A fit and healthy 39-year-old mother has received a devastating diagnosis of colon cancer and surgeons believe that the food she ate as a child may have activated the disease.
Danni Duncan, a fitness coach from Melbourne, Australia, said she developed colon cancer who started spreading to nearby organs, despite life an extremely healthy lifestyle.
“I am the freaking healthiest person I know, I do more things for my health than someone I know,” she said in a clip placed on her Instagram page.
She added: “The last four years I have eaten 80-90 percent entire foods, we use non-toxic products at home, I don’t drink a lot of alcohol, exercise every day and eat a food diet.”
The mother of three said, without family history of the disease, she was taught by the news, gave her after a colonoscopy last month.
But she said her surgeon had revealed why she, and an increasing number of young people like them, run the risk of developing the deadly cancer.
“He said that chemicals in your food, carcinogenic substances through red meat, burned, barbecued, bacon, ham, these are environmental factors to which we were exposed in the 90s and we did not know the long -term effects so far,” she said.
Mrs. Duncan added that exposure to cleaning products as a child was a different ‘environmental factor’ that the Medic had mentioned as a potential cause.

In the aftermath of her diagnosis, she has parents if they insisted on ‘stopping the feeding of ultra-processed foods for children’.
“It does matter what you feed your children, stop feeding your children things that are not good for them, who are processed, who are full of s ***,” she said.
‘You may think it is going well, it is going well now, but what do you really do with your children?
“What disadvantage do you do later with your children, without realizing it?”
Mrs. Duncan had very few cancer symptoms, with the first feeling that something was wrong Strange, persistent fatigue.
Tests later revealed that this was caused by internal blood loss caused by the tumor that grew in her intestine.
Since then she has undergone surgery to remove the cancer, whereby the procedure also leaves parts of her intestines and her entire attachment.
In a follow -up post, Mrs. Duncan said that tests of the removed tissue had shown that her cancer was stage 2.
This means that the disease has begun to spread outside the intestinal wall and is almost reached near organs. However, it has not grown in the lymph nodes, which is the typical route where cancer spreads wide over the body.
Colon cancer can ensure that you have blood in your shit, a change in intestinal habit or a lump in your intestine that can cause an obstruction. Some people also suffer from weight loss due to these symptoms
However, Mrs. Duncan recently informed that her followers told doctors that there were signs that the cancer had grown to her lymph nodes, so she will need further consultation.
Mrs. Duncan is not only as a young, healthy person who gets a life -changing diagnosis of colon cancer.
Experts have noticed a relevant, mysterious increase in colon cancer in young adults.
A recent worldwide study of the disease showed that the percentage of colon cancer in fewer than 50-year-olds in 27 of the 50 countries is rising.
England is on average an increase of 3.6 percent in younger adults every year – one of the highest increases registered.
Although the disease is linked to obesity, experts have noticed that the disease also appears to prevent fit and healthy patients such as MS Duncan.
Some experts believe that the explanation must be in environmental factors that are exposed to young people to more than previous generations.
Although no ‘smoking gun’ has been found, there are several theories.
One of these is the ultra-processed food, or Upfs, mentioned by the surgeon of Mrs. Duncan.
Others include microplastics, pollution, with one recent study that retains the increase in exposure to E.Coli in food.
Links to UPFS – which contain preservatives, emulsifiers and artificial colors that are not found in a domestic kitchen – are not proven.
Part of the problem is that the system used to classify whether a food is an UPF is a food processing score.
This means that both a junk food meal full of salt, sugar and additives is just as well an UPF as a supermarket bread from Bruin Brood, even though the latter has some health benefits.
That is why it is difficult to unleash which UPFs or their ingredients can be linked to the risk of colon cancer.
Charity Cancer Research UK (Cruk) states that the current proof that UPFs links to every cancer is partly ‘weak’ because of the aforementioned issues.
However, the charity adds that diet and specific foods that we eat are linked to the disease.
It estimates that 13 percent of the cases of colon cancer are diagnosed in the UK every year, are caused by eating processed red meat.
Another 11 percent is linked to overweight and obese due to a poor diet and a lack of exercise.
And 28 percent, almost one in three, is coupled to be people who eat too little fiber, an upfs of nutrients is generally lacking.
Cruk acknowledges, while he acknowledges the rise of colon cancer cases in young adults, emphasizes that the rates are still low, with only about 20 cases diagnosed in the UK every year in patients under 50 years of age.
Every year there are approximately 2,600 new cases of new colon cancer in people aged 25-49 in Great Britain and around 44,100 new cases among all ages.
Symptoms of colon cancer include changes in bowel movements such as diarrhea or constipation, which need the need to more or less often empty your intestines, blood in the stool, abdominal pain, bloated feeling, unexpected weight loss and fatigue.
Stomach pain, a lump in the stomach, a bloated feeling and fatigue include common signs.
Every year in the UK, around 44,000 cases of colon cancer are diagnosed, with around 130,000 in the US.
The disease kills nearly 17,000 British every year, with the death toll rising to around 50,000 in America.
In general, it is expected that just over half of the colon cancer patients will live 10 years after their diagnosis.
However, the survival rates improve enormously if the disease is caught early.
Before stage two patients, such as Mrs. Duncan, it is expected that 85 percent will survive at least five years after the diagnosis.
This drops to 65 percent before stage three patients and only 10 percent before stage four, where the disease has spread over the body.
