Colon / Colorectal Cancer
RISK OF COLORECTAL CANCER AND COLON CANCER – (03-05-07)
Risk of Colorectal Cancer is linked to Erythrocyte Compositions of Fatty Acids as Biomarkers for Dietary Intakes of Fish, Fat, and Fatty Acids
Another wow. Look at these odds ratios…as high as an 9.45 times increase in risk of colon cancer with higher levels of saturated fat / lower levels of healthier fats in red blood cells. This is one of those reasons I have such a beef with our national organizations.
Information like this needs to be disseminated to everyone within earshot. Just by increasing our intake of healthier fats and reducing intake of unhealthy fats we could make a serious dent in the rates of one of the greater cancer killers. But our national organizations remain silent, instead pushing to collect ever more money to find a “cure” for a very preventable disease.
