Fact: Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the US behind only lung cancer. It’s also the third most common cancer diagnosed in both men and women in the world of gut health. March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month and it’s important because many cases of cancer of the colon or rectum are preventable. Mark Pimentel a leader in gastroenterology and a key member of our Clinical Advisory Board released research challenging long-standing concerns about the relationship between Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and colorectal cancer (CRC). ?? What the Research Reveals ?? Dr. Pimentel’s review analyzed over 600,000 IBS patients alongside 2 million control patients—one of the most comprehensive studies of its kind. Key takeaways include: - No increased risk of colorectal cancer among IBS patients - Significant decrease in colorectal polyps for those with IBS - Supports evidence-based GI care in alignment with ACG guidelines Why This Matters: More than 70 million Americans struggle with digestive diseases, yet misconceptions persist. At Cylinder, we integrate research like Dr. Pimentel’s into our personalized digestive health solutions, ensuring patients receive the right care, backed by science. As we continue to decode the complexities of gut health, studies like this propel us toward better prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of digestive disorders and ultimately, and help us shape the future of GI health. ??

A recent The New York Times article highlights the challenges employees with GI issues and chronic illness face in the workplace. In our recent State of Gut Health in the Workplace report, we found that a staggering 72% of American workers experiencing GI issues report decreased productivity during symptomatic periods, and 67% express a desire for employer-provided GI health benefits. At Cylinder, we recognize the significant impact of digestive health on employee well-being and performance. Our comprehensive digestive health services are designed to bridge this gap, fostering a workplace culture where employees feel comfortable discussing and managing their GI health.
