About Colorectal Cancer

What you do, what you eat, and how you handle stress impact your overall state of well-being.
Nearly 150,000 people were diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the United States in 2008, the most recent year we have data for, with roughly 50,000 deaths attributed to this disease.[1]
It is the second leading cause of cancer death among cancers that affect both men and women, although it is one thought to be largely preventable, with rates 10-fold higher reported in Western countries.[2]
One study conducted among nearly 50,000 men found that over 70% of colorectal cancer incidence could be prevented by diet, physical activity, and specific health behaviors, such as refraining from smoking.[3]
Nearly all colorectal cancers are adenocarcinomas, with the great majority arising from an adenomatous polyp.[4] Recently, 6 lifestyle factors were found to cumulatively increase the risk for adenomas. This provides strong evidence that lifestyle modification is important for the prevention of colorectal polyps, especially advanced and multiple adenomas, which are established precursors of colorectal cancer.[5]
1. Cigarette smoking
2. Obesity
3. No regular use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
4. High intake of red meat
5. Low intake of fiber
6. Low intake of calcium
HEALTHY DIET
Emphasize plant-based whole foods, rich in micronutrients, cruciferous vegetables, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and calcium.

Colorectal cancer occurs more commonly in those over age 50, men, and individuals of African-American descent, and those with a family history of colorectal cancer or a personal history of polyps, inflammatory bowel disease, or low socioeconomic status.[6]
Smoking increases the risk for colorectal cancer for as long as 25 years after quitting, although having a normal body mass index (BMI) and having high fruit consumption mitigate this risk to a small degree.[7]
Other dietary factors associated with risk include consumption of animal foods, particularly red and processed meat and low fiber and calcium intake.[8]
Alcohol and an elevated BMI are also risk factors, while physical activity has a dose-dependent benefit for reducing risk.[9][10][11]
BREAK UNHEALTHY HABITS
Limit alcohol intake and do not smoke.

A number of screening tests for colorectal cancer are available, and require a physician’s guidance to determine the most appropriate. Colonoscopy, for example, is the most likely to find polyps or cancer, but also to have complications such as bowel tears or infection.
Several tumor markers may be used to monitor progress or guide treatment decisions, including carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA).
Low Vitamin D levels have been associated with the risk of developing colorectal cancer, as well as both overall and colorectal cancer specific mortality.[12][13]

STAY ACTIVE
Be physically active, every day. Even light intensity exercise has benefit.[14]

Emphasize:
1. Brightly colored, fresh vegetables, leafy greens and fresh fruits (choose organic if possible)
2. Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, etc.
3. Whole foods (foods that are as close to their natural form as possible)
4. Low sugar/low glycemic diet (Glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) are measures of the effect on blood glucose level after a food containing carbohydrates is consumed)
5. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in cold water fish such as sardines, wild-caught salmon, cod, mackerel, tuna
6. High fiber, from whole grains, beans, vegetables and fruits
7. Healthy fats, from avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil, coconut oil, cold water fish
8. For animal protein, choose lean poultry and fish over red meat, and aim to view meat as a condiment rather than a staple. Try to choose grass fed and organic meats and eggs whenever possible. Eat no fish larger than a salmon to minimize environmental contaminants, including mercury.
Avoid:
1. Processed and grilled meats. Also, try to limit intake of red meat
2. Fast foods, fried foods, baked goods and packaged, processed foods
3. Sugar, sweeteners and artificial sweeteners
4. Vegetable oils, shortening, margarine and anything with hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils

Hemp Oil 1800 Fortified Capsules

  • Capsules are based on SatiMedTM Botanical Formula Plus, and include an essential combination of herbal compounds from the Hemp, Cinnamon, Mint, Balm, and Chamomile plants, and are formulated in natural Hemp Seed oil.
  • Suggested dose: 2-4 capsules per day before the meal.

Curcumin Phytosome

  • Extracted from the spice turmeric, curcumin has been shown to arrest cancer cell growth, induce programmed cell-death (apoptosis), and increase the efficacy of chemotherapy for treatment resistant colorectal cancer cells.[16] While trials of curcumin suggest at least 4g per day may be more beneficial than lower doses,[17]
  • Suggested dose: 1-2g per day of Meriva® or Longvida® curcumin.[18],[19]

Berberine

  • Human cell studies showed that co-treatment with berberine extract and tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) induced cell death in human renal cancer cells.[30] It has also demonstrated positive effects in animal studies with improvement to damaged kidney cells, and in human cell studies.[31],[32]
  • Suggested dose: 500 mg, 3 times per day.

Pterostilbene & Resveratrol

  • This antioxidant interferes with all stages of cancer development, and its low bioavailability may make it more suitable for colorectal cancer.[22] When given to patients with colorectal cancer at a dose of 500-1000mg per day, it reduced tumor proliferation.[23]
  • Suggested dose: 500-100 mg per day.

Vitamin D

  • Vitamin D levels have been associated with both the incidence of colorectal cancer as well as overall mortality.
  • Suggested dose is that sufficient to raise vitamin D blood levels to >40 ng/mL, which may require 5000 IU per day or more.[15]

Magnesium 400 FORTIFIED

  • Magnesium 400 FORTIFIED Capsules are based on SatiMedTM Botanical Formula Plus, and include an essential combination of high absorption Magnesium bisglycinate complex, Piperine and Vitamin B6.
  • Magnesium 400 FORTIFIED supports normal physiologic function, nervous system, muscles and bones, reduces tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) is important for normal brain function and for keeping the nervous system and immune system healthy.
