55,000 lives a year are lost to a cancer that is preventable and treatable – even beatable – when detected early.
Colon cancer is the third most common cancer in US, and the second leading cause of cancer deaths.
Over time, if undetected, colorectal cancer becomes a killer. But screening tests can find it early, when treatment is most effective. Even better, this is one cancer you can prevent. Screening finds pre-cancerous polyps that can be removed before they turn into colorectal cancer. If you're 50 or over, stop this disease by getting screened for colorectal cancer.
Talk with your healthcare provider. Talk with your family. Learn that the test isn't anything to fear.
