Dr. Jeanine Cook-Garard learns about Colorectal Cancer, because a new study by the American Cancer Society shows that -- while overall cancer deaths in people younger than 50 in the United States has decreased since their last study -- only colorectal cancer mortality has increased, advancing it from the fifth most common cause of cancer death in the early 1990s to the first in 2023, seven years earlier than predicted. She speaks with Dr. Pascale M. White, a Fellow of the American College of Gastroenterology, and Associate Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
In this deeply personal and vulnerable episode, Kriben Govender (Founder of Nourishme Organics and host of the Gut Health Gurus Podcast) returns to the studio to share a significant life update. After a period of absence from social media and podcasting, Kriben reveals the "curveball" he was thrown in August 2025: a diagnosis of Stage 4 Colon Cancer [13:27]. Despite being a pillar of health and a leader in the gut health space, Kriben details his shocking journey from noticing early symptoms to discovering a 6cm tumour that had metastasised to his liver and lungs [17:19]. In this episode, Kriben and James discuss: The Diagnosis: The early signs Kriben initially overlooked and the harrowing moment he received his Stage 4 prognosis [14:20]. The Root Causes: Kriben's theories on how extreme stress [22:01] and gut dysbiosis [24:04] may have allowed the disease to take hold. The Global Search for Healing: Why Kriben chose to seek unconventional and targeted treatments in Germany, including dendritic cell vaccines [32:05] and trans-arterial chemo embolisation [28:56]. The Power of the Microbiome: The incredible story of how a faecal transplant from his wife [37:15] and specific dietary shifts led to a dramatic shrinkage of his tumours. A Message of Hope: How Kriben's tumours have shrunk from 6cm to approximately 1cm [45:08], and his mission to inspire others to become active participants in their own health journey [41:40]. Kriben shares his current state of remission, the importance of a positive mindset (the "placebo effect" of the mind) [52:13], and his commitment to returning to full health while continuing to support the Nourishme Organics community.

In this eye-opening episode, host John Odermatt sits down with Dr. Darrell Wolfe — a doctor of natural medicine with 45 years of frontline healing experience — to challenge everything conventional medicine tells us about chronic disease. Dr. Wolfe argues that autoimmune disease, cancer, and heart disease as we know them don't actually exist — they are all downstream effects of a neglected large intestine, toxic modern environments, and systemic poisoning through food, water, and air. He explains how leaky gut leads to leaky brain, why lipopolysaccharoids flood the bloodstream and trigger inflammation, and how the body's electrical and electromagnetic nature is being suppressed. Dr. Wolfe introduces the concept of the "Perfect Day Lifestyle" — a whole-life approach to nutrition, hydration with structured water, and non-surgical bodywork that he claims can reverse fibroids, heart blockages, neurological symptoms, and more. The two also dig into the politics of health, including legal protections for toxic corporations, the fraud behind statin drugs and cholesterol myths, and the attacks Dr. Wolfe has faced for speaking out. This episode is a passionate, unconventional challenge to the sick-care model — and a call to reclaim your health sovereignty.

Send us Fan MailHow dietary fatty acids regulate the initiation, propagation, and resolution of inflammation.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Parenteral nutrition history: IV nutrition evolved from soybean oil alone in the 1960s to complex blends including fish oil as the biology of ω-3s became understood.Three phases of inflammation: Initiation, propagation (driven by ω-6–derived prostaglandins and leukotrienes), and active resolution (driven by ω-3-derived resolvins and protectins).Pro-resolving mediators: Resolution is an active biological process, not passive; EPA and DHA generate resolvins and protectins that actively terminate inflammation.Aspirin's ω-3 mechanism: Aspirin inhibits arachidonic acid metabolism but allows EPA/DHA to access COX-2, upregulating pro-resolution mediators — a likely underappreciated mechanism of action.Cell membrane competition: EPA and DHA physically displace arachidonic acid in membranes, shifting the balance of mediators produced and improving resolution capacity.Linoleic acid & EPA synthesis: High linoleic acid intake saturates shared desaturase enzymes, inhibiting the body's conversion of ALA to EPA — meaning reducing ω-6 can raise ω-3 levels without supplementation.Dose & timing of ω-3 incorporation: ~2g/day of EPA+DHA shifts the arachidonic acid-to-EPA ratio enough to measurably reduce prostaglandin E2 production; white blood cells reflect changes within a month.ABOUT THE GUEST: Philip Calder, PhD is Professor of Nutritional Immunology in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southampton. His research focuses on how dietary fatty acids — particularly omega-3s — modulate immune responses and inflammatory processes across clinical and healthy populations.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 200: Dietary Fats & Seed Oils in Inflammation, Colon Cancer & Chronic Disease | Tim Yeatman & Ganesh HaladeSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners:AquaTru: Water filtration devices that remove microplastics, metals, bacteria, and more from your drinking water.

