Here are six things to avoid to help lower your risk of colorectal cancer. Number one, obesity, this is obvious, it’s important to keep their weight under control as obesity is associated with a lot of cancers including almost double the risk of colon cancer. Number two eating a lot of red meat is associated with a 28% higher risk of colon cancer. Number three, sugar sweetened beverage consumption is associated with a 32% increase in colon cancer risk. Number four, alcohol is associated with up to 60% higher risk of colon cancer, surprisingly alcohol affects the whole digestive tract not just the liver. Number five, smoking increases colon cancer by 47%, most people think smoking just affects the lungs and the heart but toxins from smoking get swallowed so it affects the whole digestive system. Number six, another surprise is that simple inactivity increases colon cancer risk by 27% so to reduce your risk of colon cancer avoid these six things.
