Today, we're diving into an important and growing health concern: colon cancer. Recent studies show that cases of colon cancer are becoming increasingly common in younger adults. In fact, the rate has doubled among people under 50 since the 1990s, prompting doctors to lower the recommended age for screening. So what can we do to protect ourselves and our loved ones? I'm joined by Harvard Medical School professor, Dr. Andy Chan, to talk about the importance of colon cancer screenings and how changes to our diet could help reduce the risk of this disease.

Can Gut Health in Childhood Help Prevent Bowel Cancer Later in Life?This week on the podcast, we're talking about something that might feel a little confronting but also incredibly empowering: how our kids' health today could shape their future health tomorrow.Bowel cancer rates are on the rise in young people, and new research is pointing to a surprising contributor — one we've been talking about for a long time here at Natural Super Kids: gut health. In this episode, we will break down what this means for parents without fear, but with practical action in mind.Here's what we cover:What the latest research says about childhood gut bacteria and bowel cancer risk.How early-life factors like C-section births, antibiotics, and diet can impact long-term gut health.Subtle signs that your child's gut may be out of balance — from tummy troubles to mood changes.Easy, gut-supportive changes you can start making right now (even if life feels busy).
Send us a textEpisode Summary: New research on how dietary fats, particularly omega-6 fatty acids like linoleic acid, influence triple-negative breast cancer progression by activating the mTOR pathway, a key regulator of cell growth; role of the FABP5 protein in enhancing cancer cells' sensitivity to omega-6 fats; differences between breast cancer subtypes; broader implications of dietary balance for health.About the guest: John Blenis, PhD is a Professor of Pharmacology at the Meyer Cancer Center at Weill Cornell Medicine. Nikos Koundouros, PhD is a postdoctoral fellow in Blenis' lab.Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Key Points:mTOR pathway acts as a cellular “brain,” sensing nutrients like amino acids, glucose, and fats to regulate growth. Its dysregulation can drive cancer.High dietary omega-6 fatty acids, like linoleic acid found in seed oils, can fuel triple-negative breast cancer growth by activating mTOR.FABP5, a lipid chaperone protein, is overexpressed in triple-negative breast cancer, making these tumors more sensitive to omega-6 fats, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target.Modern diets with high omega-6 to omega-3 ratios disrupt inflammation balance, unlike historical 1:1 ratios, potentially increasing cancer risk.Genetic variations and cancer subtypes highlight the need for tailored dietary recommendations, as blanket nutrition advice may not suit all patients.While omega-6 fats exacerbate existing triple-negative breast cancer, their role in initiating cancer remains unclear, requiring further study.High omega-6 intake may influence other cancers (e.g., prostate, colon) and chronic diseases like obesity, linked to FABP5 and inflammation.Related episode:M&M 200: Dietary Fats & Seed Oils in Inflammation, Colon Cancer & Chronic Disease | Tim Yeatman & GaneSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

We were lucky enough to connect with someone who has truly shaped the grief space: Rebecca Soffer, author, community builder, and cofounder of Modern Loss. In this episode, we talk about how Rebecca turned her personal tragedy of losing both of her parents in her early 30s into a movement that normalizes grief in all its messy, complicated glory.From her days producing The Colbert Report to creating one of Substack's top newsletters on mental health, Rebecca has been using her voice to remind us that grief isn't something to “get over”—it's something we live with, grow through, and even connect around. We get into resilience (the real kind, not the Pinterest-quote kind), the myths we wish people would stop repeating (“everything happens for a reason” can take a seat), and how to hold space for both the pain and the absurdity of loss.Whether you're deep in it or supporting someone who is, this one's for you.Going Thru it Connect with Rebecca on Instagram Modern Loss Subscribe to Modern Loss on Substack Modern Loss Handbook

Another food poisoning outbreak linked to McDonalds several months ago has taken a sinister new twist. One person died and 104 got infected by E. coli they caught from a popular menu-meal item sold at McDonald's restaurants. According to the CDCs National Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases, outbreaks, hospitalizations and deaths from E. coli are on the rise. A new studythis week from researchers at the University of California San Diego believethey've found a potential link between E. coli and colon cancer.

Glickman Professor of Medicine at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine and the Co-Director of Translational Research, Education, and Careers and the Director of Outcomes Research in the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at NYU.
It's a decision that can save your life. Colon cancer screening is crucial because it allows for early detection and removal of precancerous polyps, preventing or significantly improving outcomes for colorectal cancer, which is a leading cause of cancer deaths. When colorectal cancer is detected early, it's often highly treatable and curable.

