One’s biological age, which measures the body’s physiological state, may help predict who is at risk for developing colon polyps, a known risk factor for colorectal cancer.

If this section is deemed relevant, it should be made more clear how it is relevant. It is also only 1 research area, and hardly representative of relevant research as a whole.
