Vegaration diet: Vegetables, nuts, grains and fiber without red meat is the best diet to reduce the risk of colon cancer. Hunzicuts (in tibet) eat lots of apricots and almonds, and they have the lowest cancer rate in the world (but they also have no stress, no caffeine, no wine, no smoking etc). Non-processed, natural foods give you the best overall health. Go vegetarians!

No: The past two decades' studies have discredited the "pop" claims about roughage and avoiding meat being protective against colon cancer. You need to maintain surveillance against it like everyone else, regardless of your lifestyle choices. You've asked a good question and I hope that you'll focus on maintaining your health in every way. Best wishes.
