Good thing I went to a top ten rated engineering school and received an excellent education! I’m sure that school selection is greatly reducing my cancer risk!

“However, researchers have yet to perform a comprehensive, large-scale evaluation that compares the magnitude of these risks with those for late-onset colorectal cancer and assesses whether the risks for early-onset colorectal cancer correlate with specific types of colorectal cancer”

Please allow me to translate:

We really don’t know.

It’s not red meat. It’s sugar and high carbohydrate obesity.

Daily aspirin use, starting while young, is strong protection against several cancers.

Correlation does not equal causation. For example, I didn’t find any indication of sex in subjects studied. Is it possible that the correlation exists mostly for males? And, if so, could it not be another causative factor, like testosterone or anal sexual activity?

While in college working for the professor who was their number one outside contract winner, I learned that you find whatever the person paying you expects to find. Sometimes you’d have to really delve into the data and get passed the circular wording to find that the data showed the opposite of the carefully worded conclusion “appeared” to say.

Not sure how a poor education can be translated to increased Colorectal Cancer. All this does is throw it in the mix with things that show increased Colorectal Cancer.

Not saying it isn’t true but there is no correlation in the article. There’s plenty of smart people out there that eat crap.

“Poor education”?? Wow. I had no idea cancer cells could determine that. Idiots.

“Poor education?”

That means the entire country is at risk.

My wife had a colonoscopy last week. She was clean as a whistle in terms of polyps. The doctor, who has been in this line of work for over 30 years recommended two things: 1- eat plenty of “live food”, meaning fresh fruits, vegetables and salads, and (this surprised me) 2- avoid bread

I am a heart patient and, with respect to bread, I think I had read or heard before that the processed flour acted something like an abrasive in the blood vessel walls encouraging plaque build-up. If true, that might carry through to the colon.

I am not in the medical field, so I don’t really know. Just trying to navigate through my life trying to learn from what I read and hear.

HPV from sexual contact, not red meat from cows.

Poor Education Linked to Colorectal Cancer

Does it have something to do with most academics having their heads up their asses?

Wonder if butt sex has anything to do with it. Funny how they never went there.

Most cancers are a lifestyle disease.