The average age in which people are diagnosed with colon cancer continues to drop. Louisville-based gastroenterologist Ben Evans, MD says for decades the conventional wisdom was that one should begin getting screened for colon cancer at age 50. Now, he says you should learn your family history with colon cancer and colon polyps, and with that as your guide, you should start screening as early as your twenties. Dr. Evans says that while the colonoscopy remains the gold standard for colon screening, there are stool-based testing alternatives that can be done in the privacy of your home. However, he notes that if one of the home-based tests reveal a positive result, you will need to undergo a colonoscopy. Intense research has yet to come up with an answer as to why those being diagnosed with colon cancer are getting increasingly younger. Dr. Evans says the mortality rate for those diagnosed with cancer continues to climb while to varying degrees, the mortality rate is dropping for all other types of cancer. In addition to checking your family history with colon cancer, you can help yourself by living a healthy lifestyle. Dr. Evans suggests quitting smoking, reducing alcohol intake and consumption of processed foods, while being sure to load up on fruits and vegetables. Dr. Evans says you should be aware of colon cancer symptoms. They include bloody stool, rectal bleeding and abdominal pain. If any of these symptoms materialize, he says you should not leave anything to chance and seek medical attention.

Colon cancer is no longer just a concern for older adults. More and more younger people are being diagnosed — often at later stages. In this episode, I sit down with board-certified medical oncologist Dr. Avishek Kumar to talk about why this shift is happening and what people need to start paying attention to. We explore how symptoms are often dismissed or misdiagnosed, the patterns he's seeing firsthand, and the critical warning signs that should never be ignored. This is a conversation about awareness, advocacy, and learning how to listen to your body before small signals become bigger concerns. In this episode, we discuss: Why colon cancer is increasing in younger adults The "too young" mindset that delays diagnosis Symptoms that are often overlooked or minimized The importance of early detection How to start advocating for your health If something feels off in your body, it's worth paying attention to.

What do high-performance fighter jets and a stage four cancer diagnosis have in common? More than you think. This week, we're joined by Dr. Avishek “Avi” Kumar, a man who pulls double duty as both a practicing oncologist and a U.S. Air Force Flight Surgeon. Avi spends his time breaking the sound barrier in F-16s and fighting the "slow-motion car crash" of cancer diagnoses in young adults. We dive into the "too young" trap: why 30-year-olds are increasingly being hit with colon cancer and why the "warning lights" are being ignored. From the G-force toll on the body to the "caliber" of your poop (yes, Avi uses military terms for dookie) this episode is about unlearning the shame that is quite literally killing us.

What if a stage 4 cancer diagnosis wasn't the end—but the beginning of a completely different path to healing? In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Ivelisse Page, Co-founder and CEO of Believe Big, to share her powerful journey of overcoming stage 4 colon cancer after being given less than a 10% survival chance. She opens up about rejecting conventional chemotherapy, discovering mistletoe therapy, and how faith, mindset, and integrative approaches transformed her outcome. This conversation dives into the limitations of standard cancer care, the overlooked power of the immune system, and how emotional and spiritual healing play a critical role in recovery. If you or a loved one is navigating cancer and searching for hope, guidance, and alternative perspectives, this episode will expand what you believe is possible.

This week, Bobbi Conner talks with MUSC's Dr. Thomas Curran about the increase in colon cancer in younger adults and options for screening.
Colon cancer rates are rising among younger Americans. But on today's podcast, Rush's Dr. Salina Lee demystifies the disease and highlights the recent progress made in diagnosing and treating patients.

