How to Lower Your Risk of Colorectal Cancer | Alan Desmond, MD

In Episode #139, I sat down with gastroenterologist Alan Desmond, MD, to talk about colorectal cancer – the third most common form of cancer globally. We had an in-depth discussion about what colorectal cancer is, who tends to get it, how it’s diagnosed, and the survival rate after diagnosis. Alan also shared the importance of colorectal cancer screening and what lifestyle modifications we can make to lower our risk of developing colorectal cancer.   For more from Dr Alan Desmond, see Episodes #56, #123, #139, #141, and #143.
