Dietary Inflammatory Potential and the Risk of Serrated and Adenomatous Colorectal Polyps
Following a pro-inflammatory diet may pave way for the development of colorectal polyps in men and women.
This study examined whether consistent ingestion of pro-inflammatory foods is tied to the development of colorectal polyps—the precursor of colorectal cancer. Researchers took a detailed look at the nutritional habits of over 5,000 US men and women who underwent regular colonoscopy.
Researchers noticed that polyps were more likely to be present in the colon and rectum of participants on pro-inflammatory diets than in their counterparts who consumed anti-inflammatory foods. This study reported that embracing a pro-inflammatory diet may stimulate the formation of polyps in the colon and rectum of men and women.
