Mar 1 - 31, 2023
March is Colon and Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month
“Colon Cancer is Preventable”
Although colon cancer is the second leading cause of death in America, according to the CDC, it is also preventable, if detected early. However, 1 in 3 adults who should be screened (ages 50 – 75) are not doing so. While there are several tests available for colon cancer screening, you can start with a simple take-home test called the fecal immunochemical test (FIT).
