Today’s episode is to support Bowel Cancer Awareness, and I really wanted to have this conversation because bowel cancer is something we often still think of as an “older person’s disease”. But we’re now seeing more and more younger people being diagnosed, and I think for a lot of us, especially women and mums, it can be really easy to explain away symptoms. We’re tired because we’re busy. We’re bloated because we ate something. Our digestion is off because life is stressful. We tell ourselves it’s probably nothing. So today I’m joined by Professor Robert Bryant, who is a specialist in gut health and Head of Inflammatory Bowel Disease at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Adelaide and also a dad of 4. I’m asking him everything around gut health and bowel cancer. Including: > Why are younger people now getting diagnosed with bowel cancer > Why Australia has some of the highest risk of bowel cancer in the world > Whether having IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), Crohns or being Celiac increases your chances of getting bowel cancer > How can we improve our gut health without relying on supplements > The signs and symptoms you should be keeping an eye on (and advocating for yourself if you have them!) … and SO much more If you’re over 45, you can grab a free bowel cancer screening kit here. If you're under 45 and you really want to get yourself checked, the Jodi Lee Foundation is selling them here. If you need a push to take control of your health - download my app FIT by Danni Duncan or sign up for coaching.
