This is very helpful. Thank you. I read that sauerkraut and pickled vegetables is really good for the colon, and may help in preventing polyp growth.
Well, you do have to keep working on your overall gut health, but those two things are next to inconsequential as to not make a difference.
You have to be a lot more conscientious about what NOT to put down your GI tract to begin with.
This is really gives a positive look on colonic polyps that the patient need not to worry, sir
Please kindly continue posting your much appreciated videos
Thank you very much this was great. you answered all of my question
Great explanation.Thank you so much
Lots of good information provided in a short video, thank you so much!
Can one get another test instead of colonoscopy to detect polyps
I had my colonscopy last week and they removed 2 small polyps hopefully they are benign but my doctor said that they can turn in cancer in future if not removed and now I'm dealing with bloating after eating smal amount is this symptom normal ?
I'm sure your issue resolved but bloating is normal for 24 hours after the procedure.
My paternal uncle died of colon cancer. I had a polyp removed. What are my chances of having colon cancer.
Dr i have 8 mm size polyp.. is it danger
I have a 50mm polyps in my colon. What happens next?
Today was my colonoscopy and 1 polyp was found 4mm im 35 years old
38 and they found one too. precancerous. My friend is 38 and has colon cancer 😲
This video is somewhat informative but also terribly misleading.
It’s not that “polyps can turn into cancer,” it’s that cancerous cells are often HIDING in polyps. Cancerous tumors in the colon can be essentially FLAT.
Also, depending upon the incompetence of the operator, there’s up a 50% chance they miss polyps anyway.
The GI doctor only spends about 6 minutes retracting the scope.
And by the time the doctors have been looking at colons all day their attention is impaired all the more.
The _same_ doctor in the morning is not the same as s/he was in the morning.
PLUS, MOST people go through this procedure only to discover there was nothing found. Basically they have to perform 1,000 colonoscopies to save 27 people. And probably most of those people were overweight or even obese.
Meanwhile, a patient could die in a matter of hours from a botched colonoscopy.
My father had 3 routine “colonoscopies” after age 50. By age 67 he was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. Apparently, the GI doctor did not scope the whole colon. My dad’s tumor was close to the small intestine.
