For Women
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you know?
Colon cancer affects as many women as men.

Colon cancer is the third most diagnosed cancer in women- after breast and lung.

Colon cancer is called a silent disease and symptoms don't always develop until it is difficult to cure.

Women who have had breast cancer are at slightly higher risk for colon cancer.

Women who have had their gall bladder removed are at slightly higher risk.

Colon cancer has been linked to the "western diet" in women-a diet high in refined flour products, sweets, pastas, baked potatoes and red meat.
