Ep. 6 | The Rising Threat of Colorectal Cancer and the Oral Microbiome Connection That Could Save Your Life

Colorectal cancer is the only cancer with rising mortality rates — and it's now the number one cancer killer for people under 50. Dr. Ellie Campbell and Dr. Kathleen Carson break down why it's happening, what warning signs to watch for, and the surprising role that mouth bacteria play in colon cancer development. Dr. Carson shares her own stage 3 colorectal cancer diagnosis at age 42 with no family history, and both doctors explain how diet, vitamin D, the oral microbiome, and early screening can save your life.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ie6devIsmLQDisclaimerSleep, Sex & Senility is produced for informational and educational purposes only.
