There are 5 ways to prevent colorectal cancer

Some scholars believe that colorectal cancer is a lifestyle cancer, which is closely related to diet. In addition, colorectal cancer has a long growth period, so the prevention effect is better. You should pay attention to the following aspects. 1. Maintain an optimistic and cheerful mood, do appropriate activities, actively participate in exercise, and seek medical treatment in time if you feel unwell. 2. Those with digestive tract symptoms should undergo colonoscopy. Once intestinal adenomatous polyps are found, they should be removed under colonoscopy in time and sent for pathological examination. 3. Eat less high-fat diet, because high-fat diet will increase bile acid secretion, and bile acid may promote tumor cells. The more fat you consume, the greater the risk. 4. Avoid foods containing nitrosamines, which have serious carcinogenic effects. Foods such as smoked, pickled, grilled, and fried foods should be consumed as little as possible.

5. Drugs to prevent colorectal cancer: Currently, the drugs commonly used in clinical practice to prevent colorectal cancer include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, inhibitors of nuclear factor-6, and antagonists of cyclooxygenase activity.
