EDMONTON, Alberta - nvtip -- The unexpected death of Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman, who died at the young age of 43 last week, has not only shocked fans but shined a spotlight on the importance of screening early for colorectal cancers.  While overall cases of colorectal cancer cases have declined, the American Cancer Society has reported a concerning increase in cases among adults younger than 45 years of age.

With colorectal cancers deemed the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths, screening for high risk individuals or those who have experienced changes with no family history is now recommended prior to age of 45. Early screening has proved to be a life saving measure.

Many individuals find the screening process a hassle, messy and time consuming. That doesn't have to be the case as PolypDx™ has made the process easy and affordable as the first and only urine test in the United States. The convenient kit that is mailed right to your door makes early detection easy by picking up on pre-cancerous polyps and is two times more sensitive in the detection of colorectal cancers than traditional fecal tests.
