Karachi (Health Desk): Recent medical research has revealed that the number of intestinal (colorectal) cancer cases among people under the age of 50 is rising rapidly worldwide, with a significant increase recorded over the past few years.
According to health experts, the rate of colorectal cancer diagnoses among younger individuals has increased by nearly 20 percent, prompting intensified efforts to identify factors that can help reduce the risk of this disease.
A latest medical report suggests that making yogurt a regular part of the daily diet can help protect against colorectal cancer. The study states that the natural bacteria present in yogurt play an important role in maintaining a healthy digestive system.
The presence of these beneficial bacteria promotes a gut environment that strengthens the body’s immune system and helps reduce inflammation. Medical experts note that chronic inflammation is closely linked to an increased risk of cancer.
The research further indicates that the live cultures found in yogurt help maintain a healthy balance of good bacteria in the stomach and intestines. This not only improves digestion but also contributes to overall better health.
Experts emphasize that consuming yogurt as part of a balanced diet can be beneficial for people of all ages, especially young individuals, and can play a key role in lowering the risk of colorectal cancer.
