Colorectal cancer screening, as many areas of health care, would benefit by having a more knowledgeable public. Knowledge may lead to greater compliance, accuracy, safety, and cost reductions. It literally is a very important matter of life, health, wealth, and death.In the US there are over 140,000 new cases and more than 51,000 deaths every year. Colon polyps often precede colorectal cancer and with screening can frequently be removed preventing the cancer from ever developing. If cancer is discovered by screening the cure rate exceeds 90% when found early. Colorectal cancer screening is a $15 billion dollar a year industry where patient safety and care is often secondary to financial interests.While colonoscopy has value, its promotion as the 'gold standard' of colorectal cancer and polyp screening is in error. The significant limitations of colonoscopy, that frequently result in missed opportunities to prevent or cure cancer, are clearly addressed. Women require a different approach than men, and have been grossly underserved with the present approach to screening. This can be corrected with simple and effective non-invasive measures to enhance accuracy and safety. This alternative is underutilized because of financial considerations that promote colonoscopy. The scientific evidence based recommendations will result in billions of dollars of cost savings by avoiding unnecessary colonoscopies, and the tragedy of lost opportunities to prevent and cure cancer when colonoscopy is the only test relied on.The book takes a critical look at the glaring gaps in the present colorectal cancer and polyp screening programs that could be corrected with the ease of noninvasive screening tests, the avoidance of unnecessary colonoscopy, enhanced safety, and with significant cost savings. Potentially life saving, clearly written, accurate, and highly informative, this book may well be the best investment the reader ever made.

After the intense experience and range of emotion that comes with surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy (or all three), cancer patients often find themselves with little or no guidance when it comes to their health post-treatment. After Cancer Care is the much-needed authoritative, approachable guide that fills this gap. It includes information on how to maintain physical health—with chapters on epigenetics, nutrition, and exercise—as well as emotional health through stress management techniques. The cutting-edge and growingly popular science of Epigenetics has shown that you are not stuck with your genetic history: your choices in diet, exercise, and even relationships can help determine whether or not your genes promote cancer, and therefore determine your propensity for relapse. Your lifestyle has an effect on the most common types of cancer including breast cancer, prostate cancer, melanoma, endometrial cancer, colon cancer, bladder cancer, and lymphoma. The doctors present easy-to-incorporate lifestyle changes to help you “turn on” hundreds of genes that fight cancer, and “turn off” the ones that encourage cancer, while recommending lifestyle plans to address each type. In addition, they share 34 healthy recipes and tips on staying active and exercising, detoxifying your house and environment, and taking supplements to help prevent relapse. With more than three decades of post-cancer-care experience, Drs. Lemole, Mehta, and McKee break down the science into palatable, practical takeaways so that you can drastically improve your quality of life and enjoy many years of cancer-free serenity.
