If you’re under age 50, there’s no need to worry about colorectal cancer, right? Not quite. In recent years we’ve seen a dramatic rise in colorectal cancer cases in young adults. But why? What role do diet, lifestyle, and genetics play? And most importantly, what can you do to reduce your risk?
On this episode of the Healthier You podcast, Dr. Ashlee Williams talks with Dr. Alex Jow, a board-certified gastroenterologist at Kaiser Permanente, to learn about what’s behind this rise in cases as well as actionable steps you can take to reduce the chance of developing colorectal cancer or improve the odds of potentially life-saving early detection.
