[00:00:00]Why are younger people getting colon cancer? People are getting colon cancer younger younger ages now. And we know why. This isn't anything new. We have hundreds hundreds of thousands possibly of research on this. The human body, especially the gut, will not function properly unless you have 20 to 30 g of fiber per day, preferably 25 g and higher. Now, what's happening is younger people have these ultrarocessed food diets. They're getting very little fiber in from the time they're born. And so you do this over a decade and a half, two decades with very little fiber in the diet. You end up with a gut that is really not in good health. Okay, the gut has possibly trillions of things going on. Okay, we already know about the hundreds of thousands to millions of things, but there's trillions of things and the gut is so important for your whole body health.
