But here’s what most people don’t understand — this might have just prevented cancer before it ever started. In this video, I break down exactly what polyps mean, which ones are dangerous, and why colon cancer is now increasing in younger adults — even in people under 50. We’ll also talk about: 👉 Why the screening age dropped to 45 👉 The different types of polyps (and which are precancerous) 👉 How colon cancer actually develops over time 👉 And the exact diet + lifestyle changes that can lower your risk Colon cancer is now one of the leading causes of cancer deaths — but it’s also one of the most preventable. If you’re over 45… or even younger with symptoms or risk factors… this is something you cannot ignore. 🎯 Early detection doesn’t just save lives — it stops cancer before it begins. — Dr. Mohammed Paika Board-Certified Internal Medicine &amp; Obesity Medicine 👨‍⚕️ ABOUT DR.
