Around 52,000 people this year will die from colon cancer. Colon cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, and you might be at risk. If you can't go to the bathroom more than 3 times a week, that's a sign of colon cancer. Painful stomach cramps, unexplained weight loss, bloating, nausea and vomiting are other signs of colon cancer.

The fact is that, you can decrease your likelihood of getting colon cancer by about 80% by making changes to your lifestyle. Here are 3 easy lifestyle changes you can make today - that'll help you block colon cancer.

1) Change your diet.

This change won't will seem easy at first, but as time goes by, you'll love your newly improved life. Take in more fibers by eating more vegetables, start reducing cholesterol by drinking green tea (you'll see other amazing benefits just by drinking green tea) and cut down your sugar intake.

The vegetable part is the most important. What vegetables do you like the most? Eat at least 2 servings of them per day. You can supplement this by drinking those vegetable mix drinks that have at least a full serving of vegetables per can. You might not be able to take the taste of these drinks during your first tries, but eventually you'll start to love them.

2) Avoid smoking.

If you're a smoker, you're much more likely to get colon cancer, and other kind of diseases. Inhaling smoke can increase the growth rate of polyps/tumor (abnormal growth of tissue), especially the dangerous kind that plays a prime role in creating colon cancer. There have been many clinical trials that link smoking and colon cancer.

If you don't smoke, avoid many “second-hand smoking” areas as possible. These are usually indoor areas where there isn't any kind of ventilation, and you're virtually smoking as well.

3) Take a colon cleanser.

This is by far the fastest and best way to clean your colon, and increase bowel movements. The colon cleansers come in pill form, & they're more effective than the supplements you might have seen at your local drug store.

These supplements are made for killing parasites (you've got thousands of them in your body), cleaning the internal organs, and preventing colon cancer so effectively that you won't have to worry about colon cleansing after you're done with the cycle.
