Stop Colon Cancer with BACTERIA?! (Study)

When it comes to cancer, colon cancer may be one of the most ruthless… especially for older adults.
Studies have found that the risk of colon cancer increases as you get older… and that nearly 60% of ALL colon cancer cases in the U.S. are in people over the age of 70.
Which could make you a prime target for this deadly cancer!
Getting regular colon screenings and exams is one of the best, proactive ways to stay cancer-free… especially as you age.
But according to some groundbreaking new research, you can arm yourself against colon cancer by harnessing the power of BACTERIA!
According to a study published in the journal Cell Host & Microbe, the increased presence of certain bacteria in a gut could raise your risk that colon polyps could become cancerous.
This is important because not all polyps turn cancerous… but researchers found that a specific kind of bacteria called non-enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (B. fragilis) was elevated in patients with colon polyps that ended up being cancerous.
Why?
It turns out that B. fragilis often induced inflammation of polyps, which can spread and lead to cancer.

But here’s the good news.
Balancing your gut with good bacteria can help balance this inflammation and keep your colon healthy – and even help stop polyps from growing and becoming cancerous.
Studies have found that ‘good’ bacteria – such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus – help keep ‘bad’ bacteria in check and reduce the risk of inflammation (which is one of the root causes of colon cancer).
But with countless kinds of bacteria living in your gut, how do you ensure you’re getting the right number of good bacteria? Specifically, the kind that’s going to be good for your colon?
If you’re not already, you can start by taking a gut-healthy probiotic supplement – specifically a supplement that contains both Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus. Probiotic supplements can be found at most pharmacies or online health retailers. Just be sure to look for supplements that contain the aforementioned probiotic strains.
Now, when it comes to colon cancer, the single best thing you can do is to get regular screenings to detect any irregularities.
In fact, new guidelines recommend starting colon screenings as early as age 45… so if you haven’t started routine exams, now’s the time to get started!
