LONDON - A five-minute colon cancer test could reduce the number of deaths from the disease by about 40 percent, a new study says.

British researchers followed more than 170,000 people for about 11 years. Of those, more than 40,000 had a "flexi-scope" test, an exam that removes polyps, small growths that could become cancerous.

The test involves having a pen-sized tube inserted into the colon so doctors can identify and remove small polyps. Researchers used the test on people in their 50s. In the U.K., government-funded colon cancer screening doesn't start until age 60.

I have a friend who's a vegetarian and he's being treated for colon cancer.

Linda McCartney was a vegetarian and she died of breast cancer.

Vegetarians also have lower rates of colon cancer than meat-eaters

maybe it is not NO Rates..

but..

Colon cancer has been directly linked to meat consumption.

Did your friend eat meat behind everyone's back?

This study did find associations between higher fruit intake and lower risk of colon cancer. Colon cancer risk was increased by smoking and alcohol use.
