Saturday, July 11, 2009 - Byron Richards, CCN

Two staples of a healthy diet, butyric acid resulting from adequate fiber and DHA from fish, work synergistically to increase the destruction of colon cancer cells.  This was demonstrated by in cell and animal studies.

It is interesting that the ability of natural compounds that have been in our diet for many generations, including others like vitamin D and calcium, have such a profound effect on promoting colon health.  Your gut is a pivotal battleground where health is often won and lost.  It is not at all surprising that good nutrition plays such an integral role in survival – and nutrition-void junk food diets set the stage for disease, including colon cancer.
