    One of my friends died of colon cancer a couple of years ago. One of the things she told me is that while people are getting colon cancer way younger, the doctors are reluctant to do things such as the blood tests or colonoscopies even when they are presenting clear symptoms because “they are too young”. If this is you, advocate for yourself and switch doctors if needed. Her outcome would be very different if it had been caught before it spread to other organs.

    When I was a student Montessori teacher in the late 1990s, I was disturbed to see the rise of Lunchables in the lunchboxes of my under-7 pupils. Sure, we had processed foods when I was a child, but nothing like that. Colon cancer runs in my family, but primarily in the branch that lived in Argentina, and ate grilled meat all the time. So the contributing factors you mention here are not a surprise. Thanks for addressing this alarming trend, Mic!

    • @peter5.056
      @peter5.056 Před 5 měsíci +13

      Lunchables should carry a Black-Box Warning....perhaps even be considered child abuse, in the same way that packing a lunch for your kids of canned cake frosting would be. At BEST, they are taste treats for a couple times a month maximum. Kids ate that c.r.a.p. food 15 times a week!

    • @johngross5224
      @johngross5224 Před 5 měsíci

      The fact that you mentioned it was "grilled" says a lot. Newer research is saying acrylamides, heterocyclic aromatic amines and policyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are all risk factors in various forms of cancer from your mouth to your anus. All these are formed when things are cooked in high heat and dry conditions like grilling.

      eat dense starches, and intact fatty foods if needed for caloric requirements. Whole grains, potatoes, very thoroughly cooked legumes as tolerated, add whole food fats like walnuts, ground flax, avocado if you need extra calories. Go ahead and eat your raw veggies, and cooked greens after you eat some calories dense food. You can easily eat 4000 calories a day to meet your energy needs.@@justadude4826

    • @AlohaChips
      @AlohaChips Před 4 měsíci +6

      I think some people can get inured to how bad the food they're eating is--this has been my experience, anyway. About 6 months back I had blood tests for the first time in years and found out my total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol was so bad that even for my age (late 30s) and weight (not overweight, in fact I've teetered on underweight at points in my life) that statins were being recommended.
      I didn't think I had a bad diet--I haven't eaten much red meat in years, proteins for me were some tofu, and chicken/turkey with the occasional bit of pork and beef like once a year, if that. I also favored meals that had a significant vegetable element. Doc gave me the option of trying some diet changes for six months before going for meds, so I changed some habits--particularly I just straight up started eating more raw vegetables my entire meal, filling up on them with nothing but a little italian/balsalmic dressing ... and when I felt snacky, chomping down on an entire cucumber or a bowl of cherry tomatoes or carrots, etc ... that sort of thing.
      After 6 months of that my cholesterol is still a bit high, but it has dropped ~40 points, and I'm no longer in the range of the suggested treatment being statins, only diet/lifestyle changes.
      One thing I really noticed after I had being going hard on the raw vegetables for a bit was that, when I finally let myself indulge and have the kind of meal I used to completely subsist on (a lot of stir fried things in various sauces) that I found it ... startlingly oily. I was puzzled how it didn't seem like that stuff was nearly so oily before. But I really, sincerely, hadn't thought it was. With the diet change, it became a lot more obvious.
      Although I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who eat unhealthy AND know they're doing it (and I think they're not all as surprised to be unhealthy as you think they are, my beef-loving friend who is very heavy acknowledges his food intake isn't good VERY blatantly and fairly frequently), I think there are others who are in the margins and/or self-brainwashed going "yeah, yeah I think this is healthy enough", but the reality is they need a wake up call. Something needs to shake up their habits and what they're used to to show them the difference between actually healthy and "I think it's healthy" is waaaaay more stark than they understand.
      Humans are BAD at assessing long term causation and risk, just look at industrial disaster breakdowns, among many other kinds of safety-related breakdowns, and you'll hear allllll about how easily humans get complacent about minding and managing their long term risk until the results are catastrophic.
      Here's hoping more people wake up before they find their catastrophic health consequence is cancer.

    I was diagnosed with Stage 2 colon cancer at age 49. I had a resection surgery with the right side of my colon removed along with 35 lymph nodes, which all came back clean. I did not have chemo. It is almost 2 years later now and I see my oncologist every 3 months. I have adopted a whole food plant based diet, which my oncologist advocates and supports fully. I only wish I knew about the dangers of the standard American diet sooner. But, as my oncologist said to me, after all that has happened to me with the cancer, a good thing did happen - I have completely changed my nutrition and am also now living a more active lifestyle. I am losing weight and feel great.

      Unfortunately, the cult like so-called carnivore movement will reap the whirlwind in 10 - 20 years. For some, sooner. People with no understanding of human anatomy and biology promote dangerous fiction such as "we 'can't' digest fiber so we shouldn't eat it", etc. And worse, people listen. They think their asymptomatic lag time means good health.
      It's sad, and my aunt, a researching cardiologist, is already beginning to see quite a few in their 30s. Even when confronted with the objective facts, some insist their short little frugivore teeth are 'proof' that they are supposed to subsist on meat, and the fresh arterial plaque / stiff arteries / precancerous intestinal polyps are completely coincidental, despite the growing and robust body of data to the contrary.

    my grandfather passed away from colon cancer, he was 70+ though and it's been about 10 years, but even then they told my grandfather it was probably because he used to eat a lot of (red) meat (which was very normal for people his age back then) and because of pesticides. he didn't smoke, rarely drank alcohol and overall lived a very healthy lifestyle he was super fit until he got diagnosed and then it was already too late. it's important to go to the doctor early if you have changing stool, bleeding etc. - he already had it but he felt ashamed and didn't dare to go to the doctor. maybe if he had gone early, he would still be alive now as he was a very strong man. i still miss him very much. thank you Mike for this video! i hope it helps people, honestly.

      As someone who does still sometimes go 6 days without bowel movements, it doesn't actually hurt, you just don't feel the need to go and that's that.
      Still, before I went vegetarian (now vegan) I used to be glad I only went like once a week because, although not going wasn't painful, the bowel movements themselves were and they always left me feeling sore for a while after, too. At least now it doesn't hurt at all.

    Solution: Eat an organic WFPB diet, make sure you're eating enough fiber, stay away from smoke, and somehow stay away from plastic.

I've switched to glass for drinks for the most part but that's just the beginning. I have seen the process of plucking fruits and veggie to the storage, they all hit plastic. it's nearly impossible to find a place where your head of broccoli hasn't hit plastic. we have to be the change, demand all these things, and only buy and invest in companies that will use clean sources of packing, storage, for all foods and drink.

      It’s probably a combination of things. I started having digestive problems and it was discovered I had NASH (liver disease). Everything came back negative for any chronic illnesses so it was assumed I’m having inflammation problems from allergies, weight, and anxiety. Changed to a low inflammation vegetarian diet, cut out seed oils and processed foods, got anxiety meds, and exercised more often and it was cleared up in a year. Treating the anxiety was the biggest factor though. Once it was under control, I stopped overeating and found it easy to stick to my diet. After 2 years, I lost all my excess weight and barely take any medication for allergies and anxiety anymore.

    Great video. This is a real problem because routine screening for colon cancer doesn't start until age 45, and a lot of people that age have no idea they're due for a colonoscopy. (FYI, annual mammograms should start at age 40). It's so sad seeing someone in their late 30's present with advanced colon cancer. The only way they're caught is by unexplained anemia or an obstructing mass. By then, it's usually spread to at least the lymph nodes. Eat fiber and investigate any strange abdominal pain!
