Colon Cancer Kills
Colorectal cancer is the second most common cause of death among all cancer related deaths of men and women in Africa. One in 20 will be diagnosed with colon cancer in their lifetime. There were 1,800,000 new cases and 1,000,000 deaths is 2018. Remember that colon cancer is one of the most treatable, and indeed preventable cancers, if detected early. Colon and rectal cancers have a 95% survivability rate with early detection.
Getting Tested is Key
60 percent of all colon cancer related deaths can be prevented with regular screening, but two of every three people of screening age are not up-to-date with colon cancer screening. Colon Cancer screening is recommended beginning at age 45-50 in average risk persons, and 10 years earlier if you have a family history. Research shows an alarming number of younger Africans being diagnosed with CRC, and we are working hard to understand why.
You have Options
Screening guidelines and recommendations from every major authoritative body recommend colon cancer screening, and new guidelines and recommendations give no preference to colonoscopy over fecal immunochemical tests. After taking a fecal immunochemical test, you are considered screened for colon cancer. Positive results should be communicated to your doctor immediately, and with a negative result, your next step is to re-test in a calendar year.

I purchased this product after having a change in stool habits. The Second Generation FIT® test came back positive. I had a 15mm polyp in my ascending colon. I just had the colonoscopy today and the polyp was successfully removed. This test proved to be extremely valuable and accurate.
This product delivers in one easy kit. not fail type of test, with very easy instructions. It can tell you if you should go get that colonoscopy or not before doing anything invasive.Great product! Reasonably priced, and fast shipping too.
This test couldn't be easier, and of course I'm pleased because my result was negative. It took less than 10 minutes, and I had the results in the privacy of my home. I was encouraged by the gastro doc who posted his thoughts that this was what he used in his office.
