Fiber: It Does A Colon Good
A Case Study by:Cheryl ReiningMay 20, 2011

Colon Cancer Prevalence
The CDC estimated that approximately 102,900 new cases of colon cancer would be diagnosed in the U.S. in 2010 Annually, approximately 51,370 Americans die of colon cancer; equates
to ~ 9 % of all cancer deaths. 90 percent of all colon cancer cases occur after age 50 years. In the U.S., the risk to age 80 is 1 in 10 for males, and 1 in 15
for females, with an increased risk over the age of 80 Gradual shift downward of right-sided or proximal colon
cancers in the U.S. May be related to improvements in diagnosis and
treatment, increased screening and the removal of polyps in the colon
True increase in the incidence of ascending colon and cecal cancers (2)

Nutritional Implications and Pathophysiology of Colon Cancer
Malnutrition: Loss of appetite Pronounced weight loss w/o dieting Listlessness or apathy Hair and skin changes Swollen abdomen Decreased protein stores → ↓zinc stores → ↓ immuno-
competence → ↑ susceptibility to infection General muscle wasting
Decreased intestinal function Decreased kidney function Decreased cardiac muscle
Decreased gastrointestinal motility6. Pathophysiology of Malnutrition in the Adult Cancer Patient. Available at: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/1097-0142(19861015)58:8%2B%3C1867::AID-CNCR2820581413%3E3.0.CO;2-A/pdf. Accessed April 25, 2011.

Preventative Methods
Colorectal screening Low saturated fat intake High fiber intake!!!

Preventative Methods Cont.
Colorectal Cancer Screening: Detects pre-cancerous polyp(s)
Removal of polyp(s) – stops cancer from devloping Detects cancerous polyp(s)
Surgery required for cancer removal – additional treatment (chemo/radiation) may be required
Saves lives Many people at risk for colorectal cancer not
being screened Estimated that as many as 60% of colorectal cancer
deaths could be prevented if persons aged 50 years and higher were screened routinely

10
Preventative Methods Cont.
Low saturated fat diet Studies dating as far back as 1986 show that
colorectal cancer is associated with high dietary consumption of red and processed meats

11
Preventative Methods Cont.
Fiber!!! Dietary fiber (soluble and insoluble) exerts a
protective role in reducing the incidence of colon cancer Potential mechanisms that modify carcinogenesis in
the colon – Fiber: binds to bile acids increases fecal water (possibly diluting carcinogens) acts as a substrate for bacterial fermentation, increasing
bacterial mass and SCFAs, as typified by butyrate Butyrate – important fuel for the colonic epithelium

Diet High in Fiber
High Levels of Butyrate
Induction of p21(p53-independent manner)
Growth Inhibition

Sources of fiber
Grains – soluble and insoluble fiber Moves material through the digestive tract Decreases mutagenic activity of fecal contents
Vegetables Cruciferous sources also contain isothiocyanates and indoles Onions and garlic also contain sulfides
Fruits Also contains flavones
Beans Contains phenols
Supplements – do not contain additional cancer-fighting constituents
Fiber-enriched foods (cereal, bread, pasta)

Dietary Fiber Intake for Americans
Usual intake of dietary fiber for adults in the United States is only 15 g/day.

27
Additional Recommendation
Add physical activity into daily routine Regular physical activity
is associated with a decrease in the incidence of colorectal cancer
15. Wolin KY, Yan Y, Colditz GA, Lee IM. Physical activity and colon cancer prevention: a meta-analysis. Br J Cancer 100 (4): 611-6, 2009.
28
Dietary Goals
Consume at least 75% of meals (short term) Increase vegetable intake (5 per day) Increase whole grain intake (make half of
the grains whole) Add fruit into daily diet (3 per day) Consume lean protein sources Limit intake of processed and red meats Limit intake of saturated fats
29
In Summary
Plant foods high in fiber reduces the risk of colon cancer
Dietary fiber increases transit time – waste product has less carcinogen contact within the colon and the mucosal lining
Regular physical activity is associated with a decrease in the incidence of colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer screening saves lives

A Bit of Trivia
Did you know that… there are 70 million Baby Boomers (age
50 & older) in the United States? this equates to 20% of all Americans? only 59% of this population will be
screened for colorectal cancer? a large percentage of this population is
seeking nutritional guidance? (What a great opportunity for Dietitians!)
