Answer: Passage
Colorectal cancer occurs in the colon or rectum. It is more common amongst men than women and the majority of cases occur in the over 50s. Triggers are thought to be little or no exercise and excessive weight. A propensity for the disease is also known to be inherited. Diet is believed to play an important role in both the risk of developing the disease and in its prevention. It used to be thought that a diet high in fibre greatly reduced the risk of colorectal cancer, however it is now thought that eating too much red meat and milk products has a much stronger, unfortunately, negative association and increases the risk of the disease notably. It so happens that people with high fibre diets eat less red meat and milk products than people with low fibre diets. People who eat lots of fibre also tend to enjoy a lifestyle with many other factors that may confer a lower risk of contracting colorectal cancer. If there is any accepted truism regarding diet, lifestyle and the risk of contacting colorectal cancer then it is no longer the view that eating lots of fibre has an inverse association. Today dieticians are likely to stress the factors that give rise to greater risk and top of the list of factor will be the consumption of too much alcohol.
