The American Cancer Society researchers took a closer look at this trend by studying incidence rates by 5-year age groups and by year of birth. They looked at the records of almost 500,000 people 20 years and older who were diagnosed with colon or rectal cancer from 1974 through 2013. The data came from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program registries of people diagnosed with cancer. They included people born in 1890 through those born in 1990.

The study found that for adults ages 20 to 39, colon cancer incidence rates increased by 1% to 2% per year through 2013. In adults 40 to 54, rates increased by 0.5% to 1% per year from the mid-1990s through 2013.

Rectal cancer incidence rates have been increasing even longer and faster than colon cancer, rising about 3% per year from 1974 to 2013 in adults ages 20 to 29 and from 1980 to 2013 in adults ages 30 to 39. In adults ages 40 to 54, rectal cancer rates increased by 2% per year from the 1990s to 2013.

Rebecca Siegel, MPH, Strategic Director of Surveillance Information Services in the Intramural Research Department at the American Cancer Society says the increase in colon and rectal cancer among young age groups is concerning because it affects people during their most productive years.

“Trends in young people are a bellwether for the future disease burden,” said Siegel. “Our finding that colorectal cancer risk for millennials has escalated back to the level of those born in the late 1800s is very sobering. Educational campaigns are needed to alert clinicians and the general public about this increase to help reduce delays in diagnosis, which are so prevalent in young people, but also to encourage healthier eating and more active lifestyles to try to reverse this trend.”

The study also found a narrowing of the gap in colorectal cancer rates between those in their early 50s vs. late 50s. Both colon and rectal cancer incidence rates in adults ages 50 to 54 were half those in adults ages 55 to 59 in the early 1990s, but in 2012 to 2013, they were just 12.4% lower for colon and were equal for rectal cancer.

The most common signs and symptoms include:

• A change in bowel habits, such as diarrhea, constipation, or narrowing of the stool, that lasts for more than a few days
• A feeling that you need to have a bowel movement that is not relieved by doing so
• Rectal bleeding
• Dark stools, or blood in the stool
• Cramping or abdominal (belly) pain
• Weakness and fatigue
• Unintended weight loss

You can lower your risk by:

• Intermittent Fasting
• Avoid chemical or artificial food coloring, flavour enhancer, smell enhancer, growth enhancer, additives, antibiotics, preservatives etc.
• Eating lots of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains and less red meat (beef, pork, or lamb) and processed meats (hot dogs and some luncheon meats).
• Drink plenty homemade, fresh fruit juices.
• Avoid pesticides herbicides fungicides in any of your food item.
• Avoid food contact with harmful plastic material.
• Getting regular exercise.
• Watching your weight.
• Avoiding tobacco.
• Limiting alcohol. The American Cancer Society recommends no more than 2 drinks a day for men and 1 drink a day for women.
