Overall, colon cancer rates are on the decline.

However, aggressive types of this cancer are on the rise in those under 50. So, the tide may be turning once again.

We already know that colon cancer is primarily lifestyle related.

A sedentary lifestyle, eating too many processed meats and too few whole foods, obesity, and smoking are all known risk factors.

But now researchers have revealed another lifestyle issue that could be behind those rising numbers. And it’s one we ALL should be paying closer attention to.

In recent years, scientists have begun to uncover a disturbing link between colon cancer risk and disrupted circadian rhythm.

This is your internal clock, and it regulates almost every process in your body.

And according to recent research, a disrupted circadian rhythm could accelerate the progression of colon cancer.

The animal study revealed that an off-kilter body clock leads to two gut problems that are connected to colon cancer.

  • First, it changed the diversity and abundance of bacteria in the gut. Gut dysbiosis is already a known risk factor for colon cancer.
  • Second, it led to reduced levels of intestinal mucus, which is supposed to protect the lining of your gut from harmful bacteria.

This means that circadian disruption could contribute to a leaky gut.

However, these changes have also been linked to the development of colon cancer because they expose colon cells to toxins and bacteria while increasing inflammation and oxidative stress.

When it comes to colon cancer, early detection is good… but prevention is even better.

Things like artificial lighting, rotational shift work, excessive blue light exposure, and health problems cause sleep disruptions, leading to circadian misalignments.

However, these three steps can help get your circadian clock back in sync…

  1. Go outside and face the sunrise every day. This sets the master circadian clock in the brain through light stimulus in the eye.
  2. Get sun exposure to eyes and skin at varying times throughout the day, including the sunset.
  3. Keep your lights off or block artificial light at night using red light, candles, blue-blocking glasses, or an app that removes the blue/green spectrum of light from devices/lights.

But don’t stop there. To do a full, pill-free, holistic reset of your body’s vital circadian rhythm check out my Circadian Reset Protocol.

Guard your gut health and work to stay ahead of colon cancer by maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm.
