Knowledge is the first step toward better health.
Our Northeastern Gastroenterology Associates blog is designed to provide patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals with reliable digestive health information.
Cruciferous vegetablesโsuch as broccoli, cabbage, kale, and cauliflowerโcontain nutrients that may lower colon cancer risk by triggering natural anticancer processes in the body.
These plant compounds help inhibit tumor development, reduce inflammation, and support DNA protectionโall reasons to make them a regular part of your diet.
