We just can't stress it enough: colon cancer is an equal opportunity killer but also one of the most preventable of cancers. If you're due for a screening -- every 5 years for those not at high risk, starting at age 45 -- then please make an appointment today. 888.452.0022 ganjllc.com

If you have a family history of colon cancer or there are other factors that might make you a high-risk candidate, discuss your situation with your doctor. Do it for yourself; do it for those you care about.

Diwali, the “festival of lights” observed by those of the Hindu, Sikh, and Jain faiths, celebrates the triumph of good over evil, light over darkness. How important this message is for all of us today. To those suffering physically or mentally, we encourage you to reach out for help. To those blessed with good health, be a light for someone in need.

Happy Halloween 2024
It's Halloween, and kids dressed up as a scary creature 👺 👹 or their favorite action hero 🚀 is a big part of the tradition. For some adults too. We encourage parents and guardians to take simple steps to ensure that whatever treats your child gets this Halloween doesn't result in harmful affects. For example:
👻 🎃 👹
* Remind your child of any food allergies he or she might have.
* Sort through the loot of candy before they devour any of it, and discard whatever looks questionable (Beware of inappropriate gummies!)
* Avoid "sugar-free" candy with artificial sweeteners; they are not gut-friendly.
🍭 🍬
Here's an informative article from our friends at "Eat This, Not That," with some eye-opening information: https://www.eatthis.com/halloween-candies-ranked/

Gas in your digestive system is part of the normal process of digestion. Too much, however, can cause stomach pain. It's annoying. It's embarrassing. It reduces your quality of life. But, depending upon what causes it, excess gassiness can also be controlled.

Here are some steps you can take:
* Eat and drink slowly. Taking your time can help you swallow less air.
* Avoid carbonated drinks and beer. They release carbon dioxide gas.
* Skip the gum and hard candy.
* Don't smoke.
* Get moving.
* Treat heartburn.

If you find this still doesn't resolve matters, it might be time to speak with a GI specialist. Contact one of GANJ's 50 gastroenterologists for a consultation. Simply call 888.452.0022 or visit us online at ganjllc.com
