By Dr. T. Flint Gray, oncologist at Seby B. Jones Cancer Center

Thanks to improvements in prevention, early detection and treatment, more than a million people in the US count themselves as survivors of colon or rectum cancer (also called colorectal cancer).

To reduce your risk for colorectal cancer:

• Eat a healthy diet - low fat, low sugar and high fiber.
• Get a colonoscopy screening at age 50 or earlier if you have a family history.
• Look for any changes in your bowl movements - i.e., blood in the stool.
