As per the healthfinder.gov website, “Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the United States and the second leading cause of death from cancer. Colorectal cancer affects people in all racial and ethnic groups and is most often found in people age 50 and older”. March was initially deemed “Colon Cancer Awareness Month” years ago; this year, the internet is buzzing with helpful tips for preventing colon cancer and NJ Top Docs is happy to highlight their top picks. As per The Centers for Disease Control website, “Risk increases with age. More than 90% of colorectal cancers occur in people aged 50 and older.” Those who screen regularly after their fiftieth birthday can significantly lower their risk of getting colon cancer as well as death. The CDC reminds us that Precancerous polyps and colorectal cancer doesn’t always show signs at first. Many people could have cancer and not even know it. This is why regular screening is so crucial at fifty and older. Some symptoms that may show, however, may include: unintentional weight loss, stomach aches and cramps that don’t go away, and blood found in stool. In a recent NBC Philadelphia article; these five simple, yet highly Read More

St. Patrick’s Day is Celebrated on March 17th, so recipe searches on the internet are heavy with traditional Irish recipes throughout the entire month. One of our favorites is Irish Soda Bread! What better to make a healthier, whole wheat version of the classic Irish favorite? Ingredients: 2 cups whole-wheat flour 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 2 1/4 cups buttermilk Directions: Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in buttermilk. Using one hand, stir in full circles (starting in the center of the bowl working toward the outside of the bowl) until all the flour is incorporated. The dough should be soft but not too wet and sticky. When it all comes together, in a matter of seconds, turn it out onto a well-floured surface. Clean dough off your hand. Pat and roll the dough gently with floury hands, just enough to tidy it up and give it a round shape. Flip over and flatten slightly to about 2 inches. Transfer the loaf to the prepared baking sheet. Mark with a deep cross using a serrated Read More