We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Send us Fan MailDo you avoid the topic of colon cancer? So do we. Let's tackle it together.Better yet - watch this episode on YouTube here: HEREDanielle mentioned that the things we are avoiding talking about are often the things we should really be bringing into the light and taking action with. So let's do it together. It is Colon Cancer Awareness month after all. Are there any colon cancer symptoms we should be looking out for? If you have any changes like bleeding or changes in symptoms - it's important to reach out to your gastroenterology team.Many people are curious about what colon cancer symptoms to look out for, however it's important to not that many people do not have classic symptoms. So if you are at risk, be sure to get regular colonoscopies and talk with your Gastroenterologist.Even if you don't have changes or colon cancer symptoms, new guidelines suggest people as young as 45 may need to be screened. If you've got IBD, you'll likely be receiving colonoscopies every 2-3 years or sooner if you are more at risk.It's a touchy subject for me and many with IBD who live with additional risk - so I won't share all the stats with you on why you want to prevent it. I know like me, you probably already know them. But here is how we are reducing our risk:⭐Regular Colonoscopies - THE best way to prevent it and get it early. Get them every 2 years after 10 years of diagnosis or sooner if your GI suggests it.⭐Check your nutrients! Vitamin D, folate, B12 - book a call with us and we can run them for you. ⭐Get Color & Fiber in the Diet - Eat the RAINBOW® and include fiber. ⭐Start with easy to tolerate varieties like soluble fibers like B2B which includes easy to tolerate prebiotic fiber acacia along with L.plantarum 299v to help reduce bloating and pain. Don't forget to ease into whatever you try!
Colorectal cancer has long been thought of as a disease of older folks. But that's changing — fast. Rates in older people are actually going down, and more and more people under 50 are getting this disease. And a surprising number of them are dying from it. So what's going on here? We dig into why young people are getting hit harder. Plus, we often hear that you should watch out for changes in your poo. But what changes?? We'll find out.

