⚠️ Pinoygastro tip: Iwasan ang laging pagkain ng ultraprocessed foods 👇
• Instant noodles
• Fast food
• Sugary drinks
• Packaged snacks
• Processed meats (hotdogs, ham etc)

‼️ Processed meats contain carcinogens 🦠
➖When meat is smoked, cured or preserved with nitrates, it forms chemicals like nitrosamines that can damage colon cells and lead to cancer

‼️ Processed foods promote chronic inflammation that promotes cancer growth
😱

✔️Ok lang naman paminsan-minsan, wag lang lagi!

Pls share for awareness 🤗

FOBT/FIT POSITIVE? 💩

✔️Ito ay nagdedetect ng dugo sa colon kahit na walang nakikita sa dumi
✔️Kapag positive ito ay dapat magpacolonoscopy ang pasyente para malaman kung may nagdudugo ba talaga sa loob ng colon
✔️Gaya na lang ng pasyente kong ito, isang malaking polyp pala ang nagdudugo ng patak patak lamang…
✔️Tinanggal ko na ito during procedure at natapos na ang kanyang problema agad and naprevent pa ang colon cancer!

Pls share for awareness 🤗
