- Eliminate processed meat from your diet
Processed meat such as ham, bacon, salami, burgers and pepperoni are highly dangerous for your health – they may taste nice, but they significantly increase the risk of colon cancer.
- Avoid eating red meat
According to recent studies, red meat is one of the main causes of colon cancer. The problem is not the meat itself, but the way it’s produced. Red meat is often genetically modified and the cows that give it are fed with grass full of glyphosate, which destroys the beneficial bacteria in our gut and causes havoc in our body.
- Physical inactivity
The increasingly sedentary lifestyle in today’s society can reduce the risk of cancer by 30-40%. By staying physically active you will boost the blood flow and neutralize dangerous pathogens in the body, effectively lowering the risk of cancer cell development. Additionally, exercising will also improve your immune system and prevent numerous ailments.
- Unhealthy weight
Maintaining your weight is of key importance for prevention of colon cancer. One 2014 study showed that overweight people are more likely to suffer from colon cancer, which is definitely connected to excess belly fat.
- Limit alcohol consumption
Alcohol abuse is one of the biggest risk factors for colon cancer. Sure, you can have a drink or two a day, but anything more than that on a constant basis significantly increases the risk of cancer.
- Add garlic in your diet
Garlic is one of nature’s wonders. It’s a very healthy vegetable with powerful antibacterial properties that can reduce the risk of any type of cancer. Adding garlic in your diet will also boost your immune system.
Other tips
People over 50 have a higher risk of developing colon cancer, which is doctors recommend regular medical checkups after that age. Eating a healthy diet is important as well – make sure that your plate always contains 50% of vegetables. If you’re suspecting colon cancer, we suggest getting a colonoscopy as blood tests are not that accurate. Don’t be gravely afraid of the symptoms – some of them might indicate polyps and digestive problems which are benign and easily defeated. Previous Page
