> Yes, if you are currently young, you face higher CRC risk than previous generations did when they were young. That’s the bad news. Unlike the usual Bettridge's law, the answer to the headline is only a qualified "No". It is a "So is all other cancers!", which is pretty bad news for folks who are young and healthy right now.
Why are the "critical terms" in "that headline" in quotes? Then some clown downvotes this straightforward question. Brilliant.
Probably because one of the main explorations of the articles is quantifying "young people."

The same vaccines that can't be tested against a control group for ethical reasons.
Kind of pointless to inject a bunch of corpses anyway.

People should be reminded that colonoscopy is not just a screening, it is also preventative. They often find growths that may develop into cancer, and remove them during the procedure.
Does insurance see it this way? I've had a couple precancerous moles (melanoma in situ) removed, which seems similar, and my health insurance provider billed me more than I was expecting because they didn't categorize it as preventive care.

Those articles don't really say what the "botch" is. Was it the anesthesia? The actual endoscopic examination? Removal of polyps? If its the polyp removal, I can certainly see how that could lead to problems. But you're a little stuck: even if you use another technique to do the scan, you still have to remove any polyps you find, don't you?
I did mine without anesthesia/sedatives. There were moments of discomfort when they pump gas to expand the area - feels like a big fart is stuck in your gut - but otherwise no big deal, especially knowing that the pain is not dangerous. Recommend. It eliminates recovery time afterwards (you can drive yourself home) and increases safety.
- I take 100g proteins, 30g fibers daily
- Red meat once a week but never fried
- Most of the protein comes from eggs, yoggurt, chicken and various plant based sources
- No white bread
- No added sugars, no deserts except fruits
- Nothing fried
- No added salt
- No canned food
- Saturated fats kept at minimum.
- No spicy food
- No alcohol
The results are incredible. I lost 8 kg, my blood samples are perfect, my pulse dropped with 10, I sleep better, no migraines (I had those for years). Also this year I was the only one in the family that didn't got any cold, and that's quite hard with two kids going to kindergarten.
It's hard in the first two weeks, but afterwards it's becoming your daily routine. I also use an app to track various stats. The gameification of the diet also helped me a little.
I urge you to try this. To make it more manageable start small. For example avoid fast food for 2 weeks. Don't put any mayonnaise in your food for 1month. Stop eating white bread. And then add more and more restrictions. The hardest fight is the urge to eat sugar and drink alcohol, give it time.
I guess cancer is the new climate denial Did you miss the BILLIONS in lawsuits against RoundUp and other herbicides? Did you miss all the deregulation by the first and now second Trump administration allowing crazy levels of pollution and toxicity among all the industries? They are still using leaded fuel in prop aircraft at hundreds of airports around the country and world, spraying it on unknowning population Our e…
Biden's EPA filing:
The agency says it is standing by its conclusions that, as registered, glyphosate doesn't pose major risks to human health..."
Any US admin always serves the Big Business, and people's health is just a bump on the road.
Had my first colonoscopy 4 months ago, after going for a couple of years with every red flag symptom under the sun. The procedure was a piece of cake. As the standard is where I'm from (Norway), I was only administered some sedatives - but honestly I couldn't feel much difference. I watched the procedure on the screen, which was quite fascinating. The worst part, by far, was the emptying / prepping. A month prior to…
I didn't actually mind the prepping too much personally. Just to be safe I started early to go on the long end of what they suggested with the diet and basically just ate baked, unseasoned chicken for 10 days. Then did the bowel prep; a lot of people hate the drink, but idk. I thought it was fine. Maybe better to assume it will suck though, that way you at least can't be disappointed. > In the end they nothing was fo…
Personally I am hesitant to do colonoscopy after a relative had a botched procedure. Just this month two celebrities revealed botched colonoscopies. I hope they figure out ways to make this procedure safer. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/celebrity/articles/kathy... https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/celebrities/202...
Read the safety statistics and let it override the anecdotes. Colon cancer is easy to prevent and a horrible way to die.
