Can multiple colon polyps heal on their own?

Multiple colon polyps are a type of colon polyps, mainly caused by the patient's failure to pay attention to intestinal care for a long time. As long as the patient regularly consumes saturated fatty acids, does not drink excessively, changes the smoking habit, and insists on exercising, multiple polyps can still be recovered. If the polyps are more serious, they can be removed through current minimally invasive surgery. Although they cannot heal themselves, they can be cured.

Treatment and prevention:

1. Intake of saturated fat: People who are accustomed to a high-fat diet have a higher risk of colorectal cancer than those who eat a low-fat diet. Be especially careful to limit your intake of excess saturated fat, especially from red meat.

2. Don’t drink too much: Excessive drinking increases the risk of colon polyps and colon cancer. Women should not drink more than one "cup" of alcohol a day (i.e. 150 ml of wine, or 360 ml of beer, or 40 ml of liquor), while men should not drink more than two "cups". If you have a family history of colon cancer, you should especially reduce your alcohol intake to lower your risk.

3. Don’t smoke: Smoking increases the risk of colon cancer and many other diseases.

Be physically active and maintain a healthy weight: Controlling your weight can independently reduce your risk of colorectal cancer. Regular physical exercise can also significantly reduce the risk of colon cancer. Medical experts recommend at least 30 minutes of exercise five times a week. If you can get 45 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise every day, it will be more effective in reducing the risk of breast cancer and colon cancer.

4. Maintain calcium intake: Calcium can help you fight colon polyps and colon cancer, even if you have had these diseases before. Studies have shown that people who take calcium supplements every day have a 19-34% lower risk of recurrence of colon polyps. Foods rich in calcium include milk and other dairy products, as well as broccoli. In addition, vitamin D (which helps the body absorb calcium) has also been shown to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer. You can get enough vitamin D by consuming some animal liver, egg yolks, fish and dairy products fortified with vitamin D. Sunlight can also convert a chemical in your skin into usable vitamin D. If you don't drink milk or get much sun, you might want to consider taking a vitamin D + calcium combination supplement.

5. Eat fruits, vegetables and whole grains: These foods are rich in fiber, which can reduce the risk of colon polyps. In addition, fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants, which can prevent colon cancer. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment Methods for Colon Polyps
