Any high intake of fiber will prevent Polyps which is where some cancer sells grow. Colon cancer can hit male or female at any age. Better you eat the cereal, broccoli and such the roughage is also important. If colon cancer runs in your family then a colonoscopy is mandatory no matter what your age. Been through it all
2 :
Any fruit or un processed cereals and whole grains. Quaker mutligrain hot cereal is a really good one. You can cook up a big pot of it and refrigerate,then just microwave to eat.
3 :
A male colon is no different than a female colon and there is no way to prevent colon cancer. I have seen professional athletes, vegans and vegetarians with colon cancer and they are often angry over their diagnosis as they believed their excellent diet somehow protected them. The best thing you can do is start screening at 50 years old, or earlier if you have problems or at high risk and sigmoidoscopies at 30 years old if you practice anal sex on a regular basis.
