Colorectal cancer: it's preventable, treatable, and beatable!
It's one of the most common types of cancer in men and women, yet it can often be prevented or found at an early stage with regular screening. Regular colorectal cancer screenings are one of the most powerful weapons used to fight colorectal cancer, as screening can often detect colorectal cancer early, when it's small, hasn't spread, and could be easier to treat.
If you're between the ages of 50 and 75, you need to be screened for colorectal cancer regularly.
FluFIT is an innovative program which pairs flu vaccinations with colorectal cancer screening tests. The Fecal Immunochemical Tests (FIT) are easy and non-invasive.