As part of a Community Health series on The Valley Today, host Janet Michael welcomes Dr. Sophia Villanueva, a fellowship-trained colorectal surgeon with Valley Health Surgical Oncology in Winchester. The discussion highlights March as Colon Cancer Awareness Month and covers key topics such as the rise in early-onset colon cancer, the importance of screenings, and preventive measures. To begin, Dr. Villanueva emphasizes that colon cancer, once considered a disease predominantly affecting older adults, is now increasingly being diagnosed in people younger than 50. "We have seen a rise in early onset of colon cancer. Our guidelines have changed now, so screening starts at age 45," states Dr. Villanueva. Addressing the potential causes of this alarming trend, Dr. Villanueva explains that while some cases have a family history, the majority are sporadic, tied to environmental factors, diet, and lifestyle. "Obesity, not having enough fiber, eating highly processed meat and food, higher fat content in our diet, increased alcohol intake, and smoking all contribute to higher risks," she notes. The conversation shifts to the symptoms of colon cancer. Dr. Villanueva highlights that symptoms often include anemia, changes in bowel habits, abdominal discomfort, rectal bleeding, and unexplained weight loss. "It's important not to dismiss these symptoms, even if you're younger than 50," she advises. When discussing the benefits of early detection, Dr. Villanueva stresses that prompt treatment vastly improves survival rates. "About 90% of colon cancer cases can be treated successfully if caught early," she says. She highlights the importance of routine colonoscopies, describing them as both diagnostic and therapeutic. Janet and Dr. Villanueva delve into the colonoscopy process, aiming to dispel common fears. They explain that the most uncomfortable part is usually the bowel prep, which involves clearing the intestines. "You get sedated during the procedure, and it's not uncomfortable at all," reassures Dr. Villanueva. The conversation also covers alternative screening methods like stool tests. However, Dr. Villanueva underscores that colonoscopies remain the gold standard, as they allow for the removal of polyps during the procedure itself. If diagnosed with colon cancer, the primary treatment is surgery, especially if the cancer hasn't spread to other organs. Dr. Villanueva points out the advancements in minimally invasive, robotic surgeries that ensure quicker recovery, less pain, and faster return to daily activities. "Most people can go home within two to three days after surgery," she explains, highlighting the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols that have revolutionized patient outcomes. The discussion concludes with a fascinating mention of an inflatable colon exhibit at Winchester Medical Center on March 24th, designed to raise awareness and educate the public about colon cancer. Dr. Villanueva encourages everyone to participate, promising an informative and engaging experience. The inflatable colon exhibit is part of Valley Health's initiative to promote colorectal cancer awareness during National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. After its debut at WMC, the exhibit will travel to other Valley Health campuses to continue educating the community. Visitors can walk through the inflatable colon to get a close-up look at healthy colon tissues, tissue with non-malignant colorectal diseases, and tissue with various stages of colorectal cancer. In wrapping up, Dr. Villanueva emphasizes, "If people get their routine colonoscopy, we can save 40,000 lives every year. It's crucial to spread the word that 45 is the new 50 for colon cancer screenings."

Broadcast on KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-13-2025: Dr. Dawn debunks the common misconception about extra virgin olive oil's smoke point indicating oxidation damage, citing new research showing it remains stable and safe even at high cooking temperatures due to its high flavenoid and antioxidant content. She discusses critical timing factors for surgical procedures, sharing research that reveals a "weekend effect" with 9-12% higher mortality rates for surgeries performed on Fridays compared to early-week procedures. The show examines promising AI technology that can detect depression and other mental health conditions through voice patterns alone, potentially improving diagnosis in diverse populations regardless of language barriers. A caller asks about measles vaccines and Robert Kennedy Jr.'s controversial claims, with Dr. Dawn explaining different vaccine types and clarifying that while live virus vaccines can technically cause disease in immunocompromised individuals, this is extremely rare and preventable. Dr. Dawn explores the landmark "Nun Study" tracking 678 nuns over 30 years, highlighting discoveries about cognitive resilience including how early-life linguistic abilities correlate with reduced dementia risk and how some individuals remain mentally sharp despite having Alzheimer's brain pathology. The show discusses promising research on transcranial direct current stimulation for Alzheimer's patients, showing how electrical stimulation of specific brain regions improved verbal learning and word production abilities for up to eight weeks. Dr. Dawn examines psychological factors associated with dementia risk, noting that while negative thinking patterns correlate with cognitive decline, determining causality remains challenging. She shares a breakthrough in ALS research identifying neurofilament light chain proteins as a potential biomarker that correctly identified people with ALS more than 80% of the time and predicted survival rates. The show concludes with fascinating microbiome research on bile acids, explaining how gut bacteria transform liver-produced bile and how certain microbial bile acids can either promote or inhibit inflammatory bowel disease and colon cancer development.
