The Crucial Role of Diet and the Gut Microbiome in Colorectal Cancer Risk

The Mind Gut Connection Newsletter went out yesterday - are you on the list?

In this edition, I discussed emerging evidence of associations between colorectal cancer (CRC) prevalence, and the composition and function of the gut microbiota, suggesting a role of the gut microbiome in colorectal carcinogenesis.

As with many chronic diseases, it is the interaction between genetic and environmental factors that determines the risk for CRC development and outcome.

Environmental risk factors include western dietary habits, smoking, obesity, diabetes, and heavy alcohol consumption, with the gut microbiome playing an important role of mediating between environmental factors, in particular our diet and the development (“carcinogenesis”), formation and progression of CRC.

Make sure to sign up for the newsletter if you have not already (link in bio!) and read the full article on my website.