The crux of this podcast episode revolves around the paramount importance of colorectal cancer screening, particularly as it pertains to the experiences shared by Bill, who recounts his own life-altering diagnosis. As we delve into the narrative, we explore the profound psychological implications of receiving such devastating news, juxtaposed against the backdrop of everyday life, thereby illustrating the universal nature of this experience. Bill's candid reflections not only serve as a personal account but also resonate as a clarion call to our audience, urging them to prioritize preventive health measures. Through meticulous analysis of his journey, we aim to unpack the intricate interplay between emotional resilience and pragmatic decision-making in the face of adversity. Ultimately, the episode seeks to empower listeners to confront their health with urgency and diligence, fostering a communal commitment to proactive well-being.A Wake-Up Call: The Urgency of Screening for Colorectal CancerThe podcast episode embarks on a poignant exploration of the personal journey experienced by Bill, the host of the Real Estate Sessions podcast, as he navigates the harrowing diagnosis of colon cancer. It is March, designated as Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, and the discussion underscores the critical importance of screening, a message that resonates deeply as Bill shares his own life-saving experience. The episode delves into the psychological processes that accompany such a sudden and life-altering event, illustrating the pragmatism with which Bill approached his diagnosis. This analytical lens serves not only to recount Bill's experience but also aims to provide listeners with actionable insights that could influence their own responses to similar crises. The statistical backdrop, citing that an alarming number of individuals receive the same devastating news daily, frames the narrative within a broader context, emphasizing the universal nature of such life challenges. As the episode unfolds, the hosts dissect the nuances of Bill's emotional response to his diagnosis. Rather than succumbing to despair, he exhibits an admirable capacity for compartmentalization, enabling him to transition into a problem-solving mindset. This shift is not merely a coping mechanism but a strategic approach that empowers him to take charge of his health decisions. The conversation reveals the significance of having a supportive network; Bill's interactions with his family provide a stabilizing force that fosters resilience in the face of adversity. The episode culminates in a compelling message directed at the audience—an urgent call to action regarding the importance of early detection and preventive measures against colorectal cancer, urging listeners to not only prioritize their health but also advocate for their loved ones.Takeaways:The podcast underscores the critical necessity of regular colorectal cancer screenings, especially for individuals over 50, emphasizing that early detection can significantly enhance survival rates and treatment success.The speakers analyze the psychological response to receiving a cancer diagnosis, showcasing how coping mechanisms such as compartmentalization can facilitate better management of overwhelming news.Through personal narrative, the podcast illustrates the profound impact of a supportive family dynamic during health crises, highlighting the importance of pragmatism and emotional regulation in navigating adversity.The discussion reveals that the sharing of personal health experiences within professional contexts can serve as a powerful tool for raising awareness and prompting action among peers, particularly regarding preventative health measures.Listeners are encouraged to actively engage with their loved ones about health screenings, with the message that even younger individuals should advocate for their older family members to pursue necessary examinations without delay.The episode culminates in a poignant reminder of resilience, with the narrative shifting from the weight of a cancer diagnosis to the empowering declaration of 'I will win,' symbolizing hope and determination in the face of adversity.
Three ordinary habits—puzzling, pouring, and brushing—carry extraordinary power over long-term health. We unpack new and notable research on cognitive health, colorectal cancer risk, and cardiovascular disease, then turn it into simple actions you can actually keep.First, we explore why puzzles and other structured brain challenges may strengthen executive function, attention, and visuospatial skills. Large-scale studies of board games and crosswords point to lower dementia risk, and the mindfulness angle is compelling: focused, tactile tasks can quiet stress cycles and improve mood. We're honest about the evidence gaps too—puzzles haven't been trialed as formal stress therapies—but the low-friction habit still earns a spot in your daily routine, especially if you crave small wins or navigate ADHD.Next, we challenge the comfort of “moderate” drinking by looking at lifetime alcohol intake and colorectal cancer. The dose-response signal is clear: more drinks over more years raise risk, with rectal cancer showing the steepest climb. There's practical hope as well—former drinkers see fewer precancerous adenomas—so dialing back weekly totals, adding alcohol-free days, and keeping up with screening can move the needle. The takeaway isn't alarm; it's agency.We close with two underappreciated drivers of heart disease: ultra-processed foods and gum health. Evidence now ties higher UPF intake to more cardiovascular events, while updated scientific statements map how periodontal bacteria and chronic inflammation stress blood vessels, elevate clotting risk, and push up heart attack and stroke rates. The fix is refreshingly doable: shift groceries toward minimally processed staples, build batch-cook routines, brush and clean between teeth daily, and keep regular dental visits. We also name the inequities—insurance gaps, limited access, time off work—and why better oral care access belongs in any heart health strategy.If this helped you rethink one small daily choice, tap follow, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so others can find the show.

In this episode, we unpack three major health headlines that could directly impact your future.First, we explore the alarming rise of colorectal cancer in adults under 50. Once considered a disease of older adults, early-onset colon cancer is now increasing at an unsettling rate. What's driving this surge? Is it diet, lifestyle, environmental exposure, or something else entirely? We break down the latest research, warning signs you shouldn't ignore, and what prevention might look like moving forward.Next, we turn to one of the world's most beloved beverages: tea. From green to black to herbal, research suggests tea may boost longevity and protect your heart, brain, and metabolism. But here's the twist — how you prepare and consume your tea can significantly change its health impact. We dive into what science says about timing, additives, brewing methods, and how to get the most benefit from every cup.Finally, we discuss groundbreaking findings on fish oil supplementation in dialysis patients. A recent study found that a daily fish oil supplement dramatically reduced serious cardiovascular risks in this high-risk population. What makes omega-3 fatty acids so powerful? And could these benefits extend beyond dialysis patients?This episode connects the dots between prevention, everyday habits, and emerging science — helping you make smarter, evidence-based choices for long-term health.Tune in for practical insights, myth-busting, and the science you need to know.www.georgebatista.comwww.myvitaminresource.com - Wellness Resourceswww.truedark.com/wellnesstalk - True Dark Glasseshttps://www.georgebatista.com/courses/wellness-talk-the-essential-guide-to-supplements/
Your poop can reveal early warning signs of serious health issues long before symptoms appear. In this episode, Ben Azadi explains how stool color, texture, and consistency reflect what's happening in your gut, liver, and metabolism. Ben breaks down three major red flags to watch for: pale or clay-colored stool linked to poor bile flow and liver dysfunction, black or tar-like stool that may indicate internal bleeding, and mucus or blood in the stool as a sign of chronic gut inflammation or damage. You'll learn why colon cancer, liver disease, and gut disorders often develop silently, how bile supports fat digestion, detoxification, and hormone balance, and why “feeling fine” doesn't always mean your body is healthy. The episode also covers practical steps to reduce inflammation, support liver health, improve bile flow, and restore healthy digestion through nutrition, lifestyle changes, and proper elimination. This conversation is about awareness, not fear, empowering you to recognize patterns early and take action before small signals turn into serious health problems.
Have you been told that diet doesn't matter for advanced-stage colon cancer? This is false! Learn what to eat and what to avoid if you're faced with a late-stage colon cancer diagnosis, and what you can do to support your recovery.

