It is absolutely NO SURPRISE to me that younger and younger people are getting colon and colo-rectal cancer.
The foods and drinks allowed by the FDA to be 'pushed' by marketing are full of carcinogens due to the man-made chemicals and food processing methods used in the foods and drinks that are ALL OVER standard grocery stores and in many restaurants, including especially 'fast food' restaurants. The list of these dangerous chemicals made by the tons daily is much too long to list here, as are the dangerous processes used to make many foods and drinks. Many Americans are doing all they can to avoid these dangerous foods. But many are not. Bottom line: THE FDA IS NOT DOING ITS JOB. The MD's don't mind: They get more sick people to treat and thereby get more income.

By the way, I opted one time to get the Cologuard test instead of a colonoscopy. The Cologuard test was negative. Two yeas later I was diagnosed with stage II colon cancer.

@tzveha I totally agree with you. We are totally out of control with the chemicals in the foods and drinks in this country. And organic foods have been proven to be untrustworthy as well. Best bet to do is, go to your local farmers market. You'll be able to get all your fresh fruits and veggies. There's usually a slaughter house that will break down a cow, pig for you after you buy it (I know from experience-my parents) This is a great way to make sure you know exactly where your food is coming from and what it was treated with (type of fertilizer) etc.

I also did the cologuard, twice. Both came back normal. Non invasive, just alittle confusing to me. The directions weren't very clear to me. Needed a translator... and English is my only language!!!
