Did you know? Health organizations like the US Preventive Services Task Force, the American College of Gastroenterology, and the US Multi-Society Task Force on colorectal cancer have all updated their guidelines for colon cancer screening. These guidelines recommend fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) every year or colonoscopy every 10 years for average-risk adults 45-75. Screening with a noninvasive FIT can be done in the privacy of your home. Getting screened on time can save your life. Talk to your doctor to find out what’s right for you.
