A 2023 study found that consuming ultraprocessed foods increased the risk of developing precursors to colon cancer, such as polyps, tumors and lesions. Examples of ultraprocessed foods include ...
A colorectal polyp is a polyp (fleshy growth) occurring on the lining of the colon or rectum. [1] Untreated colorectal polyps can develop into colorectal cancer. [2] Colorectal polyps are often classified by their behaviour (i.e. benign vs. malignant) or cause (e.g. as a consequence of inflammatory bowel disease).
Colorectal cancer (CRC), also known as bowel cancer, colon cancer, or rectal cancer, is the development of cancer from the colon or rectum (parts of the large intestine). [5] Signs and symptoms may include blood in the stool , a change in bowel movements , weight loss, abdominal pain and fatigue. [ 9 ]
New research links omega-6 fatty acids, commonly found in seed oils, and colon cancer growth. But there’s more to the story—and study if you read it carefully.
A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish, legumes, and dairy may help lower the risk of gastrointestinal cancers, including colorectal cancer, recent research suggests.
The serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) is a relatively rare condition characterized by multiple and/or large serrated polyps of the colon. Serrated polyps include SSLs, hyperplastic polyps, and traditional serrated adenomas. Diagnosis of this disease is made by the fulfillment of any of the World Health Organization's (WHO) clinical criteria. [4]
New research adds to the growing body of evidence suggesting that environmental factors, including the consumption of red meat and sugar, may be driving cases of colorectal cancer among young people.
Furthermore, when evaluated for ERCC1, beclin-1, and beta-catenin in the stem cell region of crypts, the colonic tissues of chlorogenic acid-fed mice showed amelioration of the molecular aberrancies, [29] suggesting that chlorogenic acid is protective at the molecular level against colon cancer. This is the first diet-related model of colon ...
