arctic cherry, green or white drinks only, no orange or red) it’s drinkable. One glass every 12 minutes for 2 hours, wait 6 hours and do it again:
.Colonoscopy itself is no big deal, you’re out for the whole thing!
Yeah, prep is the worst thing about a colonoscopy. The procedure itself isn’t that bad.
When I did mine I made the mistake of trusting a fart… Don’t trust your farts while taking this
Agreed, that is not a time to gamble the fart. I 100% guarantee you, it is not a fart.
Don’t trust ANYTHING taking this. 😉
Hope everything goes well mate. We are all here if you need some buddies.
tl;dr: we don’t know yet.
If I had to guess, I’d say microplastics or some dietary thing like aspartame.
But there’s also a link between colon cancer and running. The article mentions two people as pictures of health who run a lot.
I know alot of people get into running to cope with stress. Maybe that is a possibile link.
We don’t know yet, but the article mentions it’s likely that the gut microbiome is involved, which means microplastics and food additives are unlikely to have much of an importance.
There are plenty of pathogens that cause cancers, and the article implies something about our lifestyle or their own evolution has turned a formerly benign entity against us.
I would assume food additives impact the gut biome, a casual search suggests as much. I wouldn’t rule out plastics either, though they are clearly more of an unknown.
Most synthetic sweeteners are considered scientifically rigorously tested and safe for consumption. :)
Same with glyphosate, I drink that shit every day and no weeds coming out my ass!
Men in their 20s, 30s, and 40s—runners, CrossFitters, lifelong nonsmokers—were streaming through her door at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. They all appeared lively and strong—yet there they were, battling colorectal cancers
Well there’s your problem. Don’t run, drink beer with friends, smoke socially and you’d happily get to retirement! 🤭
Distance running has been scientifically linked to an increase in colon cancer rates, and CrossFit could easily be similarly unhealthy as far as inducing extra stress on the intestine by being an activity that can lead to dehydration while violently shaking things around in there more than what could be considered “normal.”
Perhaps overconsumption of protein?
Same thought i had. A lot of men nowadays eat almost no fibre, which is very important in preventing colon cancer.
That’s why I also drink Metamucil twice a day. Stuff is fantastic for keeping everything moving. And I eat my fruits and veggies, but nothing wrong with a little supplementation.
Totally! And whether you eat a lot of plant fibre, you may not get enough soluble fibre, which metamucil gives you.
Naa, humans consume a lot more fiber than in the past. Salted meat was basically one of the main things we were able to store for long periods of time. The one thing that has changed? Overeating and sedentary lifestyle.
I get that i said nowadays but the comparison is irrelevant because whether they’re consuming more or less than in the past, it’s still not enough. Also a lot has changed, including capitalism taking away our time, thereby forcing a lot of people into convenient, cheap options.
Definitely need more research. I was diagnosed at 36 and had no genetic predisposition. Doc said I was just “unlucky.”
I’m curious if as kids they loved the sour candy stuff popular during their youth, could there be a connection or correlation?
Is there a reason you’re jumping on sour candy specifically here?
Ok fine. What about a link to red potato chip flavours?
