Book Description: Colon Cancer & the Polyps Connection is the first-and only book exploring the causes, cures and prevention of colorectal cancer. Gives you all of the facts you need to make the right decisions concerning your health—especially prevention. Yearly, over one-million North Americans are found to have polyps (colorectal cancer develops from polyps)—and 150,000 of those are diagnosed with colorectal cancer. About 1 in 3 people over age 50 have polyps and 56,000 North Americans die annually from colon cancer—more than from breast or prostate cancers! In this guide, author Stephen Fisher, a colorectal cancer survivor, tells how he waged a personal and logical assault on this disease, condensing daily journal entries of his feelings and fears, including his ordeals of searching for answers, finding doctors, enduring treatments and finally, how he faced his own mortality. Fisher shares what he learned from his own exhaustive study and his participation in a $25-million, government-funded study—the PPT, or Polyp Prevention Trial—which focuses on prevention and diet. This comprehensive guide includes terms, procedures, treatments, medical facts and data from The American Cancer Society and National Cancer Institute. Plus complete chapters on fat, fiber, fruits, vegetables, and the Computer-Assisted Diet Assessment created by the PPT! |
