"colon-cancer"

Usually originating from abnormal growths known as polyps, which may start as non-cancerous but can progress to cancerous over time.

Cancer develops when the body's normal control mechanism stops working and old cells do not die, instead, they grow uncontrollably to form new, abnormal cells.

For decades, physicians and dieticians have urged people to limit their intake of high-fat foods, citing links to poor health outcomes and some of the leading causes of death in the US, such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