Heterogeneous2. Sick and living on the edge3. Metabolically inflexible 4. Originates from damaged mitochondria Insulin resistance is one of the most significant contributors to cancer risk. Insulin resistance can lead to metabolic inflexibility. Cancer also migrates to areas of inflammation. Microbiome disruption damages the microbes that protect the body against cancer. Toxicity caused by alcohol, smoking, and pesticides can also increase the risk of cancer.When you combine these risk factors, you significantly increase your risk of developing cancer.Colon cells get their fuel from a compound called butyrate, which is produced when a microbe consumes fiber. Butyrate strengthens the colon's lining, supports its function, and has potent anti-inflammatory properties. Fiber has protective properties against cancer, but if your gut microbiome is compromised, it can make matters worse. The more advanced the cancer you have, the more you'll need to do prolonged fasting. This stresses the cancer cells and deprives them of fuel. The fasting-mimicking diet is also beneficial. If you haven't been diagnosed with cancer, periodic prolonged fasting can help with prevention. High doses of vitamin D3, sun exposure, and oxygen are also protective against cancer. A rotating diet is an incredible tool for cancer prevention. Focus on consuming key nutrients, including vitamin D3, zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, polyphenols, turmeric, cruciferous vegetables, herbs, spices, green tea, and fermented vegetables.

This episode covers: • Colon Cancer in the Young and Why Risk May Start in Infancy New reporting highlights a troubling rise in early-onset colon cancer, including cases in highly fit endurance athletes. Researchers identified a distinct DNA damage signature linked to colibactin, a toxin produced by certain strains of E. coli, with evidence suggesting the damage may occur in infancy. Dave explains why fitness alone isn't protective, how early-life microbiome disruption and low-fiber modern diets stack long-term risk, and why earlier screening and gut-supportive habits like fiber, resistant starch, and circadian alignment matter more than ever.

Dave breaks down why the thymus is central to immune aging, how chronic inflammation accelerates immune decline, and why your immune system responds to microbial signals, not just live probiotics. He explains how consistent fermented foods can act as immune training rather than a one-off supplement strategy.

Magnesium is required for the enzymes that activate vitamin D, and deficiency can block its effects. Dave explains why some people see no improvement despite supplementing vitamin D, how magnesium restored low levels and normalized high ones, and why nutrient networks matter more than megadosing a single vitamin. Source: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251228020010.htm • The Selenium Sweet Spot and Mortality Risk A large population analysis found a U-shaped relationship between dietary selenium intake and mortality. Low selenium increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, while higher intake offered no additional benefit and may increase risk. Dave explains selenium's role in antioxidant defense, thyroid function, and immunity, why deficiency and excess are both problems, and how to approach selenium as a precision nutrient rather than a blanket supplement. Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-29228-3 • Time-Restricted Eating: Why the Window Matters More Than the Meal A randomized controlled trial compared early time-restricted eating, late time-restricted eating, and unrestricted eating. Both time-restricted groups naturally ate fewer calories without dieting, mainly by reducing snacking, while the unrestricted group drifted upward. Dave explains why the real benefit isn't metabolic magic but behavioral control, how eating windows reduce decision fatigue and metabolic noise, and why consistency beats perfection when using time-restricted eating as a long-term tool.
